Start the evening with a glass of bubbles or a mocktail, followed by crisp chat bombs bursting with spiced yoghurt and tamarind, alongside an array of flavour-packed curries served in tiffin towers, and irresistible street plates such as the Gunpowder Chicken and Himalayan Cheese Toast. The evening will be topped with delicious desserts, and a Christmas cracker for each guest.
Those looking to celebrate in even greater style can dine from Mowgli’s much-loved Grand Table Christmas Feast (£55 per person). A theatrical, banquet-style experience inspired by India’s grand family celebrations.
