The Leela Ambience Gurugram Launches Forest View Deck: An Elevated Sustainable Dining Experience Overlooking a 1,000-Acre Forest

Gurugram, Feb 02: The Leela Ambience Gurugram Hotel & Residences, synonymous with luxury and refinement, unveils Forest View Deck, a unique farm-to-fork dining destination rooted in sustainability and mindful indulgence. Nestled poolside with private cabana-style seating, the deck offers panoramic views of a sprawling 1,000-acre forest, providing guests a tranquil escape where they can unwind and dine amidst nature.

At the heart of Forest View Deck’s culinary philosophy is a commitment to season-led menus and responsibly sourced ingredients, drawn from the hotel’s own Leela Farm and The Green House. The 3.5-acre organic Leela Farm cultivates vegetables, fruits, and select dairy products without chemical intervention, while the hydroponic glasshouse at the deck grows nutrient-rich lettuces, tomatoes, and aromatic herbs using eco-friendly, soil-free methods. Together, these initiatives ensure fresh, high-quality ingredients while minimizing environmental impact.

Abhishek Gupta, Executive Chef at The Leela Ambience Gurugram, shares:

“At Forest View Deck, our cuisine begins with the season and ends with responsibility. From root to fruit, we celebrate Indian produce through sustainable, zero-waste gastronomy. Everything grown in our farm and glasshouse shapes a menu that honours nature, supports farmers, and shows that flavour and care must always go hand in hand.”

The dining experience emphasizes connection to nature and ingredients, with a menu that evolves across the four seasons to highlight produce at its peak. Complementing the food is a beverage selection that mirrors the same focus on freshness, balance, and seasonality.

Designed as an open-air retreat, Forest View Deck blends comfort with the surrounding landscape, offering a space for guests to slow down, savour thoughtfully prepared food, and enjoy a truly immersive culinary journey.
