CYK Hospitalities, the premier F&B consultancy in India, announces the launch of Via Bianca, a niche, regional Italian restaurant situated in the iconic N Block Market, GK I, New Delhi. With this endeavor, CYK continues to raise the bar for exquisitely crafted F&B concepts focused on a blend of authenticity, operational finesse and visionary collaborations.
Via Bianca is the dream project of Chef Kamalika Anand, an alumna of Le Cordon Bleu, London, and ALMA, Italy. After years of international experience in Michelin-starred kitchens and European culinary landscapes, Kamalika wished to create a place that would truly represent Italy’s regional cuisine and culinary culture. Via Bianca is rooted in tradition, simply presented, and served with soul. The ambiance of the restaurant is understated elegance, presenting an ambience that emulates the rustic charm of Italian homes with sleek modernity—open kitchen, pasta shaping station and wood-fired oven are some of its highlights.
The menu ventures into the realm of delicacies consisting of Strata Bianca di Zucchini, Spaghetti all’ Assassina and Tigelle ‘Nduja, among others, bringing forth an array of ingredients and techniques that honour Italy’s myriad regions. The idea goes from striving to appeal to the varied tastes of the seasoned diner and the curious one for whom the Italian food serenade should be kept a bit warmer and more familiar.
Chef Kamalika Anand shares the sentiment: “Via Bianca has lived in my head and heart for a long time. It’s more than a restaurant—it’s a tribute to the Italy I studied, lived, and loved. CYK hospitalities didn’t just consult; they helped me channel a dream into something real. Every inch of Via Bianca carries a piece of my journey and hard work, backed by their strategic brilliance.”
CYK Hospitality worked alongside the brand team to ensure the narrative was passed on to an ergonomic operational structure. Whether it was designing a back kitchen workflow or maturing the guest journey, on every touchpoint was supposed to exist the spirit of Via Bianca.
Pulkit Arora, Director, CYK Hospitalities, stated, “Via Bianca is a reflection of meaningful collaboration. We saw Kamalika’s passion and aligned it with a solid framework, from planning to execution. This project shows how soulful cuisine can meet market-smart strategy without compromise.”
