Westin Gurgaon Unveils ‘A Tale of Modern Indian Flavors’—An Exclusive Three-Day Culinary Pop-Up at Sunset Story

Westin Gurgaon is set to redefine the dining landscape with ‘A Tale of Modern Indian Flavors’, an exclusive three-day pop-up at Sunset Story from 21st to 23rd February 2025. Curated by the acclaimed Chef Ankit Malhotra, this immersive gastronomic experience seamlessly blends traditional Indian flavors with contemporary techniques, offering an innovative and artfully curated multi-course menu.

A Culinary Journey Through India

Chef Malhotra’s menu is a tribute to India’s rich culinary heritage, weaving together regional inspirations, bold flavors, and artistic presentation.

• A Flavorful Prelude from Banaras: The journey begins in the vibrant gullies of Banaras with an Amuse Bouche—a Melon Terrine Chaat, enhanced by Mascarpone Yogurt, Chutney Caviar, and Smoked Chaas, delivering a burst of sweet, tangy, and smoky flavors.

• Warming Comforts from Kashmir: The First Course invites diners into the snow-laden valleys of Kashmir with a choice of Broccoli Almond Shorba, paired with a Blue Cheese Kulcha, or the slow-cooked Kashmiri Yakhni Shorba, offering warmth and depth in every sip.

• A Fusion of Italian Craftsmanship and North Indian Soul: The heartland of Punjab inspires an unexpected fusion—Tandoori Paneer Tortellini in a silky Makhani Sauce with a Parmesan Cracker, or the indulgent Charcoal Chicken Ravioli, where smoky notes meet rich North Indian flavors.

• Spice-Laden Creations from Maharashtra: The Bridging the Feast course features a Puneri Potato Wada, enhanced by a crunchy Bakarwadi Crumble, alongside Tapioca Khichdi. For a bolder option, the Kolhapuri Chicken Drumstick delivers fiery flavors, balanced with textural contrast.

• Coastal Elegance from Kerala: The culinary expedition peaks in Kerala, where diners can indulge in a fragrant Malabar Paneer Curry with crispy Urlai Roast or a succulent Grilled Sea Bass in the same aromatic curry, served with vibrant Green Asparagus. Accompaniments include Tomato Dal, flaky Malabar Paratha, Kerala Red Rice, and crispy Appalam—a celebration of coastal flavors.

• A Decadent Finale: Dessert offers a luxurious Milk Almond Tart, adorned with Gold Leaf and Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, alongside handcrafted Aniseed 72% Dark Chocolate Bark and Sweet Boondi Macarons for a final indulgence.
