The vibrant culinary heritage of Kerala is making its way to Bengaluru as Courtyard by Marriott Bengaluru Hebbal presents The Fort Kochi Fiesta at The Hebbal Cafe. Running from 27 to 30 August 2026, the food festival celebrates the distinctive flavours, traditions and coastal character of Fort Kochi through an elaborate spread curated by Chef Priya Mary Antony.

The buffet features a generous selection of regional favourites, from flaky Malabar parottas and freshly prepared appams to comforting stews and aromatic seafood curries.

Adding to the experience are interactive live cooking stations, where chefs prepare regional delicacies fresh for guests. The menu also features signature Kerala-inspired desserts and refreshing local beverages, offering a fitting finish to the coastal feast.
