Silk Road-inspired dishes with Persian, Indian, Turkish influences
"Following a bash that includes an $85 five-course menu, open bar, global DJs, and passed bites, go back to Union Market the next day for a more relaxed three-course Silk Road brunch. And yes, there’s an optional bottomless Moët & Chandon pairing if you’re still celebrating." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Khachapuri is mixed right in front of me as a raw egg is stirred into molten cheese for peak creaminess; this version leans playful, built on naan and finished with everything‑bagel‑esque spices." - Adele Chapin
"Union Market district’s recently Michelin-recognized restaurant pulls spices from along the Silk Road to upgrade classic holiday dishes in a four-course, prix fixe meal ($62 per person) for its first Thanksgiving night. Highlights include naan with tandoori pumpkin butter, honey-berbere spiced turkey breast, and ghee and sage stuffing." - Vinciane Ngomsi

"At Karravaan Chef Sanjay Mandhaiya takes you along the Silk Road with a wide-ranging, shareable menu built for bold flavors and generous portions; start by swiping the smoky eggplant dip layered with labneh, pureed Italian eggplant, caramelized onions and pomegranate seeds onto house-made flatbread, then enjoy perfectly cooked medium-rare duck breast glazed with harissa honey set over forbidden rice, and impressive presentations like fluffy jasmine rice tucked with seasonal vegetables served in a colorful tagine." - The MICHELIN Guide
