Weekend food plan: A Tamil pop-up, Eid feasts and the last of summer menus
Waarsa is celebrating Eid with an exclusive Awadhi-style feast. Curated by the legendary chefs Mukhtar Qureshi and Rahul Akerkar, take your pick from a delicious menu that pays homage to heirloom recipes and family-style cooking. There's lots to savour such as Paya Aur Zuban Ka Marag, a flavourful, slow-cooked soup of goat trotters and tongue tempered with warm spices, Dawaat-E-Kebab, a sharing platter of Awadhi kebabs — tabak maas, chaap, boti, seekh, and tikki, and Bombay Butter Bheja that reimagines Mumbai's classic bheja fry. Since no Eid is complete without biryani, Waarsa rounds off the celebrations in style with Zeer Biryan Agli Dus Raan, a whole roasted goat foreleg served on top of fragrant saffron Waarsa, NCPA, MumbaiWhen: 6 June - 13 June
