ITC Hotels has always been at the forefront of presenting well-researched cuisine concepts through its signature brand portfolio and culinary showcases. 'Culinary Stories’ is aimed at bringing the finest cuisine

experiences to India. The concept is aligned with ITC Hotels’ ethos of presenting the culture and ethos of a destination through a culinary interpretation - "Good Food" is a universal language, articulated by chefs

who showcase their creations in unique ways. Despite coming from diverse geographical regions and cuisine formats, what unites all chefs around the world is their passion for gastronomy and usage of seasonal & local produce. Focus on the harmony between taste and visual details elevated to perfectly balanced sensory dining experiences underscores 'Culinary Stories' at ITC Hotels.

After hosting a series of collaborative dinners with Chef Andoni Luis Aduriz of the 2 Michelin star awarded Mugaritz restaurants from Basque Country in Spain and Chef Gaggan Anand of the 2 Michelin starred restaurant Gaggan which is ranked 4th on The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list, ITC Hotels has partnered with Chef Prateek Sadhu.

In the year 2016, Prateek has been awarded the most innovative chef of the year by the Western Culinary Association of India. He has had stints at several of the world’s finest kitchens including Alinea, The French Laundry, Bourbon Steak, Le Bernadin, and Noma. His food philosophy places local ingredients at the fore, sourcing within the region and foraging for Lost Ingredients.
