This August, embark on an unparalleled culinary voyage at Blooms, the celebrated multi-cuisine restaurant at Eros Hotel New Delhi Nehru Place, as it proudly presents "Bangla Swad" – a week-long celebration of Bengal’s rich and diverse culinary heritage. From August 19th to 25th, indulge in an array of traditional Bengali delicacies, meticulously crafted to transport your taste buds straight to the heart of Bengal.

A Taste of Tradition

Bengal's culinary tradition is a testament to the region's rich history, vibrant culture, and deep love for food. The menu at "Bangla Swad" is a carefully curated selection that captures the essence of this region's unique gastronomy, offering both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options that showcase the depth and diversity of Bengali cuisine.

For non-vegetarian enthusiasts, the spread includes some of Bengal’s most iconic dishes. Savor the rich and hearty Kosha Chicken, known for its slow-cooked perfection, or dive into the flavors of Murger Jhol, a soulful chicken curry with a distinctive mustard and tomato base. The Chicken Stew offers a lighter, aromatic option, while fish lovers will revel in the robust flavors of Macher Kaliya, Doi Macch, and Sorson Macch, each dish highlighting Bengal’s celebrated tradition of fresh, riverine fish, marinated and cooked with authentic spices and techniques that have been passed down through generations.

Vegetarians are in for a treat with offerings like Echorer Dalna, a hearty jackfruit curry that’s both comforting and full of flavor, and Mochar Ghonto, a unique banana flower preparation that is as nutritious as it is delicious. The Veg Dudh Shukto, a medley of vegetables in a lightly spiced, milk-based broth, provides a subtle and soothing contrast, while Potoler Dolma, stuffed pointed gourd, offers a taste of Bengal’s ingenious culinary craftsmanship.

A Sweet Finale

No Bengali meal is complete without the signature sweets that the region is famous for. The dessert menu at "Bangla Swad" is a showcase of Bengal's mastery in the art of confectionery. Delight in the melt-in-your-mouth Gur Sandesh, the creamy and luscious Bhapa Doi, or the classic Mishti Doi. For those with an even sweeter tooth, the soft and spongy Rasogulla and the rich Kheer Kadam promise a perfect end to your meal.

Experience the Essence of Bengal

"Bengal Swad" is more than just a meal – it’s an immersive experience that reflects the history, culture, and passion that define Bengali cuisine. Each dish tells its own story, whether it’s of the rural heartlands, where time-honored recipes have been preserved, or of the innovation that has brought these traditions to the contemporary dining table.

Tribes Coffee Opens First Flagship Café in Bengaluru, Showcasing India’s Tribal Coffee Heritage

Tribes Coffee Opens First Flagship Café in Bengaluru, Showcasing India’s Tribal Coffee Heritage

 Bengaluru’s coffee scene just got a soulful upgrade. Tribes Coffee has officially opened its first flagship café in HSR Layout, introducing a concept that blends wild-grown tribal beans, curated global eats, and a strong social mission.

Founded on the idea of celebrating India’s indigenous communities, Tribes Coffee is the country’s first and only terroir-based coffee brand, offering brews that carry the essence of forests, mineral-rich soils, and tribal heritage. Each cup tells a story — rooted in generations of tradition and grown in harmony with nature.

To mark the opening, four tribal women from Nimmagedda, Andhra Pradesh — Seedarapu Gangamma, Buridi Asha Latha, Buridi Munisha, and Addakatla Gennu — were invited as chief guests. Honoured by the Prime Minister in 2022 for their work in sustainable tribal farming, these women represent the heart and soul behind the beans.

“With Tribes Coffee, we’re not just serving coffee — we’re offering a taste of untold stories,” shared Kiran Nerlige Gowda, Founder of Tribes Coffee. “This café is a tribute to the tribal women and communities who’ve nurtured India’s most distinct coffee in remote forests, often without recognition. We’re here to change that.”

At the core of the brand is a strong commitment to uplift tribal communities. Beans are procured directly from growers, ensuring fair pricing and authenticity. Moreover, 10% of annual profits are reinvested into these communities for education, healthcare, and cultural preservation.

“Urban health through tribal wealth is our mantra,” Gowda added. “Each cup contributes to their dignity, their joy, and their future. That’s our ultimate brew.”

The café spans 1,400 sq. ft., designed to reflect tribal aesthetics — with clay-toned walls, curved layouts, hand-painted murals, and boulder-inspired furniture. The space is both warm and artistic, echoing the spirit of tribal life and inviting guests into a sensory journey from bean to brew.

The menu features signature coffees from regions like Nimmagedda, Koraput, Araku Valley, Similiguda, Paderu, and Daringbadi, along with global dishes curated to complement the coffee without overpowering its distinct flavours.

Must-Try Coffee: Natural Embedded Flavoured Coffee
Must-Try Food: Mushroom & Truffle Zero Flour Pizza, Quinoa & Sweet Potato Veg Burger, Cold Egg Sandwich

Location: Tribes Coffee, 23rd Main, 22nd Cross Rd, HSR Layout, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560102
Opening Hours: 9 AM to 10.30 PM
