Experience a blast from the past and Savour food from the royal families of Awadh, Sailana and Mewar. Go dig in!

It isn't everyday that one gets to experience royalty. The life of kings and emperors as they led it ufffd lavishly. While one can visit forts and palaces and museums and get a glimpse into a slice of their life, coming across their food is really difficult.



Most places that claim to serve royal food end up preparing a poor imitation of what our rajas and maharajas ate. So when we got the opportunity to literally get a taste of royal life, we didn't want to miss it. More so, because the erstwhile royal states in question were Awadh, Mewar and Sailana ufffd all three synonymous with good food. Needless to say we went jumping, a spring in our step, to Made in India in Noida's Radisson MBD to check out their ongoing promotional ufffd The Royal Re-past. We bring you the scoresheet here.

On a time machine
The Royal Re-past festival is about the signature dishes from three royal families of India ufffd namely Mewar, Sailana and Awadh. Plenty of legumes, pulses and the use of corn (makkai), milk, curd and buttermilk for gravies is the hallmark of Mewar cuisine. We tried signature dishes like Shorbedaar Murgh Natwara (Boneless chicken cooked in home-made style gravy), Kale Moti ke Pulao (Basmati rice cooked with black gram) and Makai ka Halwa (Minced American corn with sweetened, reduced milk) and loved them. The food is rich, but not rich enough to get you thinking about cholesterol problems.
