Da Gama, located on N. Shepherd in Houston, is a must-visit restaurant for anyone looking for a unique dining experience. This Indian-inspired cafe and natural wine-cocktail bar is owned by Rishi Hospitality, the same team behind Oporto Fooding House & Wine and The Queen Vic Pub & Kitchen. Da Gama serves up post-colonial Portuguese-Indian plates and baked goods with creative cocktails and natural wine.

One of the standout dishes at Da Gama is their new power bowl, which includes house hummus, chilled roasted vegetables, tandoori chickpea & quinoa, arugula, avocado, crispy seev & radish. It's perfect for those hot summer days and can be customized with your choice of protein.

For dessert lovers, Da Gama offers a halwa inception - warm halwa swirl cake with ricotta whipped cream and cinnamon. You can even add a scoop of their house-made carrot halwa ice cream for an extra dimension.

Da Gama also welcomes the spring/summer season with seasonal items like their Watermelon Chaat salad - a delicious and fresh dish with pickled cucumbers, feta cheese & chutneys.

And let's not forget about their new cocktails! The Boa Vida features washed campari with a coconut water cube, while the Rose Gin & Tonic has fresh strawberries for added flavor. For something more refreshing, try the Cucumber Hibiscus Caipirinha with muddled fruit.

Overall, Da Gama is a fantastic restaurant that offers unique dishes and drinks that are sure to satisfy any foodie's cravings.
