ITC Ratnadipa, Colombo, has launched Ruhaniyat, a limited-time Indian heritage dining experience that celebrates the rich traditions, regional diversity, and timeless flavours of Indian cuisine. Running from 10 July to 16 August at Level 2 of the hotel, the exclusive pop-up restaurant offers guests an authentic culinary journey through India's most treasured recipes, served through a carefully curated à la carte menu for both lunch and dinner.
Inspired by the word 'ruh', meaning 'soul', Ruhaniyat reflects the belief that Indian cuisine is far more than food—it is a celebration of culture, family, generosity, and togetherness. Every dish tells a story, with recipes handed down through generations and meals designed to create lasting memories around the dining table.
The menu showcases a wide selection of India's most celebrated regional dishes, featuring flavourful kebabs, vibrant chaats, aromatic biryanis, slow-cooked curries, handcrafted Indian breads, vegetarian delicacies, and traditional Meethai desserts.
Guests can indulge in signature favourites such as Murgh Tandoori, Murgh Malai Kebab, Seekh Kebab, Dilli Chole Samosa Chaat, Dal Bukhara, Paneer Makhani, Dum Murgh Biryani, Dum Gosht Biryani, and Jhinga Biryani, complemented by a variety of authentic accompaniments and classic Indian desserts inspired by the country's diverse culinary regions.
Designed to honour India's rich gastronomic heritage, Ruhaniyat combines beloved classics with lesser-known regional specialties, encouraging diners to explore new flavours while rediscovering traditional favourites in an elegant dining setting.
The dining experience is available daily from 10 July to 16 August, with lunch served from 12.00 p.m. to 3.00 p.m. and dinner from 6.30 p.m. to 11.00 p.m. Guests are invited to enjoy the menu at their own pace, embracing the warmth, hospitality, and soulful traditions that have defined Indian cuisine for generations.
With Ruhaniyat, ITC Ratnadipa offers food lovers in Colombo a unique opportunity to experience the authentic essence of India's culinary legacy through an unforgettable heritage dining experience available for a limited time.
