"With a cookbook about to drop in 2026, a Chef’s Table Netflix episode, a fresh Michelin star, and a move to a more spacious location in Centro, Masala & Maíz is maturing into a true fine-dining restaurant. The menu is mostly new, but stellar standbys remain, including shell-on prawns in ghee infused with vanilla and esquites, traditional Mexican corn kernels with fresh coconut milk, ginger, turmeric, and topped with purslane. The restaurant's captivating mix of Mexican technique and Indian touchstones has been refined, and the restaurant is all grown up in a sexy space that reflects its evolution. Look for the whole roasted kuku poussin and a vinegary mussel dish with salsa balchao, plus an exciting cocktail menu and coffee, to boot." - Scarlett Lindeman, Naomi Tomky
