USHER IN THE AUSPICIOUS MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL AT DASHANZI

The progressive modern Asian cuisine restaurant at the JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu presents an exquisite array of JW Mooncakes along with an experience of elevated flavors of the Orient with their new menu.

Mumbai, September, 2021- Southeast Asian countries and communities around the world celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, which marks the end of the autumn harvest and the appearance of the moon at its fullest. It is a time for family reunions, celebration, offering thanks and celebrating prosperity. Dashanzi, the award-winning progressive modern Asian cuisine restaurant at JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu will usher in this auspicious festival with a specially curated menu and traditional Chinese mooncakes. 

Since a significant part of the Mid-Autumn Festival is centered around moon watching, this makes the mooncake an indispensable aspect of the celebration. Steeped in symbolism, mooncakes signify gratitude and togetherness and are traditionally gifted as a token of prosperity to loved ones. The round mooncake is a dense pastry with flavorsome fillings, elaborately decorated, often with patterns depicting the legends of the festival. Delight your tastebuds with flavors such as Red Bean, Matcha & Coconut, Mixed Seeds and Mud Chocolate; these traditional delicacies come in an elegant sustainable wooden casket and are available on a ‘made-to-order basis at JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu. 

As part of the festivities, patrons can also indulge in an all-new bespoke menu inspired by Chef Rohit Chadha’s travels to Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, and Singapore and his many years of experience curating Asian delicacies. Char Sui Tofu, Snails by the Sea, Hamachi Carpaccio, Ginger Sea Bass, Huaiyang Chinese Pastry, and many more delicacies, topped off with traditional mooncake and green tea are on the Mid-Autumn Festival special menu this month.
