A Memorable Birthday Dinner at Dum Pukht, ITC SonarWe recently celebrated our daughter’s birthday at Dum Pukht, ITC Sonar, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we entered, the ambience set the tone for a refined and intimate evening. The rich décor, gentle lighting, and soothing traditional music instantly made us feel like we were in for something special.The evening was made even more memorable by the impeccable service, especially from Mr. Debashis, who took wonderful care of us throughout. From suggesting the right dishes for our group to ensuring a seamless birthday celebration, his warmth and professionalism truly enhanced the experience.We began our meal with a couple of appetizers—Murgh Chandi Tikka and a Fish Kebab. The Murgh Chandi Tikka was beautifully tender, subtly spiced, and coated in a delicate silver leaf that gave it a regal finish. It melted in the mouth, leaving a rich smoky flavour with each bite. The fish kebab, equally impressive, was moist, flaky, and expertly marinated with gentle spices that didn’t overpower the freshness of the fish.For the mains, we indulged in the legendary Dum Pukht Mutton Biryani and the Murgh Handi Korma. The biryani was aromatic and rich, with each grain of rice perfectly cooked and infused with the essence of saffron, ghee, and the slow-cooked mutton. The meat was succulent and fell off the bone with ease, a testament to the slow dum-style cooking. The Murgh Handi Korma was a creamy, fragrant curry with tender chicken pieces bathed in a velvety sauce that balanced richness with just the right hint of spices. Paired with soft tandoori rotis and a side of raita, this made for a wonderfully satisfying main course.As it was a birthday, the team surprised us with a beautifully presented cake from the hotel, which was brought out at just the right moment. It was a warm and thoughtful gesture coordinated seamlessly by Mr. Debashis. The staff gathered with smiles, and the candlelit moment made our daughter feel truly celebrated. It wasn’t just service—it was heartfelt hospitality.In terms of pricing, Dum Pukht is undoubtedly premium, but the quality of food, ambiance, and service made it well worth it for a special occasion. Every element—from the careful pacing of courses to the elegant presentation and personalised attention—felt intentional and refined.Overall, it was a perfect place for a family celebration. Dum Pukht combines culinary excellence with old-world charm, and with hosts like Mr. Debashis, it becomes more than just dinner—it becomes a memory.
