Taking place from January 15 to January 29, 2025, this unique event invites food enthusiasts to explore the regal flavors of Hyderabad in the breathtaking coastal setting of Bentota.

The festival is curated by Chef Sanjay Paik, an accomplished culinary expert from Taj Deccan, Hyderabad, with over 25 years of experience in authentic Hyderabadi cuisine. Chef Sanjay, who has represented The Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) at prestigious international food festivals, brings his expertise and passion to this event.

To further elevate the dining experience, the Hyderabadi Food Festival incorporates Sri Lanka’s rich culinary traditions, blending the island’s tropical vibrancy with the aromatic spices of Hyderabad. Set against the stunning backdrop of Bentota’s coastline, the festival offers a dining experience that seamlessly merges Indian grandeur with Sri Lankan warmth.

No celebration of Hyderabadi cuisine is complete without its iconic desserts. Guests can indulge in sweet treats like Double Ka Meetha and Khubani Ka Meetha, which embody the festive spirit of Hyderabad while resonating with Sri Lanka’s love for indulgent desserts.
