The Crown Melbourne launches Kolkata Cricket Club. French diner meets Indian mastery where Mischa Tropp’s butter chicken shakes the room

Crown Casino Melbourne, by its nature is glitzy. Flashy lights, extravagant interior, alluring sounds. There’s an electrifying atmosphere that has no off switch. So, when Kolkata Cricket Club opened, it seemed like a no brainer to follow in the same footsteps. Mischa Tropp, the young superstar chef with Indian heritage, has somewhat different ideas.

Yūgen pushes the culinary experience beyond mediocre to execute the extraordinary – exquisite dining  in an underground cave. I’d heard a little about the venue before I went and...
