Sorrento — Restaurant in New Delhi

We are currently staying in the hotel for our honeymoon. We didn’t want to venture out so we came to ‘sorrento’ as it’s one of the 4 restaurants the Shangri-La has to offer on site. It’s Valentine’s Day here today and the whole city seems to love it, the restaurant was busy as a result . It was decorated lovely for the occasion with fresh roses on the table, nice rose pleated napkins and nice music ambience (hence the atmosphere 4 star). The decoration aside, unfortunately the rest of the service was just so poor. From the minute we sat down, we were constantly having to ask the waiters to either take our order, remind them for forgotten drinks, ask for condiments such as olive oil/chilli flakes etc that were on all the other tables. There was also a noticeable difference in service we recieved as tourists and what the local people recieved. They were served their food (mains and starters) individually by the waiters onto there plates. One couple got a shared pizza and got served an individual pizza slice each before the waiter placed it between them. OUR mains came down with all our dirty plates, still left on the table, from our starters. The food was okay, very difficult to justify the price. To top it off it took 20 minutes and 4 people to eventually get the bill. When he came down we explained how poor the service was and we weren’t happy to pay the 10% service charge, which is automatically applied to every bill. Then before we left, the waiter proceeded to come down and say he forgot to charge us for a sparkling water and wanted payment! Honestly, for a 5 star hotel this was appauling. I’m honestly not one to get frustrated with these things but I would have expected more from a...

With a plethora of Sunday Brunches to choose from all over the city, this one is unapologetically Italian. With high quality imported meats and cheeses, Chef Luigi Ferraro's Italian Sunday Brunch at Sorrento, Shangri-La's Eros Hotel shoots to the top of my list.

Some salads and meats to start off with. There is a range of carpaccio that has been created. There is lamb, steak and octopus on offer. The best part of the carpaccio cut is the explosion of the flavours the meat provides asking with the dressing. We also try out some pecorino with smoked salami and an authentic aged Negroni to wash it down. There is also a Bruschetta trolley (Cicetti Section) to impress upon you the fresh flavours of Italy. Try out the classic Pomodoro with Rocket leaves and Parmesan cheese which leaves a mouthful of sweetness and salty flavours on the palate.

The mains of the Italian Sunday Brunch includes some of the best pastas, Neapolitan pizzas and grills available. We tried out the Casarecce with Pork Nduja and Egg Plant which exploded on our palate with the flavours. But a Risotto is always a true indicator of an Italian restaurant and Chef Ferraro nails the mushroom Risotto with the perfect amount of chalkiness. The medium rare tenderloin steak is done perfectly along with a side of roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes. There are lamb chops and pork chops along with a plethora of sea food available.

We end our meal with some desserts from all over Europe. The Chocolate Mille-Feuille and the Berry Cheesecake make for excellent ways to end a meal. This Sunday Brunch is available at Sorrento, Shangri-La's Eros Hotel for INR 3750++ with cocktails...
