Hilton Mumbai International Airport is turning November into a passport-stamped flavour vacation — no visas, no luggage, just a nine-day culinary journey that promises to whisk you from Tokyo to Lima to Hanoi in a single bite. With “The Nikkei Table by Chef Vaishag,” the hotel unveils a dining experience that’s equal parts artistry, emotion, and pure edible wanderlust.

Running 21st to 30th November, this limited-edition tasting menu is designed for those who like their food with a side of adventure and their dinners sprinkled generously with stories.

As Sumita Chakraborty, Founder & Editor-in-Chief, TheGlitz, puts it — this nine-day flavour fête is nothing short of gastro-nomical wizardry, the kind of feast that doesn’t just tantalise the taste buds… its delicious menu flavours your soul.

Hilton Mumbai International Airport’s tryst with The Nikkei Table by Chef Vaishag

At its core, The Nikkei Table is not just an impeccably picked menu, it’s a delicious memoir. Chef Vaishag, who has sharpened his skills across continents and cuisines, brings together the quiet precision of Japanese cooking, the bold flair of Peruvian flavours, and the aromatic charisma of Vietnamese cuisine into a plate that celebrates contrast while maintaining a seamless harmony. Think of it as three culinary cultures dancing the tango, graceful, fiery, and irresistibly in sync.

What Is The Nikkei Table?

“Nikkei cuisine is a story of cultures coming together,” Chef Vaishag says, and that sentiment echoes through every dish. Nothing here is accidental… not the plating, not the textures, not the whispers of unexpected ingredients. This menu is his culinary diary, filled with chapters inspired by his early love for Japanese technique, his fascination with Peru’s fearless flavours, and his growing affection for Vietnam’s fragrant, soulful cooking.

Signature Dishes

…And because geniuses especially chef geniuses never rest, Chef Vaishag blends signature favourites from his previous menus with brand-new creations that are debuts just waiting for applause. Each dish arrives with intention — attention to detail, an eye for design, and a confident use of flavour that lets every ingredient shine rather than shout.

Picture Perfect

Picture this: delicate Japanese cuts that melt like poetry, saucy Peruvian sparks that hit with attitude, and Vietnamese herbs that freshen the palate like a tropical breeze. The result? A tasting menu that feels like a well-curated culinary playlist — soothing in moments, thrilling in others, and thoroughly unforgettable throughout.

TheGlitz says: This is dinner with range:
• A little subtle.
• A little bold.
• A little aromatic.
• A lot exquisite.

So if your idea of a perfect night includes refined plating, sensorial surprises, and dishes that come with both balance and bravado, The Nikkei Table might just be your new November affair.
