In a city that pulses with energy, colour, and cosmopolitan flair, CHICA has firmly established itself as one of Delhi’s most vibrant lifestyle hotspots, it takes things a step further with the launch of a new curated menu — an inspired celebration of global flavors, handcrafted cocktails, and immersive ambiance that moves effortlessly from sunshine to starlight.
Set against the vibrant backdrop of New Delhi’s ever-evolving culinary and nightlife scene, CHICA offers something rare: a space where the lines between laid-back luxury and lively indulgence blur. Whether you’re nestled in one of its lush outdoor cabanas surrounded by tropical greenery or soaking in the buzzing energy of the bar as the city comes alive at night, CHICA offers a vibe that’s always just right.
A Menu That Travels the World, One Bite (and Sip) at a Time
The newly launched menu at CHICA by Chef Divyansh Arora is a vibrant journey through globally inspired flavours — playful yet refined, indulgent yet balanced. Each dish is crafted to elevate everyday dining into a celebration worth remembering.
The Spinach and Feta Strudel brings together earthy arugula, fresh fig, and creamy feta, finished with a balsamic glaze and charred scallion-garlic aioli — a dish that’s as elegant as it is satisfying. Crispy Shrimp Pops, paired with wakame seaweed, pickled daikon, olive tapenade, and mango relish, offer a burst of flavour and crunch in every bite.
For those craving comfort with a twist, the Cottage Cheese Gnocchi in Pepper Saffron Sauce is a standout, served with crispy leeks and a cherry tomato ragù that adds warmth and depth. And when it comes to dessert, Mango Pavlova steals the spotlight with its airy meringue, vibrant mango relish, passion fruit gel, coconut mousse, and vanilla mascarpone — a tropical, textural finish to any meal.
Each plate at CHICA is made to delight — whether you’re lingering over a long lunch, catching up over sundowners, or dancing into the night under the stars.
Cocktails That Stir the Soul
Paired with this is a stunning Mixologist Special Menu created by cocktail artist Gunjan Pal, whose drinks feel more like poetic vignettes than simple pours. Sip The Last Peach of Summer, a smoky Darjeeling-inspired dream; wander through Botanic Rhapsody, where green tea meets garden citrus; or linger over Salt & Smoke, an enigmatic mix of sea air and orange blossom. Other standouts include Sweet Sting, a spirited blend of rhubarb and florals with a springlike finish, and the Madrid Martini, dry and herbaceous with the elegance of the Iberian coast. Each cocktail is crafted to complement the food, yet stand alone as experiences in their own right.
Dinesh Arora, Founder and driving force behind CHICA’s bold vision, shares: “This menu is about more than food — it’s about experience. We’ve always envisioned CHICA as a place that evolves with your day, whether you’re coming in for a relaxed afternoon under the greens or stepping into the heartbeat of Delhi’s nightlife. This new menu captures that duality — elevated yet effortless, vibrant yet welcoming.”
Pooja Arora, Co-founder and the soul behind CHICA’s warm and inclusive atmosphere, adds: “What makes CHICA special is how it brings people together. It’s a space where every detail — from the food and drinks to the music and mood — is designed to make you feel welcome, connected, and inspired. CHICA isn’t just a place you visit; it’s a vibe you carry with you.”
With its lush outdoor seating, globally influenced interiors, and an always-evolving sense of style, CHICA is more than just a restaurant — it’s a destination. And with this new menu, it’s setting the tone for what modern dining in Delhi is all about.
