The specially curated menu features a wide variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian sizzlers, prepared using premium ingredients and bold flavours. Each platter is served with flavourful sauces, fragrant rice or noodles, grilled vegetables, and indulgent desserts, offering a complete dining experience.

Served fresh on hot plates, every dish arrives with its signature sizzle, filling the air with smoky aromas while creating a visual spectacle at the table. The festival blends global inspirations with local tastes, giving diners a fresh take on classic sizzlers that appeals to families, food lovers, and guests of all ages.

To complement the experience, Moon Tree Café has been decorated with vibrant elements inspired by live sizzling cuisine, creating a lively and welcoming setting for guests throughout the festival.

Speaking on the occasion, Mukesh Rakshit, General Manager, Sayaji Kolhapur, said, “We are delighted to introduce the Sizzler Food Festival, a celebration that brings together sizzling flavours, premium ingredients, and memorable dining experiences. Through this festival, we aim to offer our guests an exciting culinary journey where every platter delivers the perfect combination of taste, aroma, and visual appeal, making every meal a truly unforgettable experience.”

The festival also celebrates the rich history of the sizzler, which first originated in California during the late 1950s before being introduced to Indian diners in Mumbai in 1963 by Mr. Firoz Erani. Over the years, it has become one of India's most iconic restaurant experiences, and the festival pays tribute to this legacy while showcasing modern flavours and creative presentations.

The Sizzler Food Festival invites families, food enthusiasts, and diners across Kolhapur to enjoy the irresistible combination of sound, aroma, and flavour that makes sizzling platters a timeless favourite.
