COSMO, nestled within the Hyatt Centric Hebbal Bengaluru, an idea that brings across a dining experience in perfect harmony with global flavours and local charm—truly a unique destination within this vibrant city’s culinary scene. The eclectic menu celebrates Indian, Asian, and European cuisines in equal measure, promising a gastronomic journey that will set both palate and senses a-tingling at COSMO.   From the very start, a great atmosphere greets visitors upon entering COSMO to set the scene for what’s in store. In terms of decoration, it is modern yet comfortable, with warm lights, stylish seating, and a poolside view adding a twist of serenity to the dining experience. There is a feeling of sophistication, yet it is informal in its own way, making it excellent for any dinner or even just a night out with friends. The evening was started off with a view of their very innovative spread—the thoughtfully crafted selection features a diverse array of dishes that would suit many tastes. Whether you are in the mood for something familiar or adventurous, COSMO will have something to your taste. Of particular note is the veg-forward approach, bringing across fresh seasonal produce in a manner even devout meat lovers would appreciate.   Among the number of dishes featured that evening was a signature dish by the chef, an Indian-inspired Broccoli, Chilgoza ke Kabab, prepared exquisitely with subtle heat from the Indian spices mingling harmoniously with delicate flavours of traditional cuisine. This dish summed up the COSMO philosophy for food: fresh ingredients and bold flavours, a commitment to excellence. Certainly, “From the streets of Italy – Buckwheat Ravioli Lipari” did not disappoint. We indulged in Ravioli perfection with a creamy texture. The balance of flavour was faultless, where richness from parmesan cheese, butternut squash and roasted pumpkin seeds, was offset by freshness. It was food for attention, where every single bite bespoke skill, imagination, and skills from master kitchen hands of Executive Chef Chandra Prakash Sharma and Co. One can easily draw on the influence of Chef Sharma from the menu. With nearly two decades of experience in cooking, he conjures a culinary voyage that is at once varied yet cohesive. His background—the lineation from some of the prestigious Hyatt properties in Goa, Dubai, and Hyderabad—imparts COSMO with a global perspective, while his dedication to using only the finest products available ensures every dish turns into an ode of flavour.   Another strong point of COSMO is their service. The staff is solicitous but not intrusive, very conversant with the menu, and genuinely into offering up an exceptionally fine dining experience. There’s a beverage selection to match, featuring everything from fine wines to creative cocktails. The evening was rounded off with a platter of dessert—a visually stunning, hazelnut milk chocolate cremoux, white chocolate brownie, cherry clofothi, black forest cake, pineapple and chocolate pastry, berry tart, and offering a healthy option of sugar free fruit custard that was as delicious as it looked, providing the perfect sweet closure to such an extraordinary meal. There were also Indian dessert options – gulab jamun and rasgulla. This allowed the lasting impression of COSMO’s commitment to culinary delight excellence.    In a city that reinvents itself every moment, the dining experience offered by COSMO at Hyatt Centric Hebbal Bengaluru will stand out for being at once modern and classic. Be it the local who wants a new favourite spot or the traveller who wants to indulge in the best of Bengaluru’s culinary destiny, COSMO is the place. COSMO is not just a restaurant; it’s a culinary journey that celebrates the finest global cuisine with a distinctively local touch. Be it the ambiance, the service, or the food, everything comes together to give you an experience that you will never forget and leaves you wanting more.   Disclaimer: This article is a personal dining experience done by Ms. Samanvitha Rao
