Kolkata, April 17, 2025: Hyatt Centric Ballygunge Kolkata invites guests to immerse themselves in the vibrant spirit of Thailand with a specially curated Thai Food Festival at TESS, scheduled from 18th to 27th April 2025. Designed to bring the energy and flavour of Thailand’s bustling street food culture to Kolkata, the festival offers a thoughtfully crafted menu that celebrates the essence of Thai cuisine.
Guests can begin their culinary journey with refreshing appetisers such as Yum Mamuang, a zesty raw mango salad tossed with roasted peanuts, cayenne pepper, and plum sugar, delivering a perfect harmony of sweet, spicy, and tangy flavours. Vegetarian selections include the delicate Thai Steamed Chive Dumplings, filled with fragrant greens, and Tofu Ping, grilled tofu skewers finished with a tangy chilli tamarind glaze, offering depth and smokiness in every bite.
For non-vegetarian diners, the menu showcases bold and comforting dishes like Goong Ping, Thai-style grilled prawns with a fiery glaze; Gai Wings Ping, tender chicken wings coated in a sweet and spicy marinade; and Thai Fish Grilled in Banana Leaf, featuring seabass marinated in aromatic curry paste and grilled to perfection. Another festival highlight is the classic Gai Pad Krapow, a flavourful stir-fry of minced chicken with Thai holy basil, bird’s eye chilli, and jasmine rice, bringing together heat, umami, and balance in every bite.The celebration concludes with the much-loved Thai Roti, a pan-fried golden pancake drizzled with sweetened condensed milk, a simple yet indulgent dessert that captures the nostalgic charm of Thai street food.
