Ensconced in a regal atrium amidst spectacular chandeliers, Madras Pavilion falls right in with the grand ITC design scheme; however in the light of nine other dining options at this massive hotel, some of which are trendsetting pioneers, it does not try hard enough to prevent being overshadowed. At some moment during a chaotic buffet meal, as you sidestep patrons and try to flag bearers amidst the din for an odd dish that is nearly forgotten, the grandeur around Madras Pavilion can seem exasperatingly transient.
