I would also like to announce on this occasion of holding our cake mixing that the hotel is going to organise weekend food festivals throughout the month of December."

It is to be noted that 'traditional cake mixing' is believed to be the harbinger of happiness in the Christmas season. Meanwhile, ingredients of a 20 kg cake were mixed with great fervour by all participating. Chef Santosh Nath lead the initiative .

Chef Santosh Nath said, "The cake mixing event saw mixing of glazed cherries, walnuts, almonds, cashew nuts, dates, dry and black raisins, apricot, dried figs, orange peels, prunes and cranberries along with a variety of liquor to complete the ceremony.

An important aim during the cake mixing was also to give a message to not let one's guard down during the Xmas festivities so that COVID stays away. The idea is to spread joy & happiness during the Christmas season and not COVID."
