An Indian Food Festival will take place from September 12 to 19 at Café Rivoli of the Sofitel Saigon Plaza.
The week-long event features the renowned Master Chefs, Chef Sanjay B. Dasari and Girishkumar Palliyal Ayichthu who will transform their talented skills into a wide array of authentic Indian dishes. This is the time for gourmands to experience the diversity of Indian rich culinary heritage while enjoying entertainment extravaganza with favorite yoga dancers.
“Indian cuisine is different from rest of the world not only in taste but also in cooking methods. It reflects a deep heritage that has been flavored through many diverse influences and exchanges. It is known for the use of various spices. But one should not forget that every single spice used in Indian dishes, carries some nutritional as well as medicinal properties”, says Master Chef Sanjay B. Dasari, who successfully led several Indian Food Festivals around the world.
The famous Karuvepillai Ira — Prawns marinated in a delicate mix of Indian Spices and tossed in with Curry Leaves— is a foodie’s delight. Among the main course fare, the Uppu Kari — succulent pieces of lamb marinated in salt and cooked with an exotic mix of spices— stands out for its exquisite taste. The dessert section as well has many surprises in store. Apart from the regular Kheer to Phirnis and Rabri, the Kesari Bhat is something to die for.
Indian Buffet is available daily from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. at Café Rivoli and priced at VND850,000++ per adult, VND425,000++ per child from 6 - 12 years old, free for children under 6.
