In 2024, to herald in the festive season, The Claridges New Delhi invites its beloved guests to visit the Hotel and experience The World, through a culinary initiative aptly named ,” Around the World, in Eighty Plates.” on the 16th November 2024, this is a culinary celebration that will offer an immersive gastronomic journey through diverse countries.

In 1872, Jules Verne wrote one of his most acclaimed novels titled ‘Around the World in Eighty Days’. The story was about a wealthy Englishmen who embarked upon an adventure of a lifetime wherein he and his companion circumvented the world and saw it, in eighty odd days. The book takes you on a journey into different parts of the world such as the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Japan, India, France, Singapore and Hong Kong.
Ankur Gulati, Executive Chef, The Claridges New Delhi said- “At The Claridges New Delhi, we believe that food is a gateway to explore the world’s rich tapestry of cultures and traditions. ‘Around the World in Eighty Plates’ is not just a culinary journey; it’s an invitation to our guests to indulge in the authentic flavours and stories that each dish represents.

Around the World in Eighty Plates aims at capturing the essence of each nation’s culinary tradition, whilst highlighting Gourmet Planet & The Claridges New Delhi’s partnership in curating excellent fine dining experiences.
