Monsoons usually are a time of sluggish eating. With appetites going for a toss, a menu specially made for monsoons is a perfect idea. But when this menu has been curated with Padmashree Dr Pushpesh Pant, it becomes even more interesting. The Monsoon Menu is running at Le Meridien’s avant garde restaurant Eau De Monsoon which serves as a perfect foil for this menu. The menu has been sourced from all the coastal regions on India as Dr Pant digs into his vast experience to bring together seasonal dishes.

Monsoon MenuWe start off with their cappuccino. This time it’s Carrot and Fennel as Chef Anil suggests a few beauties from the menu. We start off with a plate of starters. There’s an egg kebab from the coasts of Malabar to start it all off, Mutta Chutney Kebab (INR 1175). An Indian devilled egg with a fluffy egg white exterior, similar to that of a Kabiraji. A delectable soft spice from the Malabar coast along with a hint of coconut makes for a delectable start. The Beingelas Fritas Monsoon Menu(INR 895) from Goa bring backs memories from the summers spent in Burdwan. The Brinjal fritters seem to be as famous in the western part of the country. But it’s the Chettinad Iraichi Poriyal (INR 1175) that will blow your mind away. Succulent soft pieces of mutton spiced up with the Chettinad flavours creates an explosion on the palate. A word about the three eccentric chutneys before we move along. There is a Sorak or spicy gravy from Goa, Date pickle from the Malabar coast and Toasted Cumin chutney from Bengal.

Monsoon MenuWe clean off our palate with a watermelon sorbet which cuts across the dominant India flavours. The mains are a Picante De Jaca Verde (INR 1125) which consist of jackfruit which will hit you with the typical heat of Goan dishes. The Chemmen Manga Charu (INR 1895) will impress mango lovers thoroughly. The prawns are cooked up along with some mangoes to give it a tangy twist. We accompany all this with some breads from the kitchens of Eau De Monsoon and some Mushroom rice (INR 1395) from the Chettinad region. Do try out this rare menu and let us know in the comments below what impressed you the most.

Kindly note that the portion sizes are not indicative of prices as these are tasting samples.

I am never a fan of getting myself clicked but a tryst with history had a fan girl moment in me.
🏵️
During my graduation in history from Delhi University, I was a big fan of Roman history. So when I was actually in a historical place right out of my books, I couldn't stop myself from getting?

Often listed amongst the best beaches in the world, Anse Lazio in Praslin, Seychelles truly open gates to altogether new world. And let me tell you, reaching here was quite a journey. One has to reach the bottom of the hill to Zimbabwe either by car or bus, then one has to trek over a large forested jungle clad hill and along some way before you reach the beach. But the journey is well worth the effort with views that take your breath away perfect with fine white sands and gorgeous turquoise waters that are so clear you can watch the fish swim around you, it's no surprise Anse Lazio is frequently called 'the best beach in the world'.

Sniffing is one of the essential steps to enjoying the flavour of any new drink. Sniffing opens up a new array of flavours that you can experience on your palate.

When traveling, definitely discover a Beverage destination. We headed to the @Takamaka Rum Seychelles distillery with @Creole Travel Services where we fell in love with the slow pace, exquisite beach and two barrel aged rums. The Extra Dark is aged twice, first in French Oak and then in reused Bourbon casks for three years and the St. Andre which has been aged for eight years in American Bourbon casks. Which one should we get back for tasting?
