A Pongal buffet at AYU this Thai Pongal

Often called the “Harvest Festival”, Thai Pongal is celebrated to commemorate the beginning of harvesting crops in the fields. This harvest festival dedicated to the Sun God, is a four-day festival celebrated by one and all. The term ‘Pongal’ in Tamil means ‘to boil’, while ‘Ponga’ translates to ‘overflowing’, thus indicating abundance and prosperity.

Celebrate the festival with Mövenpick Hotel Colombo’s “Pongal lunch buffet” at AYU on Tuesday 15 January. Featuring a range of traditional Pongal dishes and sweet treats for all, Chef Harish Singh Rana will prepare over 80 items for this grand buffet priced at 2,930 nett (12 noon – 3 pm) featuring an array of vegetarian options. A separate meat corner will also be available for any guests who would like meat items.

From vadai with sambhaar and murukku that makes a crackling treat, the Pongal buffet will feature soups, salads, various rice dishes, action stations and Pongal sweetmeats.
