The setup for the night 

We were invited by Novotel Juhu to come witness for ourselves this transition from the old to the new, so allow us to take you through it.

The term Olio signifies ‘oil’ in Italian. Bidding adieu to the staid fine dining concept, Olio presents a refreshing gourmet experience with interactive open kitchens and wood fired ovens.

Shares Kailash Gundupalli, Executive Chef, Novotel Mumbai Juhu Beach, “As a chef, I strongly believe that restaurant menus should constantly change and evolve to keep patrons coming back for dishes that both delight and surprise them. A new introduction to the Olio menu draws inspiration from our team’s creativity, travels, ingenious ideas and innate experiences. We have selected diverse regional cooking styles from Italy with the choicest of ingredients and homemade pastas to keep up with rising trends and giving our guests the best of Italian dining.”
