Le Cirque
New Delhi, India
Sister restaurant to the New York legend, Le Cirque is set high up on the 10th floor of the luxurious Leela hotel and serves its famous French and Italian fare. There's a choice between dining à la carte or enjoying the chef's signature 10 course tasting menu with plates including ravioli stuffed with Barolo-braised duck leg served with pumpkin velouté, rosemary-infused morel mushrooms, leek 'spaghetti' and parsley foam, or scallop and rock lobster risotto in lobster bisque with crispy Sicilian caper flowers and basil cress. Don't skip the classic Le Cirque crème brûlée to finish. The wine list is also well worth exploring with top sommelier Gauarv Dixit on-hand to offer pairing advice. As for the restaurant interior, it has an old school gentlemen's club vibe with polished wood panelling, plush upholstered armchairs and a spectacular candlelit terrace overlooking the twinkling lights of the city.
