Aamlicious festival at Khandani Rajdhani - treat of the season!

Rajdhani Thali Restaurant that serves authentic Rajasthani and Gujarati food is having the Aamlicious festival - 'the king of fruits' mango festival across the outlets in the city and the country, and I was lucky enough to get to taste the same.




Let's look at the Menu. Kairi Panna and Aam Thandai were the drinks on the menu. The Aam Thandai  that was served had pepper in it and it was new to me; of different taste altogether!

The other items on the menu were Kairi Stuffed Bread Roll, Shahi Aam Dhokla, Mango Dry Fruit Ghugra, Chatpata Kacha Kairi Muthiya.

The Kairi Bread Rolls served had raw mango in it; had a refreshing and remarkable taste.







And in the main-course there was Arbi Mango Raswala, Aam Pyaaz ki Sabzi, Kaddu Kairi ka Bharta, Malabari Mango Kadi, Fajeto, Mango Pulao, Mango Jalebi and Amarkhand to name a few.





An annual ritual at Rajdhani Thali that I wouldn't have missed! I would recommend everyone  to come and take a trip down the memory lane like a child enjoying and rejoicing the mango season! 

Price Per Thali:

Lunch on weekdays - Rs.450 (inclusive of taxes)
Dinner & Weekends - Rs.499 (inclusive of taxes)

Samaroh's Aamostav - a celebration of Mangoes!

Samaroh means feast, ceremony; celebration - What better way to celebrate than with food! Samaroh Restaurant at Lavelle Road is having Aamotsav till 30th June 2017 and I was invited to be a part of it!

Dry Fruit Boondi
The best way to start a meal is with a Mitha as it signifies and hopes for a good and pleasant beginning of something. Dry Fruit Boondi and Keri Tomato Shorba with Heera Namkeen were served in the first course of the meal.

I personally relished the Nastha or the starters served after the shorba that included Keri Panna, Paneer Tikka, Keri Vegetable seekh, Wonton, Corn keri Tikka. Here I would like to mention specially about the Paneer Tikka which just melted in the mouth. The Paneer for the same was brought down from Delhi and was a real scene stealer.

Wonton, Keri Vegetable Seekh, Paneer Tikka, Corn Keri Tikki

Chole Chaat and Mango Samaroh Pani Puri were also among the other savories served.

And in the Mukhya Bhoj; Main Course included a diversified variety of food from all over regions of the country like Masala Jeera Chhas, Dal Makhni, Paneer Lababdaar, Mirchiwale Kofte, Keri ki Sabzi, Dum Aloo Mutter, Aam Ras, Roti and Veg Pulao curd rice, steamed rice etc.






Aam Ras
Aamras is also a traditional Gujarati dish called as Keri no ras. It consists of sugared Mango pulp, which is passed through muslin to remove fibrous strands of the fruit. It is commonly eaten with roti or pooris. 

The aamras that i tasted here was unique and mouthwatering!

Save the best for the last; In the Mitha Kulfi, Rabdi Malpua, Mango Chum Chum and Pantua were served. One of the best I had ever tasted as they were made with tender love and care. It was not less than a mom's made meal as recipes for many of the dishes were curated by the owner Mr. Jagmohan Bhutada's mom.


My son was totally pampered by the staff and they also served him his favorite cut mango pieces. 




An Epicurious meal to remember till next year.
