Kolkata, July 11 (IBNS): The arrival of monsoon starts tickling the Bengali taste buds with tantalising thoughts of devouring Ilish during the rains. Ilish or Hilsa, the national fish of Bangladesh, is extremely popular in India, especially in the states of West Bengal, Orissa, Tripura and Assam.

It is defined by its soft aroma and its refreshingly unique taste which lingers on the palate for a long time.

Cherishing this culinary delight, Buzz at The Gateway Kolkata, is all set to give you a gastronomic experience this monsoon at their Hilsa festival, like every year.

In keeping with the monsoons, the kitchen at Buzz is busy creating different preparations of Hilsa for lunch and dinner: Ilisher chop, Ilish diye jhuri posto, Sorshe ilish dhakai style,Kancha aam kasundi diye ilish, Baked boneless hilsa and many more.

For Bengalis, this is definitely one of those occasions that cannot be missed. And for those who have not had a chance to experience the taste of Hilsa yet, this is perhaps the best opportunity.

The Hilsa Festival at Buzz will continue throughout this month. All preparations of Hilsa will be served with steamed rice.

So come and enjoy this monsoon by treating yourself and your family with some lip-smacking Hilsa delicacies at Buzz, The Gateway Kolkata for from July  14, onwards.
