Kolkata, 22nd February, 2025 – For Bengalis and literature enthusiasts, Africa was synonymous with ‘Chander Pahar’ or ‘Mountain of the Moon’ by novelist Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay through the eyes of Shankar. Shankar’s journey and the stories of Africa from Chander Pahar have always been so fascinating for Dr Kajari Mukherjee and Dr Kalyan Kar, that they ensured to visit the continent, witnessing the beauty of the Dark Land through their own eyes.
The uniqueness and beauty of Africa is so captivating that it reached the city of joy – Kolkata with the launch of ‘Flavours of Africa’, an African themed restaurant that is located in the heart of the city, with its grand opening on February 22nd, 2025. The idea behind this is the saying that food is the easiest way to blend cultures. The aim of this culinary venture is to teleport you to Africa while you are still in Kolkata!
Other than just experiencing African food that combines tangy, spicy, savory, earthy flavors, Calcuttans can also live all the African adventures through a tourism venture that is called as ‘Under the African Sky’.
Speaking on the occasion, the owners of the restaurant commented: “We are extremely delighted to launch our new venture ‘Flavours of Africa’ in Kolkata. This will be the first African restaurant in Kolkata and is certainly going to surprise Calcuttans, giving them an African vibe while sitting in the nostalgic city of Kolkata, blending the cultural heritage, warmth and authenticity of both the places. The launch event will be graced by popular Bengali actor Abir Chatterjee and director Dr. Kamaleshwar Mukherjee.”
Flavours of Africa promises to be an unforgettable dining experience for Calcuttans, introducing the exotic essence and vibe of Africa which is known for its enriching cultural heritage, diversified wildlife, natural resources, in the heart of the city with delectable, unconventional and flavorful African cuisine and dishes, giving a real feel of the ‘Cradle of Humankind’.
All the bongs get ready to live your ‘Chander Pahar’ dream while being here in Kolkata and let everyone experience Africa together!
