Business Traveller India showcases the year's most notable openings, each offering unique experiences for the curious gourmand.
FIORI, LONAVALA
Envision a European culinary journey set amidst the tranquil landscapes of Lonavala-this is the essence of Fiori. Nestled in the picturesque hills of Lonavala, Fiori amalgamates European sophistication with Mediterranean charm. The brainchild of siblings Suraj and Sanskriti Gupta, this glasshouse restaurant embodies their shared vision-a tranquil escape where food, design, and nature converge. Fiori, aptly named after the Italian word for "flowers," is a testament to their creative synergy. With his background in economics and hospitality, Suraj infuses the space with global influences, while Sanskriti, an architecture graduate, brings the restaurant's inviting glasshouse design to life. The innovative polycarbonate sliding roofs, handcrafted wooden accents, and thoughtful ambient décor create an earthy, chic setting that resonates with Lonavala's scenic beauty.
At the heart of Fiori is a vegetarian menu curated by Head Chef Gracian de Souza, celebrating the rich culinary traditions of Europe and the Mediterranean. The restaurant's commitment to using the finest organic ingredients is evident in every dish, offering diners a multi-sensory experience that is both comforting and innovative. Signature offerings like the Bee Sting cocktail-a bold fusion of tequila and jalapeño-and the indulgent Mushroom Risotto with truffle butter highlight Fiori's dedication to flavour and finesse.
