19th May 2025: Marking its arrival on Mumbai’s culinary landscape, Cosy Box Mumbai sets an ambitious tone with its first major culinary collaboration—a two-week exclusive pop-up by celebrated chef and modern Asian professional, Phankri Bey, beginning May 15th, 2025. Situated in the heart of Lower Parel, Cosy Box introduces itself not with convention, but with a bold, immersive dining experience that reflects its commitment to originality and global excellence.
Renowned for his precision-driven, genre-defying cuisine, Chef Bey presents a tasting menu that blends tradition and experimentation. This specially curated offering delves into fermentation, layered spice work, delicate crudos, and progressive textures—each dish a testament to his fearless culinary philosophy.
Hero dishes such as the Chengdu Mille-feuille Tofu, textured and tinged with Sichuan complexity, and the Layered Charsiu Chicken Roll, where crisp, smoke, and freshness converge, highlight chef’s signature approach—stripped-back presentations that let bold, unorthodox flavors shine.
For culinary connoisseurs, this marks a rare opportunity to engage with Chef Bey’s international sensibilities on home soil. From the “OCEAN” Hamachi crudo to the slow-cooked richness of the “Pull Me Apart” lamb shank, the menu offers technique, culture, and imagination. An interesting finale—Malaysian Honeycomb Cake with miso caramel—delivers sweetness with a whisper of umami, closing the experience with quiet drama.
This inaugural collaboration sets Cosy Box Mumbai apart, signaling a venue unafraid to disrupt expectations. With limited seatings and significant buzz from the city’s culinary circles, early reservations are highly recommended.
