Holi is celebrated across the Indian subcontinent with great enthusiasm, fervour, and splashes of colours. One of the significant aspects of Holi is the exchange of delicacies and dishes, which symbolise the spirit of togetherness and unity. Despite the diversity of regional delicacies and dishes, people come together during Holi to celebrate and often step out of the house to indulge in festive special feasts at restaurants and hotels. This is what makes the festival so unique and significant. Unique dishes are prepared during this time, ranging from appetisers to desserts. Like every Indian festival, Holi is incomplete without a feast, and if you are planning to visit some places and dig into yummy, tasty dishes, here are a few suggestions. Happy Holi!
Rang Barse & Rang-E-Casbah, The Westin Mindspace Hyderabad
Rang Barse, a celebratory brunch at Seasonal Tastes kicks off the festivities with gujiya and thandai, busy chaat counters, local specialities, international favourites, and a hearty dessert spread, all accompanied by loud music and tasteful, festive accents. Rang-e-Casbah at Casbah takes over with a distinct ambiance as the day fades into the night. The room transforms into a luminous, lantern-lit paradise where Middle Eastern style blends with Indian hospitality. Here, the cocktails come with a touch of drama, music that gradually increases the intensity, and dishes piled with strong spices and smokey flavours. It's an evening where flavours linger, conversations flow, and the spirit of Holi 2026 feels slightly more decadent, little more electric!
