Bold and bright café specials
Enjoy a first-class duo of seasonal specials in our cafés this year. Chef’s special dish, Dahi Batata Puri is as well-loved in Bombay as Diwali itself. Tangy and moreish puris filled with batata (potatoes), dahi (fresh yoghurt), liberal mint chutney and tamarind drizzle are rubied with pomegranates – it is a constant pleasure. And to drink, Thandai (cooling), a refreshing tall drink of almonds, fennel, black pepper, cardamom and milk. Blended with ice and strewn with rose petals.
Both are available from 17th - 30th October at all cafés, giving ample time to devour on many occasions!
Vaisakhi, a day marked across India by people of many faiths, is celebrated in the Punjab as the start of the new Harvest. It falls on the 13th or 14th April depending on the calendar for that year.

We’re turning page after page of Ayesha Erkin’s recipe book Date of the Day, featuring 30+ recipes for the modest date – timely for breaking fast and after.

The holy month of Ramadan is upon us, when Muslims around the world fast daily from dawn till dusk. It is a time of private worship and spiritual discipline, but also of shared joy and abundant feasting. Families and communities come together at suhoor, the pre-dawn meal, and at iftar, the evening meal, to break their fasts with copious, delicious dishes. Join us on 7th April for our own Iftar celebration – for an evening of feasting and live music.
