The Prep for the dishes at Gemelli is made downstairs at PANTRY Kitchen, which is also owned by Khojane. Not only is PANTRY Kitchen a prep-kitchen for Gemelli Cucina Bar, it also offer patrons an exciting all - day breakfast offering from 07h30 to 17h30. The food menu takes inspiration from global favourites, with a hint of Gemelli flair. Fresh pastries, carb-clever options, brunch classics and a breakfast burger recently dubbed "The Problem", all feature on a thoughtful, concise menu with something for everyone. Freshly pressed fruit juices or herbal teas from TWG feature prominently. Or, marry your breakfast with an outstanding cup of coffee from Manaka Coffee for a truly memorable experience. From 18h00 the venue serves as a private dining space available by booking only to clients who would like to have an exclusive dining experience with a private chef, staff and space.

 

Manaka (meaning horns) is a coffee roastery business where Khojane is a business partner. Manaka Coffee is served at all of Khojane’s restaurants, including the newly established ZIO La Famiglia in Hyde Park’s Hyde Square. The food menu at ZIO speaks of comfort, layers of delicious flavour and paying homage to fine local produce. In the form of a modern trattoria, ZIO has true Italian as its core, with the chef’s personality and palate added for flair. Expect classic flavours, married with clever cooking techniques, from a distinguished team in an exciting new space. ZIO aims to present itself as a food-forward bistro where excellent product and full, robust flavour are never compromised.
