If your social calendar has been looking suspiciously calm, Delhi’s dining scene is here to fix that. From Mumbai’s cult cocktail crew flying in for a guest shift to spring menus, Ramadan feasts and surprise
dance-floor dinners, this week is basically one long edible festival. Consider this your cheat sheet to what’s sizzling, shaking and serving right now.
When Mumbai’s Late Checkout Checks Into Gurgaon
For two nights only, Mumbai’s cocktail royalty is packing its shakers and swagger and landing at Bar Musui at Grand Hyatt Gurgaon, and yes, you absolutely want a reservation.
Late Checkout has built a reputation for cocktails that feel like plot twists in a glass. Think fat-washing, milk clarification and sous vide infusions — not for show, but for serious flavour drama. For this limited takeover, expect signature pours like Missing Trust Fund and Main Character Energy, which sound like personality traits but taste like liquid storytelling.
Bar Musui’s colonial elegance makes the perfect stage: plush, intimate, and just theatrical enough to let Late Checkout’s experimental energy shine. Time will easily dissolve here.
Location: Bar Musui, Grand Hyatt Gurgaon, Sector 58, Golf Course Extension Road, Gurugram
Dates: 27–28 February 2026
Time: 7 PM onwards
Slow Spring Dining At Anvaya
If Delhi had a reset button, it would look like Anvaya Delhi. Tucked inside a design-led boutique retreat in Chhattarpur, the Glass Pavilion here feels like dining inside a calm exhale. Sunlight filters through sculptural architecture, gardens soften the edges of the city, and Chef Maxime Montay’s spring menu just brings it all together.
Think roasted garlic, pumpkin and leek velouté, a beetroot and brûléed chèvre, cappelletti with roasted burrata sauce and almond-vanilla petit gâteau. It all tastes better than it spells, trust us. The entire experience is built around slowness, a rare luxury in Delhi.
Jashn-e-Iftaar At Majlis
Ramadan evenings deserve ceremony, and Majlis understands the assignment completely. Their Jashn-e-Iftaar spread begins with the essentials (dates, sharbat and traditional starters) before easing into comfort classics that feel both celebratory and grounding. There’s slow-cooked haleem, fragrant biryanis, crisp pakoda tokri and deeply satisfying Moradabadi dal.
What makes Majlis better is that it works equally well for family gatherings, group dinners or reflective meals after a long day of fasting.
Novy After Dark
Just when you think you’re having a normal dinner at NOVY… the room flips. Novy After Dark begins simply enough, with food, drinks, conversation, ambience. Then suddenly, lights dip, music surges and the entire space transforms into a spontaneous collective celebration. Scarves appear, shots arrive, strangers become co-conspirators, and for a few electric minutes, dinner becomes theatre.
It’s performance art, social experiment and party you didn’t plan but fully enjoyed. Delhi loves drama. This is edible drama.
Women Take Over The Bar At Kamei
One night, one bar, and an all-women guest shift that’s equal parts craft and cultural moment.
On 27th February, Kamei will host an evening where globally celebrated bartender Kaitlin Stewart and Mumbai’s Amisha Sawant step behind the counter, blending technical brilliance with advocacy through The Ada Coleman Project.
This isn’t a novelty takeover. It’s precision, storytelling and serious cocktail craftsmanship, with conversations about equity and mentorship flowing as smoothly as the drinks.
Expect thoughtful pours, confident flavours and a room that feels both celebratory and purposeful. The bar becomes more than a place to drink; it becomes a space to witness change in motion.
