Avartana at ITC Maurya marks its first year in Delhi, continuing its mission to redefining South Indian cuisine with skill, innovation, and balance.
To celebrate the occasion, the restaurant introduces a new Sunday Lunch—a nine-course tasting menu that showcases inventive culinary techniques, refined flavours, and a dining experience designed to surprise the palate. Served in a stylish rooftop setting overlooking the Delhi Ridge, the brunch brings together craft, creativity, and a sense of place.
What the Sunday Menu offers
The Sunday lunch at the rooftop presents a series of thoughtfully curated courses that introduce fresh ideas while honouring traditional South Indian culinary roots. The menu uses modern techniques to create dishes that are engaging and memorable.
The meal opens with the French-Pressed Tomato Rasam—a clear broth brewed for 24 hours that sets the tone for what follows. The menu then progresses to dishes like Stir-Fried Chicken, Cauliflower Crunch, and Uthukuli Chicken, each crafted with an eye for balance and innovation. The bottle gourd with delicate tempering, paired with plum chutney, further showcases Avartana’s talent for giving classic ingredients a contemporary expression.
One of the signature courses is the shrimp dumpling with fresh coriander and a hint of heat—Avartana’s contemporary homage to the Indian dumpling tradition. The meal concludes with the fennel panna cotta, infused with subtle aromatics and finished with crisp, golden angel-hair caramel—an eye-catching dessert that reflects the essence of the menu.
Complementing the food is Avishka—a curated selection of cocktails inspired by South India’s history, culture, and flavours. Each drink is infused with spices and blends traditional influences with a modern edge, completing the anniversary experience with balance and depth.
At Avartana, it’s not just about the ingredients—it’s about how they come together on the plate. Through its modern interpretation of South Indian cuisine, the restaurant continues to weave innovation and intuition into every creation, reimagining classic Southern dishes in a refined and memorable way.
The 54-seat restaurant, Avartana includes a private dining room for ten, offering guests a calm, immersive dining experience. Its design combines muted colors with rustic earthenware, steel cutlery, and modern glassware. An open kitchen gives diners a view of the careful craftsmanship that goes into every dish.
The new Sunday Lunch menu is available from 12:30 pm to 2:45 pm, priced at ₹3,750 plus taxes per person, at Avartana, located on the rooftop of ITC Maurya.
