Sayaji Kolhapur celebrated the onset of the holiday season with a vibrant Cake Mixing Ceremony on October 25, 2024. This lively event brought together guests, dignitaries, and local community members to celebrate through a timeless tradition, blending rich flavors and spreading festive joy.
The Cake Mixing Ceremony, a tradition steeped in history, typically marks the start of Christmas and New Year celebrations. More than just a fun ritual, it symbolizes love, unity, and the spirit of togetherness. Friends, family, and community members gather to mix a variety of ingredients—flour, dried fruits, crunchy nuts, aromatic spices, and more—each representing a blend of cultures and the harmony of the festive season.
Participants enthusiastically took part under the guidance of skilled chefs, who shared culinary insights and stories, adding warmth to the ceremony and creating a shared sense of celebration and joy.
"We are delighted to host this Cake Mixing Ceremony, a beautiful way to kick off the festive season," said Mr. Mukesh Kumar Rakshit, General Manager of Sayaji Hotel Kolhapur. "This event not only highlights our rich culinary heritage but also brings people together, fostering a sense of community and shared joy."
Adding to the festive atmosphere were delicious refreshments, allowing guests to mingle, learn about the cake mixing tradition, and enjoy being part of this beloved event.
As the holiday season approaches, Sayaji Kolhapur looks forward to sharing the results of this joyous cake mixing tradition with patrons, celebrating the rich flavors and festive spirit that make this time of year truly special.

Lyla Bombay marks its second anniversary with the launch of Candlelight Singalong Wednesdays, a weekly experience designed to transform midweek evenings into something more intimate and engaging.
Set in the heart of Bandra Kurla Complex, the concept reimagines the traditional dining experience by blending live music, shared moments, and ambient dining. As the evening unfolds, the space transitions into a candlelit setting where guests become part of the experience, blurring the lines between performer and audience.
Rather than a structured concert or karaoke format, the evening is designed to feel effortless and organic. Familiar songs, a relaxed atmosphere, and a sense of collective participation create an experience that is both lively and personal.
Complementing the ambiance is a curated menu featuring signature dishes such as Prawns Moilee, truffle mushroom risotto, and stuffed ravioli, offering a balance of comfort and indulgence. The culinary offering aligns with the overall experience—refined yet approachable.
The introduction of Candlelight Singalong Wednesdays is part of Lyla’s broader anniversary celebrations, which also include a refreshed globally inspired all-day menu and an expanded lineup of weekend experiences. Together, these initiatives reflect the brand’s evolving approach to experiential dining.
By combining music, mood, and cuisine, Lyla Bombay continues to position itself as a destination for immersive social experiences, where dining goes beyond the plate to create memorable, shared moments
