In a city that never sleeps, where time blurs and rest is a rare luxury, TAAMA offers a tranquil escape in the heart of Dubai with a space that supports a return to the soul.Nestled within the serene embrace of Sohum Wellness Sanctuary founded by Tanya Mansotra, and created to provide Ayurvedically inclined healing space, TAAMA welcomes a new a la carte and beverage menu: a celebration of conscious nourishment, elemental energy and pure culinary intention.
TAAMA is more than just a restaurant. It is a sensory journey that goes far beyond the plate, from the gentle flow of positive energy in the space itself, to the way the dishes are prepared, the ingredients sourced and the intent to nourish the body from within; the new menu is designed to re-align one’s Chakra and re-set the soul from the inside.
The new menu brings about a new chapter in TAAMA’s story. One of vibrant, high-vibrational ingredients that come together with wild herbs and nutrient-dense superfoods to create dishes that heal, ground, and uplift. The wellness focused menu is thoughtfully structured by the cooking methods and presentation, the menu invites guests to connect with their meals and explore the colourful realm of plant-based food, whether through its raw purity, the warmth of comfort, or the smokiness of charcoal-grilled creations.
Among its most distinctive features are the Chakra Bowls, a radiant lineup of dishes aligned with the body’s seven energy centers. From the earthy nourishment of the Root Chakra; a masterful mix of beetroot, wild neem, granola, apple, strawberry, pomegranate and redcurrant, to the sweetness of The Crown; blending açai, cacao nibs, maca, peanuts, granola, maple syrup, coconut and dragon fruit, each bowl is a symphony of colour, texture, and spiritual balance. Warm plates like the Khichdi; boasting flavours of cumin, jasmine rice, mung beans, mustard seeds and curry leaves, as well as the Tempeh Noodles; with soba noodles, Asian dressing, napa cabbage, carrot, peanuts, sesame seeds and lemongrass curry, offer cosy, soulful alternatives – while vibrant small plates like Spinach Croquettes, Artichoke Skewers and Broccolini Goma delight in both flavour and nourishment.
The a la carte menu is also broken up into a selection of Roll Ups; artistic maki-style vegetable creations layered with unique flavours and tastes, alongside the Toasted selection, full of wholesome sandwiches on house-made sourdough for those in search of something heartier.The best part is saved for last, with a range of desserts that present imagination with integrity, resulting in a sweet alchemy. From Peanuts; a reimagined Snickers Bar, to the show-stopping Pavlova; with berry coulis, Chantilly, fresh berries and a sugar dome, the broad range of flavours has no limit.
The excitement doesn’t stop there as TAAMA’s beverage program further mirrors the philosophy of its food and the underlying values of Sohum Wellness Sanctuary – deeply nourishing and spiritually attuned. The new menu features a selection of High Vibrational Smoothies designed to restore equilibrium and provide distinctive health benefits such as the Orian; mixing maca, avocado, papaya, coconut and honey, which is designed to elevate memory performance.
Guests can also enjoy Rituals Lemonades, infused with planetary inspiration and Ayurvedic elixirs crafted around the ancient Doshas, creating personalised blends designed to aid each individual and their differing needs. Signature sips like the Saturn Retrograde and Mercury Retrograde invite celestial reflection and cosmic awareness.Guests cannot miss TAAMA’s Ceremonial Cacao offerings, created to tap into the heart and described as a gift from the Gods, the cacao is sourced from the Maya Mountains of Belize and are designed to enhance circulation, mood, emotional depth, energetic coherence and connection with others. Herbal teas, loose-leaf infusions, and detoxifying shots further unite to create a collection of tasteful sips that energise from within.
In an age of fast living, TAAMA reclaims the essence of nourishment as a form of healing, joy, and self-love. So, whether seeking a soul-soothing meal, a space to reset or a moment of stillness under the sanctuary’s iconic Tree of Life, TAAMA welcomes guests to rediscover the beauty of intentional dining and the impact it can have on one’s soul.
