Stories in Flavour • Hamachi Crudo
A celebration of autumn’s finest ingredients, layered with subtle Indian influences.
Our Hamachi Crudo features delicate, buttery amberjack paired with charred plum vinaigrette, compressed plums, fresh figs and daikon radish, bringing together the sweetness, acidity and freshness of the season.
Finished with black garlic oil, aromatic bay leaf oil and black lime gel, these ingredients are rooted in traditional preservation techniques, where limes are salted and sun-dried to develop their distinctive depth and complexity.
Try it today on our new fall & winter menu. #punch

Rooted in Spice • Our Chaat Masala
Every spice has a story. In our new series, Chef de Cuisine, Manek Singh takes us beyond the plate to explore the spices that shape our dishes.
First up, our house-made Chaat Masala. A carefully balanced blend of spices bringing tang, warmth and depth to our samosas, Chaat Slaw and other dishes across the PUNCH menu.
Crafted in our kitchen, and unmistakably unique to PUNCH.

We are immensely proud to announce that PUNCH has been selected for the 2026 MICHELIN Guide Toronto, a remarkable milestone less than a year since opening our doors.
What began as a vision many years ago to bring the spirit of modern London, layered with Indian flavour, to Toronto, has been incredible to watch come to life. From family recipes passed down through generations, to their modern interpretations on our menu, every dish tells a story of heritage, creativity and the culinary traditions that inspire us.
This recognition is a testament to the vision of our ownership, the passion and creativity of our culinary team, led by Executive Chef @chefmandar and Chef de Cuisine @iammaneksingh , and the dedication of our front-of-house team, who bring PUNCH to life every day.
To our guests and community, thank you for embracing our vision, gathering around our tables and being part of our story from the very beginning. We are incredibly grateful to share this moment with everyone who has helped bring us here.
This is just the beginning. #PUNCH

Nous sommes fiers d’annoncer que PUNCH, le restaurant de l’Hôtel Le Germain Toronto, FAIT SON ENTRÉE AU GUIDE MICHELIN dans le Guide MICHELIN Toronto 2026, une reconnaissance remarquable moins d’un an après son ouverture.
PUNCH est né d’une vision imaginée il y a plusieurs années: faire découvrir à Toronto l’esprit du Londres moderne, rehaussé de saveurs indiennes. La voir prendre vie au fil des mois a été une expérience exceptionnelle. Des recettes familiales transmises de génération en génération aux interprétations contemporaines qui composent le menu, chaque plat raconte une histoire de traditions, de créativité et de patrimoine culinaire.
Cette reconnaissance témoigne de la vision de nos propriétaires, de la passion et de la créativité de notre équipe culinaire, menée par le chef exécutif Mandar Kulkarni et le chef de cuisine Manek Singh, sans oublier toute notre équipe en salle, qui fait vivre l’expérience PUNCH chaque jour.
Et ce n’est que le début. #PUNCH

Toronto was never supposed to be home, but somewhere along the way, it became exactly that.
My home away from home! Where I found love, peace, a foundation, a career, and most importantly, where I found myself.
This is Toronto, through my eyes. 🌆✨

Somewhere between the cliffs, the ocean, and the quiet, Newfoundland stole a little piece of my heart ♥️

Stories in Flavour • Few dishes carry the prestige of the Wellington. Created in honour of the Duke of Wellington following the Battle of Waterloo, this British classic has become a true test of culinary craftsmanship.
At PUNCH, we honour its heritage while giving it our own point of view. Beef tenderloin, or celeriac for a vegetarian alternative, is layered with mushroom duxelles infused with panch phoran and Indian spices, wrapped in golden pastry, and served with a richly spiced Rogan Josh jus or vegetable demi-glace.
A celebration of British tradition, reimagined through the bold flavours of India.

Our kitchen officially turned into a specialty coffee bar ☕️✨
Upgraded from the Breville Infuser to the Fellow Espresso Series 1 and I fear my chef husband may never stop talking about it😭
No but seriously… just look at her.
