North Indian restaurant SanSara, located at Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore, is introducing a refreshed à la carte menu from 19 November 2026. Led by Master Chef Pannalal Nath, the update brings new seafood dishes, contemporary small plates and a duck biryani to the table, while keeping several of the restaurant’s established favourites.
The menu draws on North Indian cooking traditions, including those of Awadh, but also makes room for ingredients and combinations that are less conventional. Think tandoor-cooked octopus, avocado and spinach cakes, and a biryani made with duck leg confit.
What’s new on SanSara’s menu?
Among the larger dishes, the Tandoori Octopus (S$36++) is cooked in the tandoor and paired with smoky yoghurt chutney. Meat lovers can look to the Barrah Chops (S$56++), featuring grass-fed New Zealand rack of lamb marinated with ginger and garlic, served with mashed aubergine, smoky yoghurt chutney and olive goat cheese naan.
For seafood, the Ratna-E-Samundar Curry (S$54++) combines Hokkaido scallops, prawns, mussels and squid in a sauce made with turmeric, fenugreek and coconut cream. The Duck Leg Biryani (S$42++), meanwhile, pairs duck leg confit with aromatic basmati rice.
Small plates with a contemporary twist
There are several new options for diners who prefer to share a selection of dishes. The Lotus Papdi Chaat (S$22++) uses crisp lotus chips, while the Avocado Ki Tikki (S$28++) is a pan-seared spinach and avocado cake topped with finger lime caviar.
Another addition is the Kurkure Kekda Soft Shell Blue Swimmer Crab (S$32++), accompanied by house-made romesco sauce and pickled vegetables. To finish, the Exotic Fruit Chutney (S$21++) brings together coconut ice cream, passion fruit coulis and meringue.
Familiar North Indian favourites remain
The menu refresh is not a replacement for SanSara’s signature dishes. Returning options include Gosht Ki Galouti (S$38++), Shahi Gosht Dum Biryani (S$39++) and SanSara-Nasila Dungar Lal Maas (S$45++), a Rajasthani lamb shank curry flavoured with Mathania chilli and rum.
Vegetarian classics such as Sarson Ka Saag Makai Di Roti (S$26++) and Dal-E-SanSara (S$27++) also remain available.
Chef Nath, who has spent 25 years working with India’s diverse food traditions, describes the new menu as an effort to retain the dishes diners know while exploring different ingredients and preparations. This balance between established recipes and experimentation is the central idea behind the refresh.
