In a week shadowed by uncertainty, comedian Kapil Sharma chose to respond with what he does best — humour and resilience. Days after his newly launched café in Canada, Kap's Café, became the target of a shocking shooting incident, Sharma made his first social media post. He shared a teaser for the Saturday episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, reminding fans that the show — and life — must go on.While the entertainment world and his fans reeled from the news that Kap's Café in Surrey, British Columbia, had been attacked — allegedly by Khalistani terrorist Harjit Singh Laddi — Sharma chose not to dwell on fear. His post on Instagram was all about his Netflix show, teasing an episode packed with laughter, music, and global glamour. Featuring Vijay Varma, Jaideep Ahlawat, Pratik Gandhi, Jitendra Kumar, and K-pop star Jackson Wang, the video shows Jackson teaching dance steps to the actors, and Kapil goofing around with his signature wit.The cafe, co-managed by Sharma's wife Ginni Chatrath, had barely opened its doors before it was riddled with bullets. According to IANS, at least nine rounds were reportedly fired at the building on Thursday. Thankfully, no injuries were reported. The aesthetically designed café — with its pastel pink-and-white interiors, crystal chandeliers, and a dessert menu featuring everything from croissants to lemon pistachio cake — had been drawing social media buzz for its warm vibe and celebrity charm.Kap's Café later released an emotional note on Instagram titled 'A Message From Heart', describing the incident as 'heartbreaking' and expressing shock at the violence. The message was about the team processing the shock, but not giving up. The team also thanked the local police in Surrey for their swift response and the community for their support, promising to continue spreading joy and coffee without fear.Back in India, the repercussions of the attack were felt too. Mumbai Police increased security at Kapil Sharma's Oshiwara residence, underlining the seriousness of the threat.

Taste of Korea in Visakhapatnam: Nuinui serves authentic dishes in a cozy setting
The first thing that strikes me as I walk into Nuinui, the new Korean restaurant located in a quiet corner of Kirlampudi layout in Visakhapatnam, is the softness of the space. The palette leans heavily into pinks and muted neutrals, creating a sense of ease that nudges you to slow down. It is not over-designed or self-conscious. There is warmth in the layout, in the placement of Korean script on the walls and in the hum of Korean music playing overhead. The interiors, coupled with the aroma of spices, signals from the outset that this is not a superficial nod to Korean food culture. It is an attempt to present it sincerely. Nuinui, which translates to 'sister-sister', reflects the bond between its founders, Ji Hye Ahn (Gigi) and Junghak Lee (Abby), who are originally from South Korea. Their journey to Visakhapatnam is rooted in personal memory. When Abby visited the city with her brother-in-law, both were unexpectedly reminded of their grandmother's home back in Korea. There was something about the rhythm of the place, its friendliness, its scale, and its understated appeal that made them feel at home. That connection, as Gigi puts it, was what led them to set up here. 'There wasn't one specific moment before we opened that confirmed our decision,' she tells me, 'but once Nuinui began serving, the love and acceptance we received from the people of Vizag truly stood out.' The menu offers a curated mix of Korean dishes that are recognisable to those who have spent enough hours watching K-dramas. Tteokbokki, the chewy rice cakes simmered in spicy gochujang sauce, come in generous portions and deliver a depth that's more fermented than fiery. Bibimbap is served traditionally with rice, vegetables. Its satisfaction lies in the textural variety of each bite. The jjajangmyeon, a dish of noodles in black bean sauce, is dark, savoury, and a comforting bowl that doesn't rely on novelty to impress. I find myself particularly drawn to the chicken japchae, a stir-fried glass noodle dish made with sweet potato starch noodles that are gluten-free. Often served during celebrations in Korean homes, it has a delicate balance of savoury and slightly sweet flavours, with tender chicken and crisp vegetables woven through. One of the popular dishes in the menu is the ramyeon, that comes in steaming bowls with a soft-boiled egg and vegetables. Nuinui has made adjustments to make the cuisine accessible without compromising its core. 'While we stay true to traditional Korean recipes,' Gigi explains, 'we've made a few adaptations to suit local preferences. For example, we've created a vegetarian version of kimchi and modified some of our sauce bases to be vegetarian; whereas in Korea, they would typically include non-vegetarian ingredients.' That sense of accommodation is visible in the dining experience as well. Many guests, the sisters say, are curious not only about the food but also about how to eat it. 'We make it a point to explain the dishes and their flavours. Many diners are eager to learn how to use chopsticks. Some even ask us how they can make these dishes at home.' In response to this curiosity, the sisters are planning to conduct cooking workshops soon. 'We'll start with basics like kimchi and gimbap. We want people to experience not just the taste, but also the process behind the cuisine,' says Gigi. Much of the authenticity is maintained by importing essentials such as gochujang, japchae noodles, black bean paste and sesame oil from Korea. For spice blends, they have experimented with Indian chillies to come as close as possible to the traditional flavour notes. Abby, who leads the kitchen, is responsible for crafting the core elements such as sauces, fermented pastes and kimchi. She also trains the kitchen staff, while Gigi handles the front end, explains the menu to guests and oversees day-to-day operations. The restaurant uses distinctive green tableware, retro-style plates, bowls and cups that evoke the charm of classic diners found throughout South Korea. Looking ahead, the sisters are preparing to scale thoughtfully. 'We're planning to open a few more outlets across Andhra,' says Gigi. 'We're also working on introducing special lunch offerings that reflect the traditional Korean meal format.' (Open for dinner. Meal for two ₹1,000).
