Lodha curated an exclusive evening shaped by craft, culture and conversation at its newest architectural landmark - One Lodha Place. In a private dining room above the city, a close circle of discerning families gathered for a magical culinary experience.
At the centre of the evening was Alessandro Negrini, Michelin-starred chef of Milan’s storied Il Luogo di Aimo e Nadia. Carrying forward a six-decade culinary legacy, Negrini represents a modern interpretation of Italian cuisine. His work honours regional tradition, expressed through a lens of soulful simplicity. He designed a bespoke five-course dinner for the evening. Each course traced a distinct Italian region, reimagined through Negrini’s contemporary lens.

As dinner concluded, guests were guided into a secret dessert room. In a softly lit setting, dessert trolleys emerged one by one, each presenting a different selection from Negrini’s repertoire. The moment combined refinement with a sense of whimsy, reflecting the warmth and joy that underpin his culinary philosophy. Adding to the atmosphere, an international illusionist subtly moved through the room, introducing moments of surprise without disrupting the evening’s flow.

Among those present were the Consul General of Italy, Walter Ferrara and Mrs Olga Ferrara. Their presence reinforced the spirit of cultural exchange that defined the night.
The evening reflected Lodha’s belief that living extends beyond the walls of a home. By bringing together families who will soon inhabit its most iconic developments, the dinner offered a glimpse into a life with Lodha, shaped by thoughtful experiences and meaningful connection.
