The Last Hilsa of the Monsoon – A Farewell to the Queen of Rivers, Kolkata

About this place

As the monsoon begins to retreat and the Hilsa season draws to a close, we invite you to one final celebration of Bengal's most cherished fish. This specially curated lunch is a tribute to the many flavours and textures of ilish, showcasing recipes that honour the tradition of using every part of the fish with care and respect. From the comforting *Ilish Maacher Bhaja with fragrant mustard oil, the rustic **Lyajar Bhorta, and the delicate **Boneless Matha Chochori, to the soulful **Begun Diye Ilish Macher Jhol* and the iconic *Shorshe Posto Diye Ilisher Jhal, every course reflects the timeless culinary heritage of Bengal. The meal concludes with the sweet tang of **Anarosher Chutney* and crisp papad, bringing this seasonal feast to a perfect close. Join us at That Red House, in association with Immersive Trails, for a memorable afternoon as we bid farewell to this year's Hilsa season—until the rivers welcome the silver harvest once again.
