The Leela Gandhinagar is set to reimagine its signature Sunday brunch experience with a nostalgic “Back to School Brunch” at Citrus Junction on 7th June 2026. The curated experience blends childhood-inspired comfort food with refined culinary execution and immersive storytelling.

Designed around the theme of school-day nostalgia, Citrus Junction will be transformed into a playful yet elegant setting featuring blackboard-inspired décor, lunchbox-themed table arrangements, and live musical performances. The concept aims to evoke memories of school lunches while presenting them through a luxury dining lens.

The brunch menu brings together elevated interpretations of classic comfort dishes, chef-led live stations, and desserts inspired by school-time favourites. Signature highlights include the Chocolate Blackboard Delice, styled like a classroom blackboard; the Lunchbox Tiramisu served in stainless steel tiffin boxes; and the Geometry Box Dessert Platter, inspired by traditional school stationery kits.

One of the key interactive elements of the experience is the “Pack Your Own Tiffin” station, allowing guests to curate their own gourmet lunchbox selections, blending creativity with culinary indulgence.

To enhance the family-friendly atmosphere, the hotel has also introduced dedicated engagement zones for younger guests. These include cookie decorating workshops, drawing corners, and themed craft activities. Families will also be able to capture moments at a specially designed “Class Photo Booth,” adding to the experiential nature of the brunch.

Vikas Sood, General Manager of The Leela Gandhinagar, said, “At The Leela Gandhinagar, we believe the most meaningful experiences are the ones that bring people together. With the ‘Back to School Brunch,’ we wanted to bring together comforting flavours, engaging experiences, and thoughtful details for families to enjoy together.”

Blending nostalgia with contemporary luxury hospitality, the initiative reflects The Leela’s continued focus on creating immersive dining experiences that go beyond traditional brunch formats and engage guests across generations.
