Anand says that every course is designed to accommodate each meat and vegan preferences, and the menu will likely be regularly up to date, introducing premium meats akin to veal, mussels, and oysters to boost the Italian brunch expertise.
“There is currently no slotted seating system, though one may be introduced in the future. Walk-ins are welcome,and guests must specify their veg or non-veg preference when booking. They will also need to select their choices for the second, third, and fourth courses in advance, with dishes served sequentially, course by course, directly from the kitchen to the table.,” he says.
