Review about the Mast Kalandar's Special Navratri Traditional Thalis - CMH Road, Indiranagar, Bangalore

It was one of those say when me and my friends visited a branch of the much renowned  and popular restaurant chain , Mast Kalandar.

We were welcomed wholeheartedly and Chef Samta Gupta generously talked about the use of Senda namak ( rock salt ), the way it absorbs the impurities from our body and are specially and compulsorily used during the vrath . She also mentioned that it absorbs the impurities from the surrounding if it’s kept out in a bowl. Wow !!!I was impressed about that little but golden piece of info and happy that I have been using this salt all through my cooking for the past couple of months.

Another important ingredient is kuttu flour ( buckwheat flour) which is popular globally these days and people end up making anything and everything including pancakes.

Anyway to say more about the event, we had couple of cooking demo about few dishes cooked during vrath and they generously passed on the recipes too. Not to forget to mention I am going to try the makhana kheer which is really mouth-watering. The sweet tooth in me couldn't wait to try the delicacy at the event :) . I am sure to try once or more in my kitchen too.

They had a spread of the utsav  thali and the vrath thali both  of it was looking fabulous . The people being so generous, we could taste all the dishes we wished for and undoubtedly all tasted yum!  The vrath thali too tasted good even after having so many restricted ingredients.

They look very promising about the sourcing of their ingredients from the right places too , so why not try it this navarathri :) 

I would really recommend trying their spread during the navarathra days.

Ustav thali ( Rs 229)

Vrath thali ( RS 229)

The thali lookswholesome, healthy and tasty and the upvas thali really stick to the norms of restricted  ingredients during the fasting days.

  

Try out ! 
Happy Durga pooja and Navarathri !!

Thankyou!
