TAPORI
A 200-year-old wooden door from Rajasthan quietly welcomes guests into a world of stories — where the walls come alive with the intricate beauty of Warli, Bastar and Pichwai art.
Every detail at Tapori was envisioned from the ground up by **Chef-Owner Rohit Sharma**, whose passion extends far beyond the kitchen. From the space and its art to the food and the guest experience, Tapori is his most personal expression of India.
At the heart of Tapori is an "à la carte journey through India". Inspired by years of travel across the country, the menu brings together dishes, flavours and techniques encountered in home kitchens, local markets, roadside stalls and regional communities.
Rather than following a fixed tasting menu or presenting India as a single cuisine, Tapori invites guests to explore at their own pace. Small plates, regional specialities, familiar classics and lesser-known dishes come together to create an evolving picture of India — one plate at a time.
The journey spans the many culinary traditions of India’s **28 states**, with each dish rooted in its place of origin while interpreted through a contemporary Tapori lens.
All of this unfolds in a relaxed, approachable setting — bringing the diversity, warmth and character of India to the heart of Bangkok.
MEET THE CHEF-OWNER
"Rohit Sharma" is the founder and Chef-Owner of Tapori and the driving force behind R4 Hospitality. With experience in conceptualising and developing more than **120 restaurants, bars, hotels and microbreweries**, he brings together a deep understanding of food, design and guest experience.
Tapori is his most personal project to date.
Built from extensive travel across India, the restaurant reflects Rohit’s fascination with the food people actually eat — from family recipes and home kitchens to local markets, street-side favourites and regional traditions.
The menu is not intended to recreate the past. Instead, it takes dishes with history and identity and gives them a contemporary expression, while preserving the flavours and stories that make them meaningful.
At Tapori, Rohit’s aim is simple: to create a space that feels approachable, expressive and deeply rooted in India — where every visit can reveal something new.
“Every dish is a memory — of a place, a person, or a moment worth sharing.”. - Chef Rohit Sharma
