Monkey Bar, ever a connoisseur of unconventional culinary delights, unveils its latest masterpiece, “Tales of India.” A menu that doesn’t just satisfy your taste buds but takes them on an evocative journey through the diverse flavors of India. With the innovative magic of Group Head Mixologist, Harish Chhimwal, and the culinary artistry of Corporate Chef, Irfan Pabaney, and Chef Sumit Choudhary, the “Tales of India” is not a meal but an experience, a story, a celebration of the subcontinent’s culinary treasure.
Cocktails with a Twist of Tradition
Each cocktail is a creative explosion of traditional and contemporary, where Indian classics meet innovative mixology. Imagine sipping on a ‘Pom Pom Cola’ with the rich, beloved flavor of Old Monk rum, tickled with pomegranate cordial and a zest of lime, or the ‘Rum Cha,’ a nostalgic nod to the iconic cutting chai, swirled with the warmth of homemade masala tea cordial and the bold embrace of rum.
A Symphony of Flavours
Each drink is a narrative, each sip, a paragraph of a tale that unwinds the rich tapestry of Indian flavors. The menu, a brainchild of exceptional innovation, brings together Parsi cola and masala tea, murabba and panipuri, in a dance of flavors so harmonious, it's poetic. Every ingredient, sourced from the varied terrains of India, adds a stroke of authenticity, painting a canvas that’s as Indian as the warm, golden embrace of the afternoon sun.
A Culinary Canvas
The culinary offerings, a meticulous orchestration by Chefs Pabaney and Choudhary, are not just meals but palettes where Indian ingredients waltz in flawless synchrony. From the tangy revelation of the Baked Mirchi Salan to the homey embrace of the Mix Veggie Cutlet and the fiery melody of the Shroom Tikka, every dish is a sonnet, a lyrical expression of the regional flavors of India.
Dine in the Lap of Luxury
Yet, the elegance isn’t confined to the plate. The experience is heightened by the aesthetic allure of the cocktails served in earthen pots, crafted meticulously by local artisans. Every sip, a harmonious blend of taste and visual delight. Every bite, a tribute to the traditional and contemporary, the local and the global, the classic and the innovative.
A Journey Across Regions
Each dish, from the Kerala Roast Chicken's tender embrace to the fiery revelation of the Shroom Tikka, is a journey. The menu takes you through the valleys of Uttar Pradesh with the Chicken Nihari Kulcha, to the spicy terrains of Tamil Nadu with the Chettinad Mutton Seekh. Desserts like Gur Kulcha don’t just satisfy your sweet tooth but transport you to the nutty, sweet landscapes of North India.
The Monkey Bar Experience
With outlets in New Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, and Mumbai, each visit to Monkey Bar is not just a dining experience but a sensory journey.

With a seating capacity of approximately 400 guests, Boston can accommodate casual outings, group gatherings, birthdays, corporate events and private celebrations. DJ performances, live music and specially curated events will also form part of its entertainment programme.
The food menu brings together contemporary global cuisine, comfort food and sharing plates suited to a pub setting. It features Asian and Chinese favourites, Korean-inspired dishes, Indian appetisers, Italian-style pizzas and Continental selections. Some of the dishes that have received positive customer feedback include Korean Chicken Bao, Classic Chicken Tikka, Chilli Garlic Chicken Noodles, Wild Mushroom Dumplings and Fish Fingers.

Sharing the idea behind the concept, the founding team said, "Boston was envisioned as more than just another place to eat, drink and party. We wanted to create a destination where every visit tells a different story. With five floors, each offering its own character and experience, Boston brings together the charm of a bygone era and the excitement of contemporary nightlife. Our vision is to build a space where people connect, celebrate and create memories. Ultimately, we want Boston to be remembered not just for the place it is, but for how it makes people feel."
With its five-floor layout, varied dining options and entertainment spaces, Boston aims to establish itself as a social and nightlife destination in Bengaluru's RR Nagar.

Om Sweets has introduced its premium retail concept on Golf Course Road, Gurugram, expanding its presence in one of the city's prominent commercial and residential destinations. The new outlet brings together the brand's traditional Indian mithai, savouries and vegetarian food offerings in a contemporary setting.
The outlet caters to customers looking for everyday dining, festive purchases and gifting options under one roof. Beyond its range of Indian sweets, Om Sweets offers savoury preparations and a wider selection of vegetarian food, making it a destination for different occasions and dining preferences.
The new retail format reflects the changing expectations of urban consumers, who increasingly look for quality, variety and thoughtful presentation alongside familiar flavours. While the outlet offers a contemporary environment, it retains the traditional appeal that has shaped the brand's identity. Its Golf Course Road location also improves accessibility for residents and professionals in the surrounding neighbourhood.
Om Sweets' journey began in the early 1940s, when Shri Hari Chand Kathuria Ji started a family sweets business. Following Partition, the family rebuilt its business in India. In 1960, Shri Om Prakash Kathuria Ji established a shop in Arjun Nagar, Gurugram, laying the foundation for the brand's growth. Over the years, the business expanded its offerings and customer base, developing into an established food brand with a presence across Gurugram, Faridabad, Delhi, Sohna and Palwal.
Commenting on the launch, a spokesperson for Om Sweets said, “At Om Sweets, our focus has always been on serving food that people can associate with their everyday lives and special occasions. Mithai remains an important part of what we do, but our offering today extends to savouries and a wider range of vegetarian food. With our Golf Course Road outlet, we are bringing this variety to customers in a contemporary setting, making it convenient for them to explore our offerings for different occasions while continuing to enjoy the flavours they know and trust.”
With this launch, Om Sweets continues to expand its retail presence and introduce its broader food portfolio to a new customer base. The outlet brings together the brand's established culinary offerings and evolving retail format, catering to everyday meals, celebrations and gifting occasions.

Wendy's India has introduced five globally inspired burger flavours under its new campaign, 'The Great Burger Scam', with prices starting at ₹59. Launched in November 2026, the range brings international flavour profiles to the value burger segment, offering both vegetarian and chicken options priced between ₹59 and ₹99.
The new selection features five flavours: Chipotle, Chimichurri, Korean, Teriyaki and Makhani. The range combines smoky, herbaceous, sweet and savoury profiles with a familiar Indian-inspired option, giving customers a wider choice beyond conventional value burger offerings.
The campaign plays on the idea of a 'scam' by presenting a range of distinct flavour experiences at prices that may seem unexpectedly affordable. Wendy's positions the launch as an effort to challenge the perception that lower-priced burgers need to offer limited variety.
Commenting on the campaign, Mohit Mahajan, AVP – Marketing, Rebel Foods, said, "Consumers today are looking for more than just a good deal. They want variety, exciting flavours and experiences that feel worth trying. With 'The Great Burger Scam', we wanted to turn the usual value burger narrative on its head. Five distinct flavours, globally inspired choices and prices starting at ₹59, it almost sounds too good to be true! Through this campaign, we want to make flavour exploration accessible to everyone while bringing a little fun and surprise to the everyday burger experience."
The launch targets consumers, particularly Gen Z and Millennials, who are interested in exploring new food options while keeping spending in check. By bringing flavours associated with different cuisines into an affordable format, Wendy's aims to make experimentation more accessible to everyday burger customers.
The campaign also adds to the brand's efforts to differentiate its offering in India's competitive quick-service restaurant market, where value pricing and menu variety remain important considerations for consumers.
The new burgers are available at Wendy's India dine-in restaurants and through online delivery platforms.
