| Goodbye burgers and hello Shepard pie with mushroom jus and spinach corn and cheddar lasagna and chicken Caesar salad.
These are just some of the American dishes on offer at the American food festival at Kolkata's Sonar Bangla hotel that will transport you to the US for a while.
''The influence of Italian, Pan Asian, Chinese, Indian. So you see all that in American cuisine. I think American cuisine is a great melting pot of great chef's creativity,'' said Ranvir Bhandari, General Manager, Sonar Bangla.
''There is lots more I want Kolkata to know about America. American food is not just fried chicken. Of course Kentucky Fried Chicken is one part of it. There are also different kinds of rices, like Jambalaya, Creole rice, then there is a rice on corn,'' said Ramesh Javvaji, Executive Chef.
And no, the food is not all bland. There is a hint of cinnamon, fennel and star anise to spice up the delicious spread. And for those with a sweet tooth, there are those tongue tickling desserts like the Mango Mascarpone Cheesecake and Californian carrot cake.
''They are bringing a full range of American food, things that you can call American. Because certainly there are lots of different varieties of food in the United States,'' said Henry Jardine, Consul General, US Consulate.
The way to any heart is through the stomach and the American food festival promises to conquer many.
