Kangan’s Comorin Popup Takes Diners on an Indian Culinary Journey
Kangan is hosting a special food popup connected with Comorin.
Chef Anuj Bhalla created dishes inspired by different parts of India.
The meal includes both vegetarian and non-vegetarian foods.
Some dishes are familiar, like pao bhaji and dal pakwan.
Others, such as Ragi Ambli and Arbi Galawat, may be new to many diners.
The chef gives traditional recipes his own restaurant-style interpretation.
The menu also includes a milder version of haleem from Hyderabad.
Wines are selected to match the spices, richness and freshness of the dishes.
The experience is designed to feel like a relaxed trip through Indian food traditions.
Chef Anuj Bhalla’s menu presents speciality dishes inspired by regions and states across India.
The menu includes interpretations of haleem, arbi galawat, dal pakwan, pao bhaji and Champaran mutton.
Vegetarian options include smoked-arbi galawat and Malai Paneer Rara made with soya keema and chenna.
The food popup is hosted at Kangan in The Westin Hyderabad Mindspace.

Quotes
Kevin Rodrigues
Head of Wines at EHV International and designer of the popup’s wine pairing programme
“The idea is less about rigid rules and more about finding wines that allow the complexity of the food to come through, with each pairing adding another layer to the dining experience.”
