Join us for a family-style Khasi meal cooked by sisters Daphimanroi and Dakiwanri, celebrating the fresh and unique flavours of Shillong. Khasi food is minimalist, and cooked with an elegant restraint, allowing the true flavours of each ingredient to shine through. The meal will include deeply-beloved ingredients of Khasi cuisine, like black sesame paste and smoked meats, while introducing diners to new flavours and dishes, cooked using seasonal, and sometimes wild ingredients.

To complete the experience, our friends at Hapusa - Himalayan Dry Gin, will be curating gin cocktails reminiscent of the magnificent Himalayas.

Choose from a vegetarian or non-vegetarian meal, and join us at The Freedom Tree flagship store in Mumbai for a culinary journey to the rolling hills of Shillong.

Date: 6 & 7 August 2022
Venue: Freedom Tree Design Studio & Home Store, Mahalakshmi, Mumbai
Time: 7:00 PM
