About The House of Medici, The Westin Pune Koregaon Park, Pune
The trend of choosing imposing names to match the grandeur of the restaurant’s décor does not seem to be fading. ‘The House of Medici’ is an example of that. This swanky hotel lounge may be named after the influential Italian family dynasty of 15th century, but it is located in amchi Mumbai, not the beautiful city of Florence. Keeping the illustrious namesake aside, The House of Medici has quickly become a trendy, coveted nightspot throughout Mumbai and that is a huge point in it’s favor. The stunning, glamourous backdrop offered by the lounge attracts many A-listers constantly. The party goes on way past midnight here, so no need to rush off at 11. The House of Medici borrows the backdrop from it’s location at The Westin, Mundhwa Annexe, Mundhwa.
While it may not be an affordable place to party, The House of Medici turns the price tag in it’s favor by coming up with an amazing set of menus. Their booze selection is chosen from all over the globe, offering you plenty of fancy malts, wines and spirits to pick from. To munch, select happily from the bar’s Asian and Continental menu. Go for one of their Italian named house cocktails to pair the grub. ‘Medici Vass’ or ‘Balthus Dream’ has our vote. Food menu is selective. What they lack in variety, they more than make up for it in flavor. For immediate hunger pangs go for nibbles like, Medici spiced fries, fiery hot wings, Sichuan potatoes, peppy prawns and tempura fried tilapia. Settle for a burger or a pizza for a fuller meal.
Take advantage of the lounge’s thriving dance floor when the DJ plays his groovy tunes. The live music adds to the atmosphere. The House of Medici is an ideal place to sample the fancy nightlife of Mumbai city. As if to justify the grand name, The House of Medici leaves no stone unturned to dazzle you.
