Seasonal Tastes welcomes their diners with decors that depict the rustic Punjabi heritage. As I entered the dining space, they looked like a never-ending array of food. The spread gives more focus on punjabi food varieties but the spread also consists of other cuisines.
The arrangement was noteworthy; well-designed spread across the dining space.
It definitely takes a short tour to initially know about each dish.

We were shown the dining room, where we were accompanied with the Chef. @ashish bhasin who were the master-architects behind the festival. Chef’s presence gave us the insight of punjabi cuisine, the local delicacies and ingredients used in cooking. We enjoyed the brief of each punjabi dish, which was served at our table. Here's my take on the punjabi food we tasted at our table:
The spread is humongous and it’s never going to be possible to eat everything in the spread. Nevertheless, do try in tiny portions and pick the best. Their punjabi delicacies is something never to be missed as I haven’t come across many authentic punjabi food restaurant at mumbai
The punjabi rivayaat Food Festival isn’t going to be there a yearlong so gear up and take the ride soon. Worth a visit if you love to explore the Punjabi Cuisine.
