Cumin is an Indian Fusion restaurant whos concept is to create a twist on what is considered traditional Indian food and fuse it with other cuisines. This food concept inspired the design of the restaurant. Cumin diverts itself from the typical Indian restaurant archetype and introduces a twenty first century take on what an Indian restaurant should look and feel like.
The major attraction of the restaurant is the slat wall which divides the fine dining area from the bar/cafe area. The concept is derived from "Jalis" or screens. The slat wall acts as a filter between the two distinct spaces. The dining side having a refined, clean feel and the bar/cafe having a fun feel.
