Diwali at Benares

Celebrate Diwali with a special tasting menu in honour of the Festival of Lights. Available from 28 October to 3 November, curated expertly by Chef Sameer Taneja, the Diwali Tasting Menu is packed full of celebratory dishes and flavours, priced at £129pp for eight courses.

In keeping with the Diwali tradition of gifting, every guest that enjoys the tasting menu will receive an envelope containing special gifts or prizes, such as complimentary signature cocktails or desserts on the night, as well as the chance to win a tasting menu with wine pairings at the Chef’s Table.

The menu includes Scottish Halibut Tikka and Hing-Mutter Shorba with Scallop, a dish inspired by the cultural heritage of the city of Benares. Sparkling Tea acts as a palate cleanser before the irresistible flavours of Butter Chicken Samosa, and Lumina Lamb Pulao. Malai Ghevar, an airy pastry filled with condensed milk and nuts, will provide a sweet conclusion to the Diwali feast.
