SHANGRI-LA Kuala Lumpur invites guests to experience an opulent Deepavali celebration with an array of traditional Indian delicacies, curated to reflect the vibrant essence of this festival. Lemon Garden is serving a sumptuous Deepavali buffet from Oct 28 to 31. It features an exquisite selection of traditional appetisers, tandoori delights, signature mains and sweet treats.

Begin the meal with Samosa Chaat, a deep-fried spiced potato and peas samosa served with mint yoghurt, refreshing Aloo Chana Salad, a blend of potato and chickpeas marinated with masala spices or Dhai Puri, crispy puff filled with flavoured yoghurt, mint and tamarind chutney. For tandoori lovers, indulge in succulent options such as the Murgh Tangdi Kebab, marinated chicken drumsticks with a spice blend, garlic ginger paste and mustard oil, or the tender Prawn Shashlik marinated with yoghurt and spices. These will be served alongside freshly baked tandoori breads including Butter Onion Kulcha and Garlic Naan.

The highlight of the buffet is the Lamb Shank Dum Biryani, where aromatic saffron-flavoured basmati rice is layered with tender braised lamb shank. Complete your meal with an array of poppadoms and traditional chutneys, including Mango Chutney and Coconut Chutney. The buffet will feature traditional desserts such as rasmalai, a delicate cottage cheese dumpling served in thickened cardamom milk, and the much-loved jalebi, a crispy, deep-fried sweet made with yoghurt, flour and cardamom powder.
