Avadh food
fest
 An
ethnic Avadh food festival
from the land of Moghuls is being held by Navaratna restaurant of Hotel Le Royal
Meridien in Chennai from December 5-16. Avadh food is a
harmonious blend with a unique flavour not found anywhere else. Navaratna, the
Royal Indian Cuisine Restaurant at Le Royal Meridien, will host the Sham-e-Avadh
food festival.
Experience the spectacular
exhibition of authentic Avadhi cuisine prepared by a 'Speciality chef' from
Lucknow. You can savour an impeccable mix of non-vegetarian and vegetarian
delights like 'zaffrani murgh yakhani/ kakori kabab / murgh gulabi kabab /
shann-e-Awadh chaamp / paneer pasanda zaffrani/ subzi nirali sheek / raan-e-Awadh /
Jhinga Wajid Ali Shah / maah ki dal khasqi / murh kofta yakhni pulao... these
are just a few highlights from the menu. For a sweet end, there is shakramba
/ zaffranizardapulao/sheer-ebarf.
 The festival evokes the
indolent spirit of the Nawabs and the atmosphere is truly royal. To liven up the
evenings, there is a virtual feast for the ears in terms of re-living some
lifting and soul-stirring ghazals by Nausad Khan.
Says Ramachandran, director,
food & beverage of Le Royal Meridien Chennai, "Food festivals are not
just an occasion to present the best of the country's cuisine to its citizens as
well as visiting foreigners but also serve to revive past memories of kings and
nobles who were so much fond of good food that they elevated gastronomy to a
form of art."
Le Royal Meridien Chennai is
owned by Appu Hotels Ltd and operated by Le Meridien as agents of the owner.
 With the festival endeavouring
to provide a fine dining experience among the royalty, 'Sham-e-Avadh' promises
to be an out-of-the-world experience. All in all, a festival which will
transport you to the past. "For the cuisine to be exceptional, the taste
has to be enigmatic and this spelt the birth of Avadh cuisine, which is being
rediscovered at the Navaratna restaurant," says Jugesh Arora, executive
chef of the hotel.
The restaurant is a tribute to
the royal cuisines of India and traverses through the wide-flung regions of
south and north India. Journey through the roads of gourmet perfection at this
authentic Indian restaurant serving the country's finest royal Indian cuisine.
Live Ghazal performances. A private dining room is available for up to 12
persons and an intimate bar for pre-dinner drinks, add Nalina Saravanan,
operations manager, and Vimal Shankar, hotel PRO.
