A Season of Sensory Delight: The Mango Festival at Six Senses Vana

“When nature ripens, we simply follow.”

At Six Senses Vana, food isn’t just nourishment—it is a conversation with nature, a reflection of seasonal wisdom, and a ritual of care. Guided by our culinary philosophy and the Eat With Six Senses ethos, every ingredient on the plate has a purpose. This summer, we celebrate India’s most beloved fruit—the mango—in its purest, most thoughtful expression.

Welcome to the Mango Festival: a curated, sensory-forward celebration of the season’s golden gift. Rooted in mindfulness and flavour, the festival brings together honest cooking and ecological awareness—crafted by our culinary team using mangoes grown right here in our own chemical-free orchards.

This isn’t indulgence for indulgence’s sake—it’s nature on a plate, served with respect, restraint, and joy.

The Signature Creations

Mango & Black Rice Sushi
A mindful twist on a Japanese classic
This dish captures simplicity and surprise. Earthy black rice—nutritious and naturally sweet—is gently seasoned and rolled with sun-ripened mango slices, then topped with delicate mango batons for a bright, jewel-like finish. It’s light yet deeply satisfying, a quiet harmony of textures and temperatures.

Mango & Coconut Laddu

Tradition, with a tropical soul
Just four ingredients: toasted dry coconut, fresh mango purée, cardamom, and crushed pistachio. Shaped by hand and rich with warmth, this laddu is everything we believe nourishment should be—comforting, honest, and deeply rooted in culture.

Mango Chunda Sandwich

A nostalgic nod, reimagined
This warm toasted sandwich features house-made mango chunda, a sweet-spicy preserve made with raw mango, jaggery, and a blend of Indian spices. Layered between brown bread or focaccia, it’s a playful homage to Gujarat’s culinary heritage—with a Vana signature.

Zesté Mango

The season, in a sip
A vibrant summer mocktail that balances brightness and body—mango pulp, passion fruit, lemon juice, and ice, blended to a silky texture and served over swirls of house-made chamoy. Finished with mango cubes and fresh mint, it’s a refreshing tonic for both body and spirit.

Each creation in this festival respects the mango’s inherent character. Instead of overpowering its sweetness or glossing over its texture, we let it breathe—accompanied only by what uplifts it. Whether paired with indigenous grains, fermented preserves, or gentle spices, the mango remains the muse and the message.

At Six Senses Vana, seasonal dining is not just a practice—it’s a ritual. A chance to reconnect with our senses, slow down with intention, and experience food not as a product, but as a process.

Come, savour the season with us. Let mango be your muse.
