Kathmandu:

Its festival time and some delicious world cuisine are sure to do the rounds around town teasing the taste buds of food lovers. To give a delicious Japanese treat to the food connoisseurs of the city, Executive Chef Narender Singh of Hyatt Regency has introduced a Sushi Festival in the Lobby Lounge of the hotel starting from October 19.

Amongst all the lip-smacking Japanese delights, Sushi certainly stands out as the most popular in terms of taste and elegance. This healthy and delicious mouthful saw its most recent transformation in the 20th century and now appears worldwide ruling the favourite lists of many. “We frequently do such kinds of food promotions in our hotel and this time around Sushi clicked our minds since it’s a light and delicious snack as well as appetiser which has gained immense magnitude in the recent times,” expressed Chef Singh.

As in art, Japanese Sushi continues to grow, change and blossom. The changes are not in form or preparation as much as they are in the ingredients and the atmosphere where it is served. These adventurous and tasty creations can be found in the most elegant of settings in this food festival.

The chefs at Hyatt have prepared some luscious Sushi in vegetarian and non-vegetarian forms. The non-vegetarian Sushi is essentially prepared by Sashimi (fresh sliced raw fish) or seafood combined with rice wrapped in seaweed (noori). The vegetarian Sushi can be prepared using vegetables like beetroot, fresh avocado, cucumber and other vegetables of one’s choice.

Since Sushi is more about how it is presented, the Chefs have done a wonderful job in decorating these delights with pickle ginger, crabsticks, roasted eels and shrimps. So give in and enjoy an authentic Japanese edible art form at the Hyatt Regency.
