Khalid Gondal has the bottle in restoration. It already manages three Indian companies: one in Vieux-Lille (Home of India), one near the Lille-Flandres station ( Jai Ho) and one in Douai (Namaste). However, he already has a very symbolic bond with the youngest, Kama, which opened on May 10 at the corner of rue Saint-Aubert and rue du Puits Saint-Josse.
” When I started in 2013, I wanted to settle in Arras, a city that I love and that is very interesting to me. But I never found a suitable place for me “, said the manager, who hails from north India. So he ended up cutting his teeth in his adopted city, the capital of Flanders, where he completed his studies before working for sixteen years as a computer scientist in a large French group.
“One of the best start”
Khalid Gondal came close to realizing his Arras dream in 2018, in the same place occupied for seven years by the restaurant ‘Ptit Paradis, but the opportunity finally materialized this year. Like what, patience pays. An interior designer has revamped the interior, in line with his concept: modern India,” far from cliché “. Bonus: ” We’ve worked a lot since opening, it’s one of my best starts “, he appreciated.
The restaurant offers an affordable formula for lunch (€10 for one of four dishes to choose from – including chicken tikka massae and two vegetarian -, with naan; €14 starter – main course or main course – dessert; and €17 starter , dishes and desserts). The place had about fifty seats, not counting the terrace.
