Riviera by Jean Imbert Celebrates Truffle Season in Style
The Lana Dorchester Collection Dining Experiences at Riviera

January marks the height of truffle season, and at Riviera by Jean Imbert, it’s celebrated with a menu that feels both luxurious and deeply refined. Available through February 2026, Truffle Month showcases the finest truffles sourced directly from France, allowing their aroma, depth, and intensity to take center stage.
Each à la carte dish is thoughtfully crafted by Riviera’s culinary team, striking a perfect balance between elegance and complexity.
Seasonal ingredients complement the truffles rather than overpower them, resulting in plates that are rich yet restrained—ideal for diners who appreciate culinary finesse.
Set on the fourth floor of The Lana, Riviera’s sophisticated ambiance and sweeping views elevate the experience even further.
