Mumbai Gets The New Orleans Brunch It Has Been Missing At SoBo20 | Every Sunday

SoBo20 Launches Sunday Brunch, A New Weekly Brunch Experience
Mumbai, May 2026 - New Orleans has always had a way with Sundays, to fill every moment of celebration - with food that means something, music that moves, and the easy, unhurried pleasure of a table that nobody wants to leave. 

SoBo20, Mumbai's Franco-American boîte and bar on Marine Drive, has taken that spirit and made it its own. Beginning from 17th May, the restaurant introduces its latest offering, the  Sunday Brunch - a New Orleans and Louisiana-inspired Sunday afternoon interpreted entirely through SoBo20's singular Franco-American lens.


The SoBo20 Sunday Brunch is not a buffet, or a set menu. It is, quite simply, the Sunday you have been looking for - Unhurried, Luminous and Celebratory by nature, a rhythm that feels brighter, slower, and more alive, and unmistakably SoBo20 in its soul. 

At the centre of the room, a grazing table sets the tone, whipped feta and brown butter cannellini pâté beside artfully composed salads like the Herbed Beetroot Salad, a generous cheese board, a warm bread display, the kind of spread that rewards lingering. 

The cocktails come before you have to ask, and it leaves you wanting a second sip. The New Orleans Mary comes sharp and savoury with its salted rim and clarified spice, while the South Basil Smash feels made for long afternoons that stretch past intention. The Gin Paloma brings just enough heat to keep things interesting, and the Mango Martini among others is bright, cold and dangerously effortless, quickly becoming the drink nobody orders only once. 

And then the room starts moving. Crisp Pizzettes; the Louisiana Curry Puff, filled with the holy trinity of Cajun cooking and molten Pepper Jack, served beside a chilli cheese dip that demands repeat visits; Stracciatella Crostini layered over sourdough with basil pesto and olive oil, delicate but impossible to stop reaching for; Chilli Cheese Hot Dogs; among other bites that arrive as the afternoon finds its pace. These are not amuse-bouches, they are the beating pulse of the brunch, confident, moreish and designed to circulate.

The mains arrive with intention. The Eggs Benedict, set over soft brioche with smoked ham, poached eggs and hollandaise, is rich without excess and deeply satisfying in the way only a classic can be. The Étouffée Rice Pilaf brings the soul of Louisiana to the table through Cajun spice, creole cabbage, charred corn and mixed vegetables, layered and warm. For those leaning toward the sea, the Citrus Sea Bass arrives bright and delicate under a Mediterranean sauce, while the Shrimp & Grits - sautéed shrimp over stone-ground creamy grits - delivers exactly the kind of Southern comfort a New Orleans-inspired brunch should. And then there is the Summer Lemon Tagliolini, the lightest thing on the table and, somehow, the one that stays with you longest. The kind of pasta that makes you forget it is summer, and then reminds you with every bite. 

And then, as if the afternoon wasn't ready to let go, desserts arrive. The Chocolate Pâté needs no introduction, it anchors the table the way it always has and for good reason. Beside it, the In-house seasonal ice creams arrive as quieter pleasures, changing with the moment and designed to cool the long afternoon without interrupting it. And then comes the Banana Foster Turnovers, flaky, caramelised and impossible to share gracefully. 

The experience, incomplete without its music, doesn't ask for your attention - it earns it. Jazz-house fills every corner of the room, upbeat without urgency, the kind of sound that makes the afternoon stretch and the table linger. This isn't background music, this is the room, breathing.

And that is precisely the point of a SoBo20 Sunday, not a meal you fit into your day, but the reason you shaped your day around it. Chic, but never trying. Social, but never loud. The kind of afternoon that steals three hours without anyone minding.

Finland in the Skies: Finnair Launches Its Summer 2026 Onboard Menu | May 27 - October 30

New Delhi, May 2026: From 27 May to 20 October 2026, Finnair introduces a refreshed onboard dining experience inspired by the flavours of the Finnish summer.  Rooted in Nordic simplicity and seasonal ingredients, the menus draw inspiration from two distinctly Finnish summer notes: the brightness of fresh strawberries and the depth of delicately smoked notes, reimagined across all travel classes. With direct connectivity between Helsinki and Delhi, Indian travellers can seamlessly access Finnair’s new onboard dining experience as part of their journey to Northern Europe and beyond.

 Long-haul Business Class: Finnish flavours with destination-inspired touches

 For long-haul Business Class passengers departing from Helsinki, the onboard dining experience has been thoughtfully elevated to reflect the clean, balanced flavours of Finnish cuisine.

Starters spotlight ingredients from the Nordic pantry, including salmon pastrami with sour milk sauce and cauliflower, or marinated whitefish paired with sour cream potato salad and dill mayonnaise, depending on the route. A vibrant tomato broth with cream cheese, crushed peas, strawberries and jalapeño oil is served across all flights, offering a fresh and contemporary interpretation of Finnish summer flavours. Main courses continue the seasonal narrative alongside destination-inspired dishes that nod to local culinary traditions. Desserts include strawberry cake with rhubarb compote or chocolate cake with pistachio crème, complemented by a curated cheese selection served with fig compote.

 Finnair’s refreshed Business Class wine programme has been curated to complement the summer menu, featuring labels from across Europe. However, the most distinctive offering, however, is Finland’s own Ainoa Kaste, a lightly sparkling dessert wine crafted from lingonberry, honey and meadowsweet, capturing the character of a Finnish summer forest in every glass.

 Premium Economy and Economy: lighter, brighter seasonal dining

 The seasonal refresh extends across Premium Economy and Economy cabins, where menus have been designed with lighter sauces, fresher flavours and comforting favourites inspired by the Nordic summer.

 Premium Economy passengers can enjoy dishes such as chicken with shiitake mushrooms in Chikuzen sauce or linguine with prawns in Choron sauce, alongside a complimentary selection of hot, cold and alcoholic beverages throughout the flight.

 In Economy Class on long-haul routes, passengers are served a hot meal with non-alcoholic beverages and one complimentary alcoholic drink, with a second light meal offered on longer journeys. Additional snacks and refreshments can also be conveniently ordered through Finnair’s inflight entertainment system.

 European flights: expanded pre-order and onboard selections

 On European flights, Business Class passengers can pre-select from five main course options on day and evening services, spanning chicken, seafood and vegetarian dishes, paired with the airline’s refreshed summer wine selection.

 Economy Class travellers will also find an expanded onboard sales and pre-order menu, featuring new additions such as Asian chicken noodles, creamy pesto pasta, tomato and spinach lasagna, and green chicken curry on selected routes. Pre-order options range from the Northern Choice rye sandwich with cold-smoked salmon to Mediterranean-inspired vegetarian sandwiches with feta and hummus.

 Finnair’s signature blueberry juice or water continues to be offered complimentary on all flights except the shortest routes.

 Families travelling with children can also opt for the Kid’s Choice meal, which includes a turkey and cheese sandwich, juice, Moomin candy and an activity kit, a thoughtful touch designed to make flying easier for younger passengers.

 Designed around the journey
Finnair’s onboard dining programme is carefully tailored according to route, flight duration and departure timing. On select overnight Asian routes, including Hong Kong, Singapore and Osaka, passengers are first served a lighter meal followed by a brunch service later in the flight, a format mirrored across Premium Economy and Economy cabins.

Sahib Room & Kipling Bar Celebrates Its Anniversary with the Launch of The Sahib's Table – Edition I, Featuring Food Historian and Author Anoothi Vishal | 4 July

Mumbai, June 2026: As Sahib Room & Kipling Bar at The St. Regis Mumbai celebrates the anniversary of its reimagined journey, the restaurant introduces The Sahib's Table, a recurring series bringing together distinguished voices from the worlds of food, history, literature, and culture through immersive conversations and thoughtfully curated dining experiences. Edition I, taking place on 4th July 2026 and available throughout July, features acclaimed food historian and author Anoothi Vishal, whose extensive research into India's culinary heritage inspires an exploration of nineteenth-century Lucknow and the enduring legacy of Awadhi cuisine. Future editions will continue to spotlight celebrated historians, authors, artists, and cultural voices.

For the inaugural edition, Chef Taj Mohammed Sha presents Kim's Dastarkhwan, a specially curated five-course menu inspired by Rudyard Kipling's celebrated novel Kim and the vibrant cultural landscape of nineteenth-century Lucknow. Then one of the world's most cosmopolitan cities, Lucknow flourished as a centre of luxury where nawabs, poets, scholars, artists, British officers, and European merchants shaped a refined culture of etiquette, storytelling, music, and gastronomy. Under the patronage of wealthy nobility, celebrated Rikabdars, or master chefs, transformed Awadhi cuisine into one of the world's earliest expressions of luxury dining, where delicate flavours, fragrant aromatics, intricate techniques, and gracious hospitality came together in perfect harmony.

Drawing from this remarkable history, Kim's Dastarkhwan revisits recipes and culinary traditions that once graced royal courts and family dastarkhwans. The menu journeys through classics including Balai Toast, Chowk Chops, Matara Chaat, Kakori Kebab, and Lazeez Tikka, followed by signature creations such as Mahi Musallam, Murgh Wajid Ali, Qasr-e-Pukhtan, and Sahib Ki Dal-E-Khaas, accompanied by Sheermal, Taftan, and Lucknowi Kulcha. Inspired by Mirza Ghalib's celebrated accounts of Lucknow's lavish feasts, the experience concludes with Gosht Dum Biryani, Guchchi Pulao, and nostalgic desserts including Kesar Phirni, Imrati Rabdi, Nuqti Ke Laddoo, and Shahi Tukda, before ending with the traditional ritual of paan.

Beyond the menu, The Sahib's Table embodies Sahib Room & Kipling Bar's philosophy of immersive, storytelling-led hospitality. From a traditional welcome and narrative-led introductions to chef-led presentations, curated pickle tastings, sensory spice rituals, and live culinary theatre from the Spectacle Kitchen, every touchpoint is designed to transport guests into another era. The evening concludes with a traditional paan ritual and the restaurant's signature passport-stamping ceremony, transforming dinner into a memorable culinary voyage.

Complementing the experience is Scent Sculptures, Sahib Room & Kipling Bar's signature cocktail programme inspired by the celebrated attars of Lucknow. Fragrant notes of rose, jasmine, kewra, cardamom, and mitti attar evoke the city's enduring romance with perfume, poetry, and hospitality, extending the storytelling beyond the plate.

Over the past year, Sahib Room & Kipling Bar has established itself as one of Mumbai's most immersive luxury dining destinations, blending regional Indian cuisine with theatrical service, curated rituals, and the romance of Rudyard Kipling's literary world. As the restaurant enters its next chapter, The Sahib's Table creates a platform where meaningful conversations and exceptional dining come together. While Edition I with Anoothi Vishal sets the tone, the series will continue to invite guests to discover India's rich heritage through new voices, new stories, and new culinary journeys.

SMOOR Turns World Chocolate Day into India's Largest Chocolate Playground with SMOORLAND | 4th, 5th & 7th of July

At India's First Consumer-Facing Chocolate Factory Experience, Visitors Can Create, Compete, Taste and Even Bid for Chocolate Treasures

This World Chocolate Day, chocolate lovers are being invited to do much more than simply indulge in their favourite treat. Premium chocolate brand SMOOR is transforming its sprawling Experience Centre in Bengaluru into SMOORLAND – a three-day immersive chocolate festival happening on the 4th, 5th and 7th of July, that combines entertainment, craftsmanship, interactive experiences and family-friendly fun under one roof.

Hosted at the newly launched SMOOR Chocolate Factory Experience, a one-of-its-kind customer-facing chocolate factory spread across nearly 68,000 sq. ft., SMOORLAND offers visitors a rare opportunity to step behind the scenes of chocolate-making while participating in a carnival dedicated entirely to chocolate.

From hunting for hidden truffles inside a giant treasure ball pit and testing taste buds through blind chocolate challenges to creating personalized chocolate bars alongside SMOOR's master chocolatiers, the festival promises a hands-on experience unlike anything currently available in India.

What makes SMOORLAND particularly unique is its blend of factory tours, experiential retail and live entertainment. Visitors can explore the complete bean-to-bar journey through guided tours of the Experience Centre, participate in chef-led workshops, enjoy chocolate tastings, collect rewards through interactive challenges and unlock exclusive festival surprises throughout the day.

Among the biggest highlights is the debut of the SMOORLAND Auction House, a first-of-its-kind chocolate auction where guests can use coins earned through festival activities to bid for premium chocolates, desserts, gift hampers and exclusive experiences available only during the celebration.

The festival also features a packed line-up of attractions including the Truffle Treasure Ball Pit, Cocoa Wheel of Fortune, Tower of Temptation challenge, Frosted in the Dark cupcake decorating challenge, Blind Cocoa Challenge, tarot sessions, family games, customised keepsakes and meet-and-greets with beloved pop-culture characters.

Adding to the celebrations, SMOORLAND will extend beyond the Experience Centre with a special activation at Bengaluru Airport on World Chocolate Day, bringing a taste of the festival to travellers passing through one of India's busiest aviation hubs. The airport experience will feature some of SMOORLAND's most engaging attractions, including Hot Chocolate Pong, The Blind Cocoa Challenge, where participants guess different chocolate varieties, and Frosted in the Dark, a blind cupcake frosting activity.

As experiential retail and immersive food-led experiences continue to gain popularity among consumers, SMOORLAND represents a new approach to celebrating World Chocolate Day, one that combines entertainment, education, craftsmanship and indulgence into a single destination.

Blondie Presents: A Blind Date With Coffee – An Immersive Coffee Experience

Blondie presents A Blind Date With Coffee, an interactive tasting experience that invites guests to rediscover specialty coffee without labels, tasting notes, or preconceived expectations. Taking place on Saturday, 4th July at Blondie in Khar, the guided evening encourages participants to trust their senses, challenge their assumptions, and experience coffee in a completely new way.

The experience begins with an interactive Aroma Table, where guests explore ingredients inspired by the flavour notes hidden within the coffees they are about to taste. From lychee and hibiscus to cherry, pineapple, and rose, participants are encouraged to smell, guess, and build their own expectations before the first cup is poured.

Guests are then served three specialty pour-over coffees completely blind, with no information about their origin, producer, or flavour profile. Instead of relying on tasting notes, they score each coffee across four categories: Most Refreshing, Most Surprising, Most Complex, and I'd Order Again. Only after every coffee has been tasted are the beans revealed, uncovering their origin, processing method, producer story, and tasting notes, allowing guests to compare their own perceptions with the story behind each cup.

The experience continues with curated coffee and dessert pairings, demonstrating how food can completely transform flavour perception. Throughout the evening, guests are encouraged to discuss, debate, and compare their tasting experiences, making coffee appreciation both approachable and interactive.

To conclude the evening, guests vote for the coffee they would most like to take home. The winning coffee will become the Blondie Community Favourite, featured on the bar for a limited time and available for purchase with an exclusive event discount.

Hosted at the award-winning Kyoto-inspired speakeasy, ZLB23, the collaboration celebrates a shared appreciation for Japanese craftsmanship, thoughtful hospitality and immersive dining.

Founded by Anil Kably, Neale Murray, Owen Roncon and Chef Nooresha Kably, Idoru was conceived as more than a cocktail bar. Drawing inspiration from William Gibson's Idoru, the space was built around the idea of putting experience before everything else. Music, design, food and drinks exist as equal pillars, coming together to create an atmosphere that feels intentional yet effortless. At its core is a deep respect for Japanese bartending philosophy, where precision, balance and restraint guide every drink, while the culinary programme interprets Japanese flavours with warmth, comfort and quiet creativity. Since opening in Mumbai, Idoru has quickly established itself as one of the city's most distinctive new hospitality destinations, where every element, from the soundtrack to the final pour, is considered.

For its first guest shift outside Mumbai, ZLB23 at The Leela Palace Bengaluru provides a fitting stage. Recognised among Asia's 50 Best Bars and celebrated for its Kyoto-inspired identity, ZLB23 has built its reputation on craft-led cocktail programming, refined hospitality and collaborations that bring together some of the country's most exciting bar talent. United by a shared respect for Japanese philosophy while expressing it through distinct identities, the collaboration brings together two bars that continue to shape contemporary cocktail culture in India.

Anil Kably, Co-founder, Idoru, said, "From the moment we opened Idoru, we knew we wanted to eventually take the experience beyond Mumbai, but only when it felt right. We have never looked at takeovers as promotional exercises. They are an opportunity to exchange ideas, learn from other teams and introduce our philosophy to a new audience. Bengaluru has one of the most discerning cocktail communities in the country, and ZLB23 has consistently raised the bar for hospitality and craft. For our first guest shift, there couldn't have been a more meaningful partner or a better city to begin this journey."

Suchismita Roy, Assistant Food and Beverage Manager at The Leela Palace Bengaluru, added, "At ZLB23, we believe the most memorable collaborations are rooted in shared values. While Idoru and ZLB23 each have their own identity, both draw inspiration from Japanese philosophy through precision, hospitality and an uncompromising approach to craft. We are delighted to welcome the Idoru team to Bengaluru for their first-ever guest shift and offer our guests the opportunity to experience one of Mumbai's most exciting new bar concepts in a setting that celebrates thoughtful collaboration."

At the heart of Idoru's bar programme is a philosophy shaped through extensive research and training in Tokyo with Koki Ito-san of Raven. Guided by Japanese principles of balance, temperature, dilution, ice management and restraint, the cocktails prioritise clarity, texture and purpose over excess. Every ingredient is carefully considered, creating drinks that are expressive without being complicated and precise without losing their sense of warmth.

Bringing that philosophy behind the bar in Bengaluru will be Rahul Kamath, Bar Operations Head and Khanimwon Ramrar, Bartender, who will present four signature cocktails that reflect the spirit of Idoru. Guests can begin with Enmi, a refreshing salty highball combining Roku Sakura Gin, shio-koji, lemon, cinnamon and bubbles, inspired by Japan's beloved lemon sour. To Odoroki layers Laphroaig, shochu, mango, honey, mint, ginger and smoke into an unexpected yet harmonious composition that celebrates surprise through contrast. Ikura Opera pairs Roku Sakura Gin with wasabi, cucumber, yoghurt, cream, milk, lemon, honey and salmon roe, inviting guests to experience the drink alongside ikura as its flavours unfold in stages. Completing the menu is Margarita, Idoru's umami-forward interpretation of the classic, combining Don Julio Blanco, agave syrup and lime with bonito dashi, salt and tomato salsa.

The culinary programme mirrors the same philosophy of thoughtful restraint and quiet innovation. Led by Chef Nooresha Kably, the menu approaches Japanese flavours as reference points rather than rules, resulting in dishes that are comforting, layered and designed to complement the cocktail experience. Every plate balances familiarity with discovery, creating food that is equally at home alongside a drink or as the centrepiece of the evening.

Flying down with the kitchen for the evening are Nirav Gadre, Executive Chef, and Jagannath Deo, Commis Chef, who will present a specially curated menu featuring Cauliflower with ranch, chermoula and party mix; the playful Idoru 'Pizza' topped with stracciatella, tomato, kizami wasabi, finger lime and garlic chips; Dashi Mascarpone, a bonito-infused mascarpone served with ikura, fish flakes, chive oil and flatbread; the indulgent Bourdain Sando layered with pork mortadella, provolone and mustard; and the comforting Mini Don, bringing together sticky rice, smoked chicken, shiso and onsen tamago.

More than a guest shift, the evening represents a meeting of two hospitality philosophies shaped by Japanese influence while remaining deeply rooted in their respective cities. As Idoru embarks on its first journey beyond Mumbai and ZLB23 continues to champion collaborations that elevate India's cocktail culture, the takeover promises an immersive experience where exceptional drinks, thoughtful food and genuine hospitality come together for one memorable evening.

Serious Slice Cunningham Road Hosts a Collab with Chef Clive | June 28

TWO MAESTROS. ONE DOUGH. ONE SUNDAY LUNCH ONLY.

What happens when two chefs who speak the same language — 72-hour dough, wood fire, no shortcuts — share one kitchen? On Sunday, 28 June 2026, Serious Slice on Cunningham Road invites Bengaluru to find out.

India’s Pop-Culture Era Begins: Introducing C.O.R.E - Culture of Real Experiences | June 20-21

The Ultimate Playground of Fandom, Fantasy & Immersive Entertainment Arrives at Jio World Convention Centre with Global IPs, Anime, Gaming, Cosplay, Live Experiences and the Country’s First-Ever Experiences like no other

Mumbai,  May 2026  - This June, India will witness the birth of a cultural phenomenon. C.O.R.E - Culture of Real Experiences - is set to redefine fandom, entertainment, and immersive storytelling as the country’s first-ever official large-scale pop-culture festival arrives at the Jio World Convention Centre, Mumbai, from June 20–21, 2026.

Conceptualized by Fanthology Studios and Black White Orange, C.O.R.E is not just another convention; it is an expansive, multi-universe playground where fans don’t simply consume pop culture; they step inside it.

Bringing together official global and Indian licensors including SONY Music, Universal Pictures, Warner Bros, Demon Slayer, Doraemon, CloudCo (Carebears), Fuji Instax, MUSE (Spy x Family, One Punch Man, Dandadan), ISRO, the Indian Armed Forces, Godzilla, Baahubali, Kalki, Chupa Chups, Medialink (Jujutsu Kiasen, Haikyu!, My Hero Academia, Bleach, Chainsaw Man), Collective Studios  Historyverse and more, C.O.R.E marks India’s most ambitious attempt yet at building a globally benchmarked pop-culture ecosystem - one that blends fandom, entertainment, immersive experiences, retail, gaming, anime, music, cinema, creators, and live performances under one massive cultural umbrella.

With an expected footfall of over 30,000 visitors, the festival promises to transform the Jio World Convention Centre into a living, breathing pop-culture city spread across immersive themed “streets,” each designed as its own universe of storytelling, experiences, merchandise, music, food, creators, and fandom.

Speaking about the launch, Bhavik Vora, Co-Founder, C.O.R.E & Fanthology Studios, said, “India has one of the most passionate fan communities in the world, but we’ve never had a truly official, immersive, large-scale pop-culture destination that celebrates fandom the way global festivals do. C.O.R.E was born from an idea that gives an IP-safe space for brand owners, for fans who deserve more than just retail booths; experiences that transport them into the worlds they love. We wanted to create something that feels cinematic, emotional, interactive, and culturally defining. From anime and gaming to music, cinema, creators, cosplay and India’s own storytelling heritage, C.O.R.E is designed to become the country’s biggest celebration of fandom and real experiences.”” 

From anime alleys inspired by Akihabara and Shibuya to cinematic multiverses, gaming districts, nostalgia zones, and India-inspired fandom streets, C.O.R.E is designed to deliver the kind of experiential spectacle usually associated with global cultural juggernauts such as San Diego Comic-Con, Japan Expo in Paris & Thailand, and Star Wars Celebrations, Disney Expo 

The festival’s immersive experiences are set to include themed streaming rooms inspired by globally loved titles, anime viewing zones, interactive gaming universes, fandom installations, live performances, creator panels, cosplay championships, and large-scale experiential activations inspired by iconic entertainment franchises.

Fans can expect everything from a Godzilla-inspired zone recreation and anime trivia arenas to a life-sized ISRO space experience featuring astronaut installations and lunar rover replicas. Visitors will also be able to step into worlds inspired by Indian storytelling, mythology, sci-fi, gaming, superheroes, anime, and nostalgia-driven entertainment cultures.

The event will also feature official merchandise marketplaces with some of the biggest names in licensed pop-culture retail, including The Souled Store, Hamleys, Bonkers, The Entertainment Store, A47, Cosa Nostra and more, alongside independent artists, illustrators, creators, and fan communities.

Beyond fandom and retail, C.O.R.E is positioning itself as a creator-first and community-led platform, bringing together directors, screenwriters, artists, cosplayers, streamers, performers, musicians, and pop-culture enthusiasts into one shared cultural space.

The festival will also include:

  • Live cosplay championships and ramp walks

  • Creator meet-and-greets and live signings

  • Anime music performances and cosplay DJ sets

  • Workshops on SFX makeup, character design, wig styling, and comic art

  • Official pop-culture food courts

  • Interactive AR and VR zones

  • Family-focused entertainment experiences

  • Immersive photo installations and fandom sets

  • Exclusive collectibles and limited-edition merchandise drops

  • Fan contests offering opportunities to win trips to Japan and Universal Studios

At its heart, C.O.R.E aims to fill a huge gap in India’s entertainment and experiential landscape, creating a destination where fandom is no longer niche, but mainstream culture.

As streaming platforms, gaming culture, anime, creators, and fandom communities continue to explode across India, C.O.R.E arrives at a moment when the country’s young audiences are actively seeking experiences that go beyond passive consumption.

This June, Mumbai becomes the epicentre of that movement.

Welcome to C.O.R.E.  Where fandom becomes reality.

·       The 2-day event is expected to bring together 160-200 motorcycle riders from across Gujarat & neighbouring regions for a celebration of riding culture, camaraderie, adventure, & responsible motorcycling.

·       Organised by GMRA, the event will feature a range of activities including an off-road riding experience, pool party, games, entertainment sessions, networking opportunities, & community engagement activities.

·       Beyond the excitement of motorcycles and the spirit of brotherhood among riders, the association aims to deliver a powerful message on road safety & responsible riding.

·       Through this partnership, Ajay's Cafe & GMRA seek to remind riders that every journey should end safely because the true joy of riding lies in returning home to loved ones.

Surat, Gujarat,  June 2026: Ajay's Cafe, one of Gujarat's most loved café and food brands, has announced its association with the Gujarat Motorcycle Riders Association (GMRA) for the celebration of World Motorcycle Day 2026, scheduled to be held on 20-21 June 2026 at Le Vino, Daman.

The two-day event is expected to bring together 160-200 motorcycle riders from across Gujarat and neighbouring regions for a celebration of riding culture, camaraderie, adventure, and responsible motorcycling.

Organised by GMRA, the event will feature a range of activities including an off-road riding experience, pool party, games, entertainment sessions, networking opportunities, and community engagement activities.

Beyond the excitement of motorcycles and the spirit of brotherhood among riders, the association aims to deliver a powerful message on road safety and responsible riding. Through this partnership, Ajay's Cafe and GMRA seek to remind riders that every journey should end safely because the true joy of riding lies in returning home to loved ones.

The initiative draws inspiration from Ajay's Cafe's philosophy of creating moments of happiness and togetherness. For the brand, the phrase "Happy Wali Feeling" extends beyond food and celebrations; it is equally about the peace of mind and joy experienced by families when their loved ones return home safely after every journey.

Speaking about the initiative, Mr. Jaideep Solanki, Founder Director, Ajay's Cafe, said "For me, motorcycling has always been more than a hobby, it is a passion that has introduced us to an incredible community of riders who share the same spirit of adventure, friendship and mutual respect. As members of GMRA, we have experienced first-hand the strong sense of brotherhood that exists within the riding fraternity. Our association with World Motorcycle Day is a celebration of that spirit.”

“At Ajay's Cafe, we believe that the most meaningful journeys are the ones that create memories and bring people closer together. At the same time, every rider carries a responsibility towards the loved ones waiting back home. The true joy of any ride lies in returning safely, because that's when families experience the real 'Happy Wali Feeling'. We are proud to stand alongside GMRA in celebrating the riding community and the values that unite it.”  He added.

GMRA has long been committed to promoting a culture of responsible riding while fostering a strong sense of brotherhood among motorcycle enthusiasts. The World Motorcycle Day celebrations will further strengthen this commitment by bringing together riders who share a common passion while advocating safe and disciplined riding practices.

Holiday Inn Bengaluru Racecourse Brings Kerala’s Backwater Flavours to Bengaluru with ‘Kerala Kismet’ | 19June to 30 June

A limited-period culinary showcase at Glass Kitchen & Bar celebrates Kerala’s coastal kitchens, heirloom recipes and spice-led traditions from 19th to 30th June 2026.

Bengaluru’s appetite for regional Indian dining gets a distinct coastal accent this June as Holiday Inn Bengaluru Racecourse presents Kerala Kismet: Tales of the Backwaters, a limited-period Kerala food festival at Glass Kitchen & Bar from 19th to 30th June 2026.

Curated for lunch and dinner, the showcase brings together the warmth of Kerala’s coastal kitchens, coconut-rich curries, spice-forward preparations and time-honoured recipes in an à la carte format.

Moving beyond a standard hotel promotion, the festival is positioned as a flavour-led journey through Kerala’s culinary landscape — from Malabar and Alappuzha to Munnar and Trivandrum. The menu spotlights regional ingredients, slow-cooked gravies, traditional spice blends and dishes that reflect the state’s deep connection with the sea, backwaters and spice trade.

Speaking about the festival, Pankaj Sah, Executive Sous Chef, Holiday Inn Bengaluru Racecourse, said, “Kerala’s food has an unmistakable sense of place — from the fragrance of coconut and curry leaves to the boldness of coastal spices. With Kerala Kismet: Tales of the Backwaters, we wanted to bring that authenticity to the table through dishes that are rooted in tradition but presented for today’s diners. Each plate is designed to tell a story of the region, its homes, markets and backwater communities.”

Menu highlights include Malabar Mutton Soup, Trivandrum Koon Coconut Roast, Alappuzha Veg Curry and Alappuzha Chemmeen Thenga Kari. Guests can pair these with Munnar Pathiri Roti and end with Ela Ada, the classic steamed sweet filled with coconut and jaggery.

Together, the selection offers diners a compact yet evocative taste of Kerala’s comfort food, festive specials and coastal favourites.

The festival also builds Glass Kitchen & Bar’s contemporary coastal identity, giving Bengaluru diners a timely reason to revisit the restaurant for a focused regional experience. Set against the backdrop of a modern dining space, Kerala Kismet brings the nostalgia of home-style recipes together with the polish of a hotel-led culinary showcase.

Marriott Executive Apartments Hyderabad Brings the Soul of Andhra Cuisine to Hyderabad | 16 to 21 June

Moving beyond the familiar perception of Andhra cuisine as simply spicy, Mazzo at Marriott Executive Apartments Hyderabad is set to present a nuanced exploration of the region's culinary heritage through a special Andhra food showcase curated by celebrated Telugu cuisine expert Chef Meera Girija Tadimeti.

For Chef Meera, Andhra food is a reflection of culture, memory, and the philosophy of Shadruchulu - the harmonious balance of six tastes that define traditional Telugu cooking. Bringing this philosophy to life, the festival celebrates the diversity of Andhra's culinary landscape through recipes that have been passed down through generations.

Guests can begin their journey with beloved regional favourites such as Pesara Punugulu, Cabbage Vada, Chicken Cheekulu, and Kobbari Muttilu, before moving on to hearty specialties including Andhra Veg Pulao, Andhra Chicken Pulao, the rustic and wholesome Ragi Sangati, and comforting bowls of Mamidikaya Pappu. Signature dishes such as Dosakaya Mutton, Beerakaya Royyalu, and Vankaya Kothimeera Karam showcase the depth and character of Andhra home-style cooking, while traditional accompaniments including Avakaya, Pachi Pulusu, Kobbari Karam, and Kandi Podi add layers of flavour that are quintessentially Telugu.

The experience concludes on a sweet note with traditional favourites such as Kova Bobbatlu and Pakam Garelu, complemented by a refreshing glass of Frozen Rose Milk.

Set against the warm and inviting ambience of Mazzo, the festival offers guests an opportunity to savour authentic Andhra flavours, rediscover forgotten recipes, and experience the stories and traditions that continue to shape one of India's most vibrant regional cuisines.
