Saffron Park Plaza hosted me for their ongoing Amritsari food festival. It was a tale of two cities Punjab and Lahore. Saffron Park Plaza was undoubtedly a wonderful experience for me. The combination of kababs and curries can be really lethal I can see my self eat crazy when its prepared with the right amount of every thing (spices).
The menu features many dishes which are braised, grilled, and slow cooked a typical from these regions food is authentic with the usual dose of butter and cream.
What I absolutely enjoyed from kababs are jhinga kali mirchi, murgh tikkas and murgh mungfali ka tikka, from the mains laacha paratha, Anarkali bazaar de bater, chooza makhani and of course maa ki dhal, for desserts gajar halwa, kulfi and raasmalai.

Shami Kabab: lamb shoulder meat slow cooked in lentils and spices ground and filled with aromatic hung yogurt and pomegranate the patty then pan fried with ghee was so succulent and soft it was almost like eating icecream.

To hum down the spices on our taste buds and help digestion from the bar, the bartender served us his concoctions. A grilled apple, tamarind and honey mocktail and cranberry, peach and mustard cocktail both were good I preferred the grilled apple mocktail..

The Breads followed by curries. Bhati Chowk da Nalli gosht, safed makhan ka chooza makhani, annarkalli bazaar de bater and maah ki dhal are signature dishes from punjab. The nalli(lamb shanks) slow cooked in a onion and rich saffron gravy was superb. what truly tingled my taste buds was the slow cooked mixed lentils and safed makhan chooza it was creamy spiced to perfection and was absolutely heavenly with some butter naans and laacha parathas...
After an elaborate session of curries and kababs, we tasted a saffron murgh biryani. The chicken was tender spiced and dum cooked with long grain basmati rice, An assortment of pickles with biryani was absolutely divine.
I liked the papaya pickle with biryani it was one of a kind tasting session. We finally ended our tasting session with desserts and paan I thoroughly enjoyed the feast...
