The concept brings together flavours from India’s diverse coastal regions, creating a refined yet authentic dining narrative.
A balanced blend of nostalgia and innovation
Shiv Bose, General Manager, said the relaunch gives Glass Kitchen & Bar a clear culinary identity aligned with evolving guest preferences.
Signature highlights include Tender Coconut Payasam Ice Cream, the thoughtfully curated ‘Amma’s Corner’, and Glass Special Starter Platters designed for shared dining. The menu, spearheaded by Chef Tirupathi and Chef Ajit, showcases regional favourites such as Lobster Mappas, Meen Pollichathu, Kuttu Paratha and Gongura Mamsam.
Executive Chef Ajit Tiwari noted that the aim was to craft a layered and immersive experience rooted in coastal traditions while maintaining contemporary finesse.
