Deepavali (6 November), also known as the Festival of Light celebrates the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. It is also the time of year where we stuff ourselves with lip-smacking, rich, and decadent Indian food like the ones below.

Set in the quieter side of Orchard Road, the elegantly restored colonial bungalow makes a great venue for an intimate dinner gathering with close relatives.

The Chargrilled Laksa Flavoured Chicken Kebab and Coorg Mangalorean Fish Curry are a 10 out of 10! Remember to take home the special Mithai gift boxes for your friends and family!
