Renowned cricketer Virat Kohli, famous for his love for Delhi’s gastronomic delights, has taken another step in his culinary journey by introducing One8 Commune Gurgaon, the latest addition to his growing restaurant empire. Located at the prestigious M3M International Financial Center (IFC), this marks the seventh outpost of the One8 Commune restaurant chain in India. The establishment’s interiors, designed by the renowned Studio Renesa, immerse diners in a harmonious blend of mauve, lavender, pink, and elegant rose gold.
Virat Kohli, the driving force behind One8 Commune’s expansion, sees the restaurant as more than just a dining destination. He describes it as “not just a restaurant; it’s a spirit of togetherness. We’ve combined international cuisine with the excitement of creating memorable moments. I can’t wait for you to experience it!”
The menu at One8 Commune Gurgaon, meticulously crafted by Chef Agnibh Mudi, promises an epicurean journey filled with flavors and innovation, featuring the freshest organic produce. Kohli, in an exclusive statement, shared his enthusiasm for the venture: “We’ve put together a menu that brings together the best of international and regional cuisine, offering a diverse selection of dishes for everyone to enjoy.”
Among the culinary highlights are Virat’s personal favorites, such as Spaghetti Cherry Tomato Stew, Tomato Barley Risotto, Zucchini Croquettes, Nasi Goreng, Green Mac and Cheese, and Mushroom Galouti. The menu also boasts a dedicated section named ‘Virat’s Favourites,’ showcasing unique creations like Avocado Tartare and Pearl Barley Risotto.
While Virat Kohli is celebrated for his culinary interests, there’s one dish he can’t stand. In a candid moment shared on his official Instagram handle, the Indian cricket legend revealed, “Now being a vegetarian, I hate karela (bitter gourd).” However, he also indulges his sweet tooth with a particular fondness for the South African dessert, Malva Pudding, characterized by its caramelized exterior and spongy interior, often served with whipped cream or ice cream.
In addition to his culinary preferences, it’s reported that Virat Kohli is a green tea enthusiast, known to consume 3-4 cups daily to boost metabolism and maintain his active lifestyle. One8 Commune Gurgaon is set to offer patrons a unique and diverse culinary experience, blending international flavors with Virat Kohli’s personal touch. As a testament to the cricketer’s culinary journey, this restaurant promises to become a go-to destination for food enthusiasts seeking innovation and exceptional dining.
