Sofitel Mexican Food Festival All I have ever known about Mexican food is Nachos, Tacos, and quesadillas until I happened to visit ‘The Mexican Food Festival’ at the Sofitel Hotel – BKC. The Pondicherry Cafe wore a fascinating look, there were waiters serving the tables wearing a Sombrero and Poncho and large cutouts of Mexican dancers adorned the reception of the cafe.

Trident Hotel BKC – Food Trails
Trident Hotel BKC Food Trails Foods of India are better known for its masalas – spiciness. Throughout India, be it North or South, spices are used generously in food preparations. But Coastal states make great use of these spices, seafood, and coconut and serve their dishes with a sense of great pride.
