Navroz in Mumbai: Grand Parsi Feasts to Welcome the New Year

Navroz arrives with warmth, nostalgia and a table full of celebration in Mumbai. This year, two remarkable culinary destinations invite diners to savour the flavours of the Parsi New Year through beautifully curated festive spreads that honour heritage while embracing indulgence.

Kadak Celebrates Navroz with a Parsi Inspired Feast

At Kadak inside ICONIQA Hotel Mumbai International Airport, Navroz unfolds as an intimate celebration of café nostalgia and festive comfort. The specially curated Navroz no Bhonu on 20 March invites guests to immerse themselves in a menu inspired by Irani Parsi café traditions blended with the chef’s Bengal influenced culinary journey.

The experience begins with bakery staples that evoke the charm of a classic Irani café morning. Guests can enjoy Brun Maska with khari biscuits, pav and soft rolls paired with flavourful egg preparations such as Akuri, Keema per Eedu and Paneer Bhurji served with tangy chilli vinegar.

The appetiser spread brings together beloved Parsi favourites including Chicken Farcha, Mutton Cutlets, Vegetable Cutlets, Dal ni Pakodi and the ever popular Parsi Fish Fry. Traditional steamed delicacies such as Patra ni Machhi and Patra ni Paneer add aromatic richness to the experience.

The heart of the menu celebrates comforting gravies and rice preparations with Sali Boti finished with crisp potato sali, Kolmi no Patio, Chicken Dhansak and Veg Dhansak. Accompaniments include Berry Pulao, Brown Rice, Dhana Jiru Rice along with kachumber, lagan nu achar and papad.

Desserts complete the festive journey with timeless indulgences such as Lagan nu Custard, Caramel Custard Cups, Mawa Cake Bites, Mini Falooda Cups and Kesar Pista Kulfi.
