Kolkata/IBNS: Kolkata’s retro dining restaurant has opened their all new boutique outlet at Southern Avenue, extending the nostalgia of a bygone era of the 1940s to 1970s to South Kolkata where Anglo Indian Food and Live Music culture was much revered.

With a seating arrangement for over 60 people, the decor of the boutique outlet has been planned in accordance with its retro theme, with every minute detail been paid heed to, therefore reminding one of the exuberant charm that the 50s, 60s and 70s era boasted of.

With Chapter 2, we chose to remember the Calcutta of those bygone days and recall the swinging 1960s and 1970s when the city used to party throughout the night, as we embark on another beautiful journey, bringing the retro dining experience right to the heart of South Kolkata.

"Both of us had undertaken a detailed research on European culture and their riveting music by touring England and various other European countries to make Chapter 2 the perfect amalgamation of retro food, music and ambiance which takes our patrons to a nostalgia laden experience."

The restaurant offers a number of specialties like Prawn Cocktail, Pork Chops, Seafood Risotto, Egg Benedict, Prawn On Toast, Beef Stroganoff, Schnitzel , Chocolate Mousse and Caramel Custard among many others a thus bringing together all the specialties of Kolkata’s iconic old world continental restaurants under one roof.
