Satya Chai Lounge Takeover

Embark on a journey through India and eat your way through street food-inspired snacks and curries with friends, whilst washing them down with cocktails inspired by the Indian spice trail. Sammy Akuthota of Auckland’s Satya, Satya Chai Lounge and GG x Flamingo comes to Chow for one day only, bringing his family recipes and a hint of South Indian flair.

Sammy takes inspiration from his favourite street foods and old family recipes, showcasing dishes without holding back on authenticity. He and the Chow team have created a full takeover menu ranging from Goan-spiced ‘kurryage’ chicken and cheesy deep-fried paneer to Indian yakitori. Satya Chai Lounge cocktail favourites such as the chai Old Fashioned and spiced rum and tamarind Negroni will make an appearance, including some of Auckland’s coolest craft beers. Sammy will also be selling spices from his pop-up Satya spice shop during the day.

Satya Chai Lounge is all about flavour explosions of Indian street food and sharing the joy. Aucklanders have been enjoying the Satya offering from Sandringham to Mt. Eden and Karangahape Road to Garage Project pop-ups. And now it’s time for Wellington to get a taste.
