Pune, May 08th, 2025: This summer, Radisson Blu Pune Hinjawadi welcomes guests to indulge in the culinary enchantment of mangoes with its much-awaited seasonal showcase, Mango Mélange. Running from May 1st to June 30th, 2025, the hotel transforms into a celebration of India’s most revered tropical treasure—the King of Fruits—offering a sensorial mango-forward experience across all its signature dining venues. Whether it’s Café Blu – All Day Dining, the breezy rooftop 5ive The Sky Bar, the contemporary Dragonfly: Asian Kitchen & Bar, or in-room dining, every corner promises a gastronomic revelation steeped in mango indulgence.
Drawing inspiration from golden-hued memories and India’s rich mosaic of mango varietals, Mango Mélange is both a nostalgic homage and an inventive expression of the fruit’s global culinary reverence. The menu weaves time-honoured preparations with modern interpretations, transforming each dish and drink into a vibrant tribute to tropical brilliance.
Sharing his thoughts, Pawan Kumar, Executive Chef of Radisson Blu Pune Hinjawadi said, “Mango Mélange is our ode to the sublime mango heritage of India—honouring distinguished cultivars like Alphonso, Devgad, Langra, and Banganapalli. Our menu is envisioned as a palate-evoking tapestry of tradition and contemporary exploration. From cherished regional recipes to bold reinterpretations, every creation aims to elevate the mango in its most resplendent expression. It is a seasonal narrative designed to stir emotion, awaken memory, and ignite the senses.”
The specially crafted menu offers a diverse selection of desserts and beverages, blending regional soul with cosmopolitan sensibility. Guests can enjoy artisanal cocktails such as the Alphonso Highball, Golden Orchard Daiquiri, and the fiery Mango Chilli Caprioska. Non-alcoholic enthusiasts can savour refined sips like the Sunset Colada, Mangifera Infusion, or the nostalgia-laced Raw Mango Elixir, crafted with unripe mango, chaat masala, and delicate spices. The Mango Mary redefines the classic with a bold tropical crescendo.
The dessert line-up features indulgences that are both innovative and evocative. The Alphonso Cheesecake offers a luscious journey into seasonal opulence, while the Mango Tres Leches reimagines a Latin delight with coastal flair. Regional pride is reflected in the Devgad Aam Ras Poori, Mango Pista Rasmalai, and Ratnagiri Shrikhand. International favourites like Thai Mango Sticky Rice and the velvety Mango Panna Cotta complete the menu with grace and finesse.
Anchoring the spirit of Mango Mélange is a celebration of cultural harmony—where culinary heritage intersects with global innovation. Dishes such as the Alphonso Cheesecake, Mango Tres Leches, and Mango Panna Cotta reveal mango’s boundless versatility. The inclusion of Thai Mango Sticky Rice exemplifies the fruit’s universal culinary status—transcending borders, cuisines, and traditions.
