IT @ THE GRAND, VASANT KUNJ


As the doors of this Italian Adventure open, one is overwhelmed with the majestic feel of Renaissance Italy and exotic fragrance of the food. This signature restaurant at The Grand in Vasant Kunj consists a rich bar (as in the wine is excellent!) and of course the dining space, all designed contemporarily with a special touch of tradition to complete the beautiful elements ….  Truly impeccable ambience! 

In order to deliver the quality that he is so particular about, Chef Rawat personally ensures that he buys only the best and the freshest ingredients. I could see that the bruschetta and desserts are made in-house under his steely supervision. Out here don’t expect your food to fly out to your table. 

Each dish is prepared from scratch only after you place your order. With certain recipes tracing back from Renaissance Italy, the cuisine here finds its roots in tradition.  I would highly recommend the home-made ravioli stuffed with goat cheese and tomato. Must try Signature dishes include ‘ Sea food and baby tomato broth’, ‘Grilled lamb chop with rosemary, fusion vegetables, served with basil and garlic mashed potato’, ‘Beetroot crust pizza topped with spinach, asparagus and shallot, mushroom’,  ‘Grilled mushroom with garlic’ on the side. Save a little room for the heavenly ‘Chef’s special rich whipped egg Marsala, the traditional Zabaglione way’ to end on a sweet note. Buon Appetito!
