TIMELESS BENGALI CUISINE AT AAHELI

As the first rays of sunlight illuminate the bustling streets of Kolkata, a city teeming with life and history, they unveil a vibrant tableau of sights, sounds, and scents that are quintessentially Bengali. Amidst the symphony of honking yellow Ambassador taxis and the animated chatter of locals bargaining with vendors, there's a scent that beckons, a scent that leads you on a journey through the culinary wonders of Bengal.

Follow that irresistible aroma, and you'll find yourself at the doorstep of Aaheli, a culinary oasis nestled within the iconic Peerless Hotel on Jawaharlal Nehru Road. Aaheli has been synonymous with excellence for over three decades, offering diners a taste of Bengal's rich culinary heritage in an ambience steeped in tradition and elegance.

Since its inauguration on May 18, 1993, Aaheli has been a beacon of culinary excellence in Kolkata, drawing diners from far and wide with its commitment to authenticity and innovation. Aaheli has become more than just a restaurant; it's an institution that symbolizes Bengal's culinary prowess and hospitality.
