REVIEW FOR RAJASTHANI FOOD FESTIVAL

Firdaus, the Indian restaurant of the Taj Krishna, is presenting a banquet of zesty Rajasthani dishes for its Rajasthani Food Festival, from 20th July. This lavish feast from the land of warriors will have various traditional dishes prepared by guest chefs Behrulal Gamethi and Chandra Singh Rathore.

Authentic Rajasthani dishes like the Dal-Bhati, Besan-Chakki, Churma, Jhajariya, Tarfini, Bail-Gatte, Panchkoota, Chaavadi, Laapasi, Nukhti, Googri, Gatte Ki Sabzi, Dhungari Hui Chaach, Missi Roti, Jaipuri Mewa Pulao, Vegetable Khichdi, Kesar Murg, Malpua, Ghevar, Balushahi, Moong Dal Halwa, Raabdi and Misri Mawa will feature here.

Firdaus has been decked out in Rajasthani style with rich and vibrant colors, complete with folk music in the background. The staff will welcome the guests in traditional Rajasthani costumes.

Rajasthani cuisine is predominantly vegetarian and dazzling in its variety. In general, Rajasthani dishes are spicy and rich in flavor. Rajasthanis relish ghee, which is an integral part of many of the preparations. The most famous dish would probably be dal-bati - spicy lentils with baked balls of wheat and lots of ghee.

The variety of sweet dishes is also immense, and sweets are relished as much as the spicy curries in Rajasthan. In Rajasthani customs, desserts are had before, during and after the meal.

The festival is on till 30th July, for lunch and dinner, a la carte. Please contact 6666-2323 for further details.
