Degustation Menu

Risala | Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur

Dégustation, which is French for a tasting menu is a culinary concept that focuses on the gustatory system by savoring the food with all the senses, appreciating the ingredients and chef’s technical skill and enjoying the food with good company.
The menu offers a sampling of small portions of all of the chef’s signature Indian dishes with unusual creations and pairings in one sitting. A modern Indian fusion offering a gastronomic blast for the palate whilst appreciating the purpose of the protracted dining experience.
Based on the concept of fusion food, the menu offers a range of options for each course which is not just brilliantly appetizing but also a visual treat. It is a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary sophistication that is inspired by Indian provinces and you see the extension of the same in the dishes served. The efficient staff stands on its toes to make you feel at home. Our restaurants are destinations for your wholesome and scrumptious getaway.
This concept has very cleverly kept a few old-time, standard Indian favorites so that you can get something of your taste without disturbing the nouvelle concept of the restaurant. The Indian menu flirts with cuisines from across the world with a splash of the local Marwari cuisine. For example, Sarson Muscovy duck is a nifty take on an old classic. Indian food has been taken to a different dimension with new techniques, innovative presentations, and usage of organic produce and spices. Indian food has been reinvented with unusual creations and pairings thus creating an exclusive gourmet dining experience.
On a similar note, the European degustation menu turns heads with its striking presentations and its usage of unusual ingredients such as Meyer lemons, which is an Asian native, a cross between a regular lemon and Mandarin orange. Time-honored brands such as Molino di Borgio and Valrhona along with traditional powerhouses such as Pommery are being used to tweak and turn the flavors of world-beating ingredients such as New Zealand Lamb Chops and Chilean Sea Bass. Enhancers such as gastrique, coulis etc. are used with an open hand to augment the flavor profile of the tres bon ingredients.
