PHURR Gives Hapus Mangoes a Spicy, Sassy Summer Makeover — And Honestly, We’re Obsessed

This summer, PHURR is taking Maharashtra’s beloved Hapus mango and throwing it straight into the fire — quite literally. The Bengaluru hotspot has unveiled a limited-edition vegetarian menu that explores the wildly unexpected side of Alphonso mangoes, proving once and for all that this iconic summer fruit can do far more than sit pretty inside desserts. Think smoke, spice, chilli heat, umami, crunch, and creamy coconut curries — all wrapped in a playful, flavour-forward experience that feels anything but ordinary.

CEYLON FINDS A HOME AT 1882, DOUBLETREE BY HILTON BENGALURU

Ceylon arrived at 1882, DoubleTree by Hilton Bengaluru Whitefield, and it arrived in full colour. TheGlitz walked in just three days before the Sri Lankan Food Festival wrapped up, and what unfolded over the course of that evening was food that felt less like a festival and more like a memory someone was generously sharing.

A Sri Lankan Table at Maize and Malt

A Sri Lankan table doesn't arrive quietly. At Maize and Malt, it arrived with Priya Bala behind it and that changed everything.

Flavours of Goa at Grand Mercure: When Authenticity Lands in Bengaluru

Grand Mercure's Flavours of Goa festival doesn't pretend to be Goa. It simply is. Chef Ashlyn Da Cruz brought her ancestral kitchen, her grinding stone, and generations of coastal wisdom to La Utsav. From Ros Omelette to charred Kingfish, this isn't approximation. It's the real thing. With three days left until February 22nd, hesitation costs you.

Winter Menus Worth the Trip

Winter menus are everywhere right now. Some have to do with harvest festivals, others just leaning into the cold and what people want to eat. Pongal, Makar Sankranti, Lohri: different names, different dishes, same magic. Whether you're home or far from it, there's something close enough. TheGlitz team found the ones that matter. Festive pop-ups, exclusive specials running through the week or the month. Some remind you of home. Some show you what you've been missing. January's short.
