Prithvi announces plans to open new Cotswold site
Owner Jay Rahman, is looking to expand its offering further afield and is on the lookout for any viable locations, including spaces within existing hospitality properties that would be keen to collaborate with the brand
Fine-dining Indian-inspired restaurant Prithvi in the heart of Cheltenham has confirmed plans to open doors in a new Cotswold destination elevating its growing profile to the wider region.
Prithvi is currently on the lookout for a new Cotswold-based premise to share its gastronomic experiences, which have seen its menus featured in the Michelin guide.
Since opening in February 2012, Prithvi, renowned for its contemporary Indian cuisine and high levels of service, has been a popular venue for those seeking a “modern gourmet experience” in Gloucestershire – fronted by two Michelin star trained head chef Thomas Law, who has worked in New York, Australia and the UK.
Now its owner, Jay Rahman, is looking to expand its offering further afield and is on the lookout for any viable locations, including spaces within existing hospitality properties that would be keen to collaborate with the brand.
Rahman said: “We’re really excited to start exploring locations for a second Prithvi somewhere in the Cotswolds, so if there are any suitable businesses in the area that would be keen to talk to us about a potential collaboration, I would love to engage with them. Of course, I’m very open to hearing from other businesses as far afield as London that we could potentially partner with, too.”
Renowned for its confluence of Asian and European dishes, Prithvi’s name itself translates to ‘mother earth’ from the Indo-European language of Sanskrit – emphasising the restaurant’s roots in Indian heritage.
Under head chef Law, the kitchen team only uses high quality British ingredients in all its dishes, where guests can enjoy a la carte, five-course and seven-course tasting menus.
The restaurant also has its own sommelier, who is on hand to help guide guests through their culinary journey by pairing the perfect wine with each dish.
Rahman added: “We’re proud of the success Prithvi has had to this point and are now in a position to extend that further with a new establishment. We love creating spaces that allow our guests to share their most cherished moments, whether celebrating love, friendship, or success, and a second location will enable us to double that!”
