Nonna's, renowned for its culinary innovation, is proud to bring India's first Neapolitan Sourdough Pizzeria to Fergusson College Road in Pune. With two successful locations in Mumbai's Andheri West and Lower Parel, Nonna's now expands to enchant Pune with its authentic Italian flavors.
As you step into Nonna's, you're transported to an inviting Italian Trattoria. This 92-seater restaurant exudes warmth, making it the perfect place to savor genuine Italian cuisine. With an open kitchen design, you get a front-row seat to the art of pizza-making, adding a dash of excitement to your dining experience.
Founded by Ayush Jatia, Nonna's is a culinary journey to Naples, Italy. Their sourdough starter has a rich history dating back to the 18th century, nurtured and celebrated by generations of the Galliano family of Naples.
What sets Nonna's pizza apart is the method. Unlike dough that uses commercially produced yeast for a quick rise, Nonna's dough is naturally fermented for 48 hours using their heirloom "mother dough." It's then baked in a 400°C oven for precisely 90 seconds, locking in natural aroma and moisture, resulting in a light and easily digestible crust.
Nonna's menu is a delight for your taste buds, featuring star dishes like Pizza No. 2, Pizza No.3, and Pizza No. 6, which are crowd favorites. They offer a range of options, from hand-stretched Neapolitan pizzas to fried nibbles, salads, oven-baked starters, and mouthwatering desserts, including their famous Tiramisu.
The beverage selection is equally impressive, featuring wines, Aperol, Campari, and beer thoughtfully curated to complement your meal. What's exceptional about Nonna's is their commitment to accommodating diverse dietary preferences, including offerings for Jains and Vegans. You can also personalize your pizzas to your liking.
At Nonna's, authenticity extends to their ingredients, which are a blend of imported and local items, creating a symphony of flavors that transport you to Italy with every bite.
Ayush Jatia, the founder, says, "Nonna's has embarked on a mission to bring Pune the ultimate pizza experience, boasting our signature sourdough pizzas with a legacy of a 500-year-old recipe. We believe in crafting exceptional dining experiences, and our passion for perfection shines through our artisanal creations. With a blend of traditional techniques and innovative flavors, we are sure that Pune will love Nonna's as much as it's been adored in Mumbai."
Come to Nonna's to experience pizza in its true, traditional form, and embark on a journey of authentic Italian cuisine.

The month-long beverage showcase reflects Sheraton Grand Bangalore’s focus on offering diverse and engaging culinary and nightlife experiences tailored to different guest preferences and occasions.

TOQUO has launched a new immersive dining concept titled ‘Around Asia in 10 Cocktails’ along with The Omakase Food Journey, bringing a multi-course cocktail and food pairing experience to the city’s evolving dining scene.
Curated by Chef Sachin Lepcha and mixologist Thejas Ganiga, the experience is designed as an omakase-style journey that travels across Asia through cocktails, flavours, and curated food pairings inspired by different cities.
The concept aims to recreate the cultural and culinary identity of Asian destinations in a structured, story-driven format where each course represents a different city, blending food, drink, and storytelling into one continuous experience.
The journey begins in Tokyo with Neon Sakura, a delicate cocktail made with vodka, sake, yuzu, white peach, and cherry blossom mist, paired with tuna crispy rice. It sets a light and refined tone for the experience.
From there, Bangkok introduces a bolder profile with Golden Tuk Tuk, a tamarind tequila-based cocktail infused with Thai basil, chilli honey, and lemongrass foam, paired with basil chicken bites that balance spice and sweetness.
Seoul follows with Black Velvet Seoul, a smoky gin cocktail featuring black garlic pickle, sesame, rice wine, and charcoal salt, served alongside a smoky lamb skewer designed to echo its deep umami character.
The experience continues through cities like Shanghai, Hong Kong, Kyoto, Mumbai, Macau, Singapore, and Bali, with each stop offering a distinct flavour profile inspired by regional ingredients, drinking styles, and culinary traditions. The journey features a wide range of techniques and ingredients, from coconut fat-washed tequila and kokum-forward coastal cocktails to matcha whisky blends and dessert-style nightcaps.
Alongside the cocktail programme, the Omakase food menu includes Asian-inspired small plates such as Chicken Gyoza, Katsu Chicken Open Baos, Prawn Tempura, Sichuan Chicken, Thai curries, Mushroom Baos, Yasai Tempura, sushi courses, wok-tossed dishes, and dessert finishes, each designed to complement the progression of cocktails.
According to the team, each pairing is crafted not just around flavour, but also mood and storytelling, allowing guests to experience Asia through a layered and evolving journey across every course.
Speaking about the concept, TOQUO Founder and CEO Yash Dubey said the idea is to introduce immersive dining formats that reflect the growing curiosity and openness of Nagpur’s dining audience towards global culinary experiences.
Since opening in 2024, TOQUO has positioned itself as a modern Asian restaurant-bar focusing on chef-driven cuisine and craft cocktails inspired by Asian flavours and contemporary techniques.
The experience will be available from 1 June 2026 at TOQUO, Nagpur.
QLA, the contemporary dining destination set against the backdrop of Qutub Minar, has introduced its Summer Menu 2026, crafted under the direction of Chef Dipender Tiwari.
The new seasonal menu is built around a produce-led approach, focusing on fresh summer ingredients, layered techniques, and global influences. Drawing inspiration from Japanese, Mediterranean, Korean, and Latin American cuisines, the menu balances smoke, acidity, fermentation, and natural sweetness.
Seasonal fruits and vegetables such as Alphonso mangoes, peaches, lychee, melon, pineapple, celeriac, and summer chillies feature prominently across dishes in different textures and forms.
The small plates open the experience with bold contrasts. Dishes like Himachi + Pineapple Crudo combine citrus-forward pineapple elements with smoky chipotle notes, while the Gochujang Aubergine Steak brings together heat, depth, and creamy textures through goat’s curd and mojo rojo.
From the robata grill, Lamb Loin with burnt labneh and cumin jus reflects the kitchen’s focus on high-heat cooking techniques, while Charcoal Lobster with cashew curry sauce and Thai crepes delivers a richer, layered flavour profile.
Preservation methods such as fermentation, curing, and pickling are used to add depth rather than intensity, allowing flavours to develop gradually. Steam cooking is also used across several preparations to retain freshness during the summer season.
Desserts stay aligned with the seasonal theme, with options like Passion Fruit + Coconut Tres Leches, Alphonso + Basil with mango and mascarpone, and Earl Grey Tart with lemon curd and meringue, each balancing lightness and acidity.
Speaking about the menu, Chef Dipender Tiwari shared that the focus was to let seasonal produce guide the direction of the dishes, with an emphasis on clean yet layered flavours shaped by summer ingredients and controlled use of smoke and heat.
Alongside the dining experience, the restaurant will also host weekend live performances from Friday to Sunday, as well as its Sunday Summer Brunch on Table experience.
With this launch, QLA continues to strengthen its position as one of Delhi’s leading contemporary dining destinations, offering a seasonal menu that blends technique, produce, and global inspiration.
