Sanjay Dutt has introduced Alta Stella, a new rooftop restro-bar in Andheri West that brings a fresh perspective to Mumbai’s nightlife scene. Located 30 floors above the city, the space offers a setting where the pace slows down, allowing guests to ease into the evening rather than rush through it.
Meaning “closest to the star,” Alta Stella is built around an idea that goes beyond just being a rooftop destination. The experience here changes with time. Afternoons are calm and relaxed, perfect for long conversations, while evenings gradually build in energy with warmer lighting and music that evolves naturally with the mood.
Spread across 12,000 sq. ft. and designed to host up to 250 guests, the space balances openness with a sense of comfort. The design features layered textures, sculpted lighting, and subtle celestial elements that tie the theme together. One of its most striking features is the mirrored rooftop, which reflects the night sky and creates a unique visual effect where the stars seem to surround you.
Sharing his thoughts, Sanjay Dutt said, "Being a celebrity comes with a lot of noise and chaos around you, so I've learned to appreciate spaces that feel calm and real. Alta Stella has that feeling. You're up close to the sky, you see the stars above, and somehow everything slows down - aur phir bas dil karta hai thoda aur ruk jaayein. There's a quiet strength here, and that's what makes the place special for me."
The concept is led by founder Abhimanyu Jakhar, who envisioned the space as more than just a nightlife spot. "Alta Stella was born from a very personal belief that when you place yourself under the stars, you naturally begin to look inward. The idea of being 'closest to the star' isn't about height or grandeur for us; it's about creating a space where people feel aligned with themselves. We wanted to design an experience guided by the universe, through constellations, light, and atmosphere, where the sky becomes part of the journey. The space is meant to move with you, slowly and intuitively, allowing moments of reflection before the energy builds. Every night feels different, because every mood and every person brings something new. Alta Stella isn't about spectacle; it's about presence, and the quiet connection you feel when you look up and feel exactly where you're meant to be."
In the kitchen, Chef Manoranjan presents a menu that blends global influences with Indian flavours. The dishes are familiar yet creatively reworked, offering a balance between comfort and newness. Highlights include Beetroot & Whipped Feta Croquettes, Tangra Chicken Pops, and Podi Butter Prawns, along with options like Chicken Thecha Kulcha and Chicken Parmesan Milanese. Desserts such as the Chenna Pod Cheesecake round off the experience with a unique twist.
Behind the bar, Mixologist Sidharth has curated a cocktail menu inspired by zodiac signs and celestial themes. Each drink is crafted to reflect a mood or personality, with options like Enki (Aquarius), Jasper (Aries), Chimera (Leo), Themis (Libra), and Ebisu (Pisces), making the bar experience both personal and expressive.
Blending thoughtful design, curated food and drinks, and a setting that evolves through the evening, Alta Stella positions itself as a distinctive addition to Mumbai’s hospitality landscape. It’s a space that encourages guests to slow down, connect, and enjoy moments that unfold naturally.
Alta Stella is located at 30th Floor, Parinee I, Shah Industrial Estate, Veera Desai Area, Andheri West, Mumbai 400053, and is open from 6:00 PM to 1:00 AM.

Sheraton Grand Palace Indore has introduced a new immersive dining concept titled “Sarafa se Chappan,” designed to celebrate the vibrant street food culture of Indore through a curated culinary journey.
The experience brings together the iconic flavours of Sarafa Bazaar’s lively night food scene and the diverse offerings of Chappan Dukan, two of the city’s most celebrated culinary destinations. Hosted at S Café, the initiative transforms familiar street food favourites into a refined, sit-down dining format while preserving their authenticity and regional character.
The specially curated menu features a wide range of Indori street food staples, including Potato Hot Dog, Sweet Potato Spiral, Jeeravan Spiced Corn, Indori Chatpati Bhel, and Tandoori Fruits. Complementing the food selection are locally inspired beverages such as Jamun Shots and Pineapple Crusher, designed to reflect the bold, tangy, and refreshing flavours associated with Indore’s street culture.
The concept is built around storytelling through food, where each dish represents a sensory connection to the city’s culinary heritage. By blending nostalgia with presentation-driven dining, the experience aims to recreate the energy and vibrancy of Indore’s bustling food streets within a premium hospitality setting.
According to the hotel, the initiative is designed to offer guests more than just a meal, focusing instead on immersive dining that engages taste, memory, and culture. The emphasis remains on authenticity, creativity, and regional identity, while presenting street food in a structured and elevated format.
The “Sarafa se Chappan” experience will be available every weekend from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM at Sheraton Grand Palace Indore, offering guests a curated journey through one of India’s most celebrated food cities.

A new vegetarian dining destination has arrived in Bengaluru with the launch of Continuum in JP Nagar. Designed around experiences, interaction, and evolving food stories, the restaurant brings together familiar flavours and global inspirations through a modern vegetarian approach.
Continuum celebrates vegetarian cuisine with a fresh perspective, blending comfort with creativity. Created for families as well as a younger generation increasingly embracing vegetarian lifestyles, the concept aims to offer a dining experience that feels both familiar and exciting. Every element of the space has been planned to encourage connection and create memorable moments.
At the centre of the experience is a dynamic show kitchen paired with refined tableside interactions and personalised service. Rather than being just a place to dine, Continuum focuses on making each visit immersive, social, and engaging.
A key aspect of the restaurant is its evolving menu philosophy. Instead of a fixed offering, the menu is designed to grow and change over time through three distinct layers that bring together guest participation, seasonal inspiration, and signature dishes.
One of its unique concepts is the 30-Day Guest Collab Menu, where guests contribute ideas, flavours, and inspirations that become part of limited-edition dishes. This collaborative approach gives diners a sense of involvement and ensures something new with every visit.
Alongside this is the 90-Day Seasonal Continuum, featuring dishes inspired by changing seasons, local produce availability, and principles influenced by nature and Ayurveda. With changing narratives across monsoon, winter, and summer, the menu evolves with time while staying connected to its surroundings.
At the heart of the offering sits The Continuum Core, a collection of globally and locally inspired vegetarian favourites reimagined with contemporary techniques and modern presentation, balancing comfort with innovation.
The beverage menu also introduces signature zero-proof creations including Picante Passion, Rose Paloma, and Alla Sangria. Designed to deliver the depth and character of classic cocktails without alcohol, these beverages go through infusion and resting techniques that allow flavours to develop over time. The result is a layered and immersive drinking experience with balanced notes of citrus, fruit, herbs, and spice.
Continuum is located at 788, 1st Floor, 15th Cross Road, Above Truffles, Nagarjuna Enclave, 1st Phase, JP Nagar, Bengaluru – 78 and is open from 12 Noon to 4 PM and 7 PM to 11:30 PM.
