Today marks the start of Onam, an annual harvest festival mostly celebrated by Malayalees over a period of 10 days. If you want to experience the festival – and with great fervour – make your way to Jamavar. The Indian restaurant is pulling out all the stops to make it a feast to remember.
This multi-course meal is presented on a traditional banana leaf, but think grand and indulgent, with options for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Coastal signatures like kingfish and Alleppey prawn curry are served together with coconut-laced vegetable curries, pineapple rasam, thoran, and more. To fill the pauses, there are banana chips and tangy pickles. What’s a celebration without dessert? Here you can enjoy a trio of comforting favourites such as pal payasam, parippu pradhaman payasam, and elaichi banana.
This limited-time menu is available until 5th September for both lunch and dinner, and is priced at AED 165 per person for the vegetarian menu and AED 195 per person for the non-vegetarian menu. View the menus here.
