Nawabi Bhoj: A Culinary Celebration of Murshidabad at Novotel Mumbai International Airport


Mumbai, July 5th: The Food Exchange at Novotel Mumbai International Airport is set to host a remarkable culinary event from July 5th to 13th, 2024, presenting the rich and diverse flavors of Murshidabad. This unique food pop-up, aptly named "Nawabi Bhoj: Taste of Murshidabad," promises an exquisite journey through the cuisine of this historically rich region. The event is a collaboration between Chef Pin and the renowned Chef Ananya Banerjee, a globetrotting chef whose expertise and passion for promoting lesser-known regional cuisines have garnered her significant acclaim.


Chef Ananya Banerjee is a multifaceted talent—an accomplished lawyer, painter, social influencer, and above all, a culinary expert. Her deep-rooted passion for culinary arts has led her to explore and promote the rich and diverse cuisines of various regions, with a particular focus on Murshidabad. Her journey to Murshidabad involved extensive research and learning from the descendants of the Nawabs and local culinary experts, enabling her to bring forth an authentic representation of this cuisine. Her dedication and expertise ensure that each dish tells a story of cultural confluence and historical significance.



At the heart of the Nawabi Bhoj gathering the content was Rajveer Singh, a familiar face in the influencers world. His interaction with the Creative Chef Ananya Banerjee, Gorgeous Rachita Sood (GM Novotel), the culinary experts, esteemed influencers, and enterprising entrepreneurs added warmth and familiarity to the event as they shared food, laughs and stories.

The genuine connections formed and the shared laughter and joy became the heart and soul of the Nawabi Bhoj Dinner Buffet


Murshidabad cuisine is a delightful blend of Persian, Mughal, and Bengali culinary traditions. The Nawabs brought Persian and Mughal culinary techniques and ingredients, which have significantly influenced the local cuisine.
