Indulge in the Vasant Ritu Khasa this season at Royal Vega, ITC Royal Bengal. The Vasant Ritu Khasa celebrates spring produce from across the country, showcasing seasonal vegetarian flavors.

Royal Vega, nestled within the iconic ITC Royal Bengal, Kolkata, is the first restaurant in the state to be awarded the Sattvik Certification by the Sattvik Council of India. The restaurant continues to abide by principles of purity and sustainability in its offerings. The Sattvik Verification Label certifies that Royal Vega’s vegetarian cuisine is crafted with 100% vegetarian ingredients and has been prepared by the highest food safety regulations, allowing guests to indulge in a healthy and delicious full-course vegetarian meal without concern.

Drawing inspiration from the royal kitchens of India, Royal Vega offers a thoughtfully curated menu rooted in the principles of Ayurveda—the ancient science of life and holistic well-being. The restaurant’s offerings are aligned with Ayurvedic philosophy and a holistic approach to health, focusing on fresh and seasonal produce that promotes balance and harmony with nature. As a key influence on Indian culinary traditions, the Ayurvedic approach guides the restaurant’s menu, which is tailored to nourish the body by nature’s rhythms. This philosophy is reflected in the seasonal offerings at Royal Vega, where the menu is carefully designed to complement the six seasons (Ritu) of the Indian calendar, each lasting two months.

Vasant Ritu Khasa offers an array of mindfully selected vegetarian dishes that highlight the flavors of the season, including Mewa Paneer (stuffed rolled paneer and premium dry fruits slow-cooked in a gravy of poppy seeds, cashew nuts, and khoya), Kadali Badam Kofta (green bananas and almond marbles simmered in onion and curd gravy, finished with Timur), Shatawari Maarmik (crisp green asparagus tips seasoned with nuts and raisins), and Shahi Phal Sandesh (layered Sandesh), to name a few.
