This South Indian Restaurant Has Been Ranked No. 1 In New York For 2025
An Indian restaurant in New York has just been named the best in the city for 2025. This is a historic achievement by Semma, a Michelin-starred establishment that serves diverse South Indian delicacies. Semma topped the prestigious annual list of 100 best restaurants by The New York Times. This year, only the top 10 restaurants in the city have been ranked. The remaining 90 have been named but do not have a specific ranking, unlike previous years. Following Semma on the 2025 list are Atomix, Le Bernardin, Kabaw, Ha's Snack Bar, King, Penny, Sushi Sho, Szechuan Mountain House and Tatiana by Kwame Onwuachi. In 2024, Semma occupied the 7th position. It was one of four Indian restaurants that made it to the list of 100 best. This year's list was curated by the New York Times' interim restaurant critics, Priya Krishna and Melissa Clark, along with editor Brian Gallagher. The trio revealed that they picked the final 100 from a total of more than 20,000 restaurants in the city. They noted, "Of course, there are more than 100 amazing restaurants in New York. But these best answered the questions: Where would we send our friends? Which places are worth a splurge? Worth an hour-long subway ride?" About Semma New York Semma in Greenwich Village is helmed by Chef Vijay Kumar, who hails from Tamil Nadu. The restaurant spotlights lesser-known dishes from different parts of South India in order to celebrate its rich culinary heritage. While describing Semma, The New York Times' food critic Priya Krishna states, "New York is teeming with Indian restaurants. Yet before Semma, a deeply personal tribute to the chef Vijay Kumar's upbringing in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, the city's diners had never seen Indian food like this. Punctuated with chiles, coconut and earthy curry leaves, Semma's flavours are lingering and loud, yet restrained. Its dosa is the best in the city: a crisp specimen that's heady with fermentation and slicked with ghee and fiery gunpowder spice. Semma altered the course of Indian dining here, and four years on, Mr. Kumar's food continues to feel fresh." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Semma (@semmanyc) Semma has won several other accolades in the past. It currently holds its Michelin star for the third consecutive year. While there are several acclaimed Indian restaurants in New York, Semma is the only one in the city with a Michelin star at present. Semma is part of the Unapologetic Foods restaurant group, which also includes Dhamaka (another popular Indian restaurant in New York).

Chandu Salimkumar slams Vinayakan: 'Same person who praised my father now criticises him'
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) A Facebook post by actor Vinayakan has triggered sharp reactions in the Malayalam film industry, particularly from Chandu Salimkumar, son of veteran actor Salim Kumar . Vinayakan, in a now-deleted post shared on the last day, said against individuals who speak out against drug abuse, mocking them as 'alcohol addicts' who have 'ruined all their organs' yet preach to the youth. His controversial post equated alcohol, cannabis, and even women as intoxicants, questioning the credibility of those attempting to raise awareness. Vinayakan also called such people 'dead bodies' who should stay away from public platforms and claimed cinema itself was a drug, accusing others of trying to push their children into the industry for profit. Soon after the post went viral, and later deleted, the netizens started speculating whether the 'Jailer' actor was aiming at Salim Kumar. Vinayakan steps into controversy over 'Who is Oommen Chandy' statement Chandu Salim Kumar's response - 'When Vinayakan first met me…' Chandu Salimkumar hit back directly in a Facebook thread. Recalling a personal interaction, Chandu wrote, 'When Vinayakan first met me, he said, 'These so-called senior actors always kept me at a distance. But your father… he was the only one who stood by me.' That's the kind of person my father is. And now, the same person is saying all this.' Chandu called out Vinayakan's contradictory behaviour, noting that his current stance disregards the compassion once shown to him. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo He added that people battling addiction and striving to recover deserve to speak about their experiences and spread awareness. 'Only those who've lived through it know its true impact,' he wrote. 'If someone made a remark about your mother or sister…' Chandu also took issue with the implications of Vinayakan's messaging at public events. 'You can't go to community programs and say, 'Everyone go drink and ruin your liver like I did,'' he said. He emphasized that people are trying to rebuild their lives and that condemning their efforts sends a dangerous message. Chandu questioned whether speaking against drug use is now considered a crime and closed his rebuttal with a pointed analogy: 'If someone made a remark about your mother or sister at home, would you say it's just the language? You wouldn't. Then why make light of this?' On the work front, Vinayakan will be next seen in Mammootty's 'Kalamkaval'.

Wicked: For Good trailer drops, Ariana Grande's Glinda returns to shake up Qz like never before!
Get ready to defy gravity all over again because the first teaser for Wicked: For Good is here, and it is EVERYTHING. Fans of the spellbinding Broadway blockbuster are buzzing after the trailer dropped on Wednesday, June 4, confirming that the enchanting saga is far from over. Wicked 1 For those who binged the first Wicked film last November and fell head-over-heels for Cynthia Erivo's fierce Elphaba and Ariana Grande's dazzling Glinda, the wait has been worth it.

Tensions are high, the magic is stronger, and the drama? Definitely crazy! About Wicked: For Good Director Jon M. Chu, alongside screenwriter Winnie Holzman and composer Stephen Schwartz, revealed they split the Wicked adaptation into two films after realising the story could not be contained in a single movie. They wanted to dive deeper into the characters' lives, keeping every iconic song, and even adding new ones. Chu and his team were committed to delivering the full Oz experience, no cuts, no compromises. Filming for both parts wrapped up simultaneously back in January 2024. Erivo marked the milestone with a fierce Instagram post showing a silhouette of her on a broomstick, captioning it: 'That's a wrap for me, Elphie out!!' The excitement was palpable, and now fans can finally see where this magic train is headed. Wicked success The first Wicked film was a colossal hit, smashing box office records with a $114 million opening weekend in North America and outshining Gladiator II on the same release date. It also garnered massive international success and pulled in 10 Oscar nominations, cementing its place as a cultural phenomenon. With Wicked: For Good looming on the horizon, Broadway fans and Ari's stans alike should prepare for a wickedly good time. The teaser is only the beginning, the full spellbinding sequel promises more heart, more drama, and more show-stopping songs. So, mark your calendars, witches and wizards: the Land of Oz is calling again, and Ariana Grande's Glinda is ready to shine brighter than ever.
