Speaking to My Kolkata, Anjan Chatterjee (fourth from the left), founder and chief managing director of Speciality Restaurants, said, ‘Mezzuna has always been loved in the restobar space in Kolkata. There was a request from customers, especially the residents of south Kolkata, to expand the space in South City. Previously, we could accommodate only 70 people, but now we can seat double that number, with space for 140. The new space is bigger, greener, and reminiscent of European drawing rooms. The idea for the interior came from my son, Avik’
