Grand Mercure Bangalore has announced The Anglo-Indian Heritage Table, a limited-period culinary experience curated in collaboration with award-winning cookbook author, culinary researcher, and food consultant Bridget White-Kumar, celebrating the rich legacy of Anglo-Indian cuisine.

Inspired by recipes that evolved across Dak Bungalows, Army Camps, Railways, and Country Clubs during the British Raj, the specially curated menu showcases Anglo-Indian classics that reflect a distinctive blend of Indian and European culinary traditions. Rooted in family recipes and extensive historical research, the experience offers guests an opportunity to rediscover a cuisine that has played an important role in India's gastronomic heritage.

The culinary showcase will be hosted across two of the hotel's signature dining venues. Guests can enjoy a specially curated dinner buffet at The Verandah on 31 July and 1 August, featuring a selection of heritage Anglo-Indian dishes. The experience will conclude with a specially curated Sunday Brunch at By The Blue on 2 August, coinciding with World Anglo-Indian Day, with an expanded spread of traditional favourites.

Commenting on the collaboration, Parag Shah, General Manager, Grand Mercure Bangalore, said, "At Grand Mercure Bangalore, we are committed to showcasing India's rich culinary diversity through authentic experiences. Partnering with Bridget White-Kumar allows us to present the heritage of Anglo-Indian cuisine through recipes that celebrate its history, traditions, and enduring appeal."

Sharing her thoughts on the collaboration, Bridget White-Kumar said, "Anglo-Indian cuisine is deeply rooted in history, family traditions, and cultural exchange. I am delighted to collaborate with Grand Mercure Bangalore to bring these heritage recipes to guests and celebrate a cuisine that continues to be cherished across generations."

The Anglo-Indian Heritage Table forms part of Grand Mercure Bangalore's ongoing efforts to celebrate India's diverse regional cuisines through immersive dining experiences that highlight the stories, traditions, and flavours behind the country's rich culinary heritage.
