A Tuscan courtyard in the heart of Bengaluru is divided into meticulously crafted fine-dining zones, pampering you with choices of wines, inventive cocktails and an impressive variety of European cuisine. Lupa—the new restaurant on MG Road, Bengaluru—is the brainchild of chef-restaurateur Manu Chandra and hospitality veteran Chetan Rampal.
Lupa is named after the mythological La Lupa, or the she-wolf who raised Romulus and Remus, the founders of the modern city of Rome. “The Roman goddess is a nurturing spirit, but also untameable. I think that resonated with me,” says Chandra, the Delhi lad who pursued his passion for food at the Culinary Institute of America and returned to India in 2004 to join Olive Beach in Bengaluru as its chef de cuisine.
Inspired by everything Italian—from architecture and history to food and wine—Chandra hopes to redefine the fine-dining experience in Bengaluru.
