Sampled the all new Feel Good Menu from ITC hotels

Sampled the all new Feel Good Menu from ITC hotels that was launched on World Environment Day. The menu has been designed thoughtfully and you will find a limited set of dishes that are in equal parts healthy and flavoursome. The focus has been on responsible sourcing and is designed to highlight the hotel's Vocal for Local initiative. The menu furthers ITC Hotels’ Responsible Luxury philosophy and pledges to strengthen local produce and “Made in India” artisanal products. This initiative supports local farmers and producers, reduces environmental impact and helps minimize carbon footprint. Thank you @itcgardenia @itcwindsor first six pics credited to @itchotels

ITC Hotels’ Feel-Good Menu will be available as a part of the Gourmet Couch Menu in 8 cities pan India and 12 hotels including - ITC Gardenia and ITC Windsor in Bengaluru.

The many moods of the spotted owlet. A small uncre

The many moods of the spotted owlet. A small uncrested owl with a round head and a short tail. It is grayish-brown overall with white spots above while its underparts are white with brown bars. Note the distinctive white eyebrows and neck-band. Often active at dawn and dusk, it is capable of a variety of high-pitched squeals and whistles. Inhabits all kinds of open habitats but avoids dense forest and wetter regions. (https://ebird.org/species/spoowl1?siteLanguage=en_IN). Also see my video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGC39-JPiDQ&t=55s

Morsel Treats is all about new age progressive veg

Morsel Treats is all about new age progressive vegetarian food that is as tasty as it is visually appealing. The two level restaurant has semi open seating on one level and a terrace on the higher level making it a safe dining space too. Good food is a good mood and a meal here ensures both.
