India, June 21 -- Explore a bold interplay of flavours and intricate textures that celebrate the depth of South India's culinary heritage at Avartana, at ITC Maurya, where every dish tells a story and every bite is a revelation. Choose from five immersive, guided degustation menus - Anika, Bela, Jiaa, Maya and Tara - each designed to awaken curiosity and reimagine your culinary canvas course by course. From a delicate tempering of bottle gourd balanced with the punch of plum chutney to chicken slow-cooked in coriander curry paired with pillowy mini appams, every dish is a masterclass in contrasts. The Lamb Brain Fritter surprises with its delicate layering, while the Crab Claw - crisp outside, tender inside - is a coastal indulgence that lingers on the palate. End with the ethereal fennel panna cotta, delicately aromatic and crowned with golden angel hair caramel. Complementing the culinary journey is Avishka, a menu of artisanal concoctions inspired by the region's rich history and spices - merging tradition with modern mixology. In a thoughtful nod to South India, interiors are anchored in geometry and heritage: banana leaves accentuated with gold brass motifs elevate the experience, uniting sustainability with style.
