To experience the true Kashmiri essence of life, Taftoon Bar & Kitchen brings you Daawat-E-Kashmir commencing on March 15, and this is one for the calendars.
“Kashmir, the crown jewel of our country is a treasure trove of flavours and cooking techniques waiting to be experienced. At the center of its culinary pride is the Kashmiri Wazwan. Our expert Kashmiri Wazas are ready to take you on a sensorial journey as they cook and plate these authentic delicacies from the northern state for you.” states Pankaj Gupta, Founder of Taftoon.
