"We're looking to promote ourselves as a fine dining and upmarket restaurant, which is not exorbitantly priced. Luxury and exclusivity is going to be a key to the service offering at 56," says Vineet Taing, Vice President - Hospitality, Vatika Group.

This is the reason I have come up with an innovative menu that brings with it the taste of original home cooked Italian food," says Chef Mario Paolillo.

The main attractions at the restaurant for the guests will be the `Show Kitchen' where everything is cooked in full view of the customers and `Stone hut oven,' which is a new technology to make pizzas and pastas.
The interiors at the restaurant have been designed by Delhi based interior design firm - Innovations, and the space has been given a Mediterranean feel with a judicious use of space and a high ceiling structure playing an important part. The total built up area of the restaurant is 5000 sq ft and it seats 78 covers.

When five star hotels and restaurants are too expensive for their pockets, the food courts are the best option left for them. It is a heaven of gourmet for the food lovers where they can chat with friends while enjoying delicious food of their own choice, as variety of food dominate food courts. The rates are also not exorbitant and above all the lively environment makes them feel at home.

This makes the place most happening one. People doing shopping at malls prefer to go to food courts. I think the food courts are the best option available to all budget people and their families. The government should join hands with private entrepreneurs and come forward to open more food joints, as this would attract domestic tourists.
