## Meet your expert

### My story

We started Lair dreaming of a spot that felt a bit secret, like a modern cave where black and grey blend and curiosity runs wild. Drinks here aren’t just drinks - they talk back. Our team’s the heart, not just us. We've had wild nights with guest bartenders, big awards, but the best bit? Folks from everywhere saying they feel at home. That’s the Indian hospitality we love showing off. We’re all about mixing borders, learning, and celebrating local flavours, one night at a time.

### My work

- **Immersive Mixology & Pan-Asian Dining**: We serve cocktails that tell stories, plus sushi, dim sum, and small plates with a twist.
- **Cocktail Coalition Delhi**: We team up with top global bars to craft menus, using Indian ingredients and swapping ideas.
- **The Lair Vibe**: Energy, music, and real hospitality in a modern den. Awards are cool, but feeling 'at home' means more.
- **Endangered Indian Ingredients**: We use rare local flavours in drinks, like Kozhikode Negroni and Coorg Highball, putting India on the cocktail map.
