This monsoon, let the rains carry you into the heart of Bengali nostalgia as Orko’s unveils Ilish Kotha — a month-long homage to the queen of fish, the Hilsa. More than a festival, it’s a love letter to memories simmered in mustard, stories wrapped in banana leaves, and the soulful rhythm of home kitchens.

“For Bengalis, Hilsa is not just a fish — it’s an emotion that connects generations. With Ilish Kotha, we wanted to capture that sentiment on every plate, blending tradition with heartfelt storytelling through food,” says Kaushik Sengupta, Corporate General Manager, Sens Hospitality Division.

The menu is a lyrical journey through Bengal’s culinary landscape — from the sharp, golden warmth of Shorshe Ilish to the tender allure of Ilish Bhapa and Ilisher Paturi. Relish the quiet comfort of Doi Ilish, the rustic charm of Begun Ilish, and the fiery boldness of Ilish Tel Jhal. Then, sink your senses into the crisp perfection of Bhaja Ilish, or indulge in the regal richness of Ilish Biryani — each dish a verse in this delicious ode to Hilsa.
