La Piazza Invited Opening Chef, Hermann Grossbichler, to serve some of his specials to kickstart the Silver Jubilee Celebrations of the restaurant. |
When it
opened in 1994, La Piazza at Hyatt Regency Delhi was one of the first Italian
restaurants in the city. The trattoria-style restaurant became an instant hit for serving thin crust pizzas, al dente pasta and languorous Sunday brunches.
It became a popular hangout for the capital’s swish set, also making it a great
place for people spotting {and for being spotted}!
Even
after 25 years of service, much remains unchanged. While a host of Italian
chefs have come and gone, the Hyatt recently invited the opening chef of
the restaurant, Chef Hermann Grossbichler, to cook some of his specials.
While he clearly looked happy to be back at one of his most successful
openings, he shared proudly that "even the tables have not changed in all
these years". So on a special evening curated for media and food
bloggers, Chef Hermann churned out his signature dishes including raw beetroot ravioli, warm mushroom salad, cannellini bean and
chunky vegetable broth, ricotta and truffle filled tortellini, black rice risotto with seafood,
grilled seabass and basil and sundried tomato stuffed chicken breast. In case
you want to savour some of his creations Chef Hermann is in town till 19th
February 2019.

But the celebrations for this silver jubilee
have only just kicked off, the above-mentioned dishes and more will be on offer
in the coming months as well. Besides this, La Piazza has been one of the
pioneers of using farm-fresh ingredients and Italian produce. Now, the
restaurant is all set to introduce a retail section with its own exclusive range
of house wines, olive oil and cheeses made the traditional Italian way.
With many more exciting events planned in the months to follow, the grand culmination of the silver jubilee celebrations is scheduled for October. Stay tuned to know more.
