Q. What made you think of opening a bistro that would serve Indian food?
A. It’s been 10 years. I travel three times a year to India for my furniture productions, and I always felt that we deserved a creative Indian restaurant as this was missing in Paris.

Q.The name MG Road is a curious one for your bistro? What was the inspiration behind it?
A. Well, it took me six months before I could find a name. I found it perfect for few reasons; first there is an MG Road everywhere in India so it doesn’t limit my menu to a specific zone. I also like that Mahatma Gandhi is in the name — as a Godfather. And MG Road with the world ‘road’ is giving a European twist to reflect what we offer.
