Sterling Unveils Udaipur Katha: A Rooftop Dining Experience Where Fire, Flavour, and Heritage Converge

Udaipur, 14 January 2026: As dining preferences across India evolve from transactional meals to immersive, story-led experiences, Sterling Holiday Resorts has introduced Udaipur Katha — a refined rooftop dining destination at Sterling Jaisinghgarh, Udaipur. Designed as a live-fire, open-sky culinary theatre, Udaipur Katha brings together regional heritage, artisanal cooking, and contemporary indulgence in a format that is both evocative and unhurried.

Set across two elevated terraces with panoramic views of the Aravalli ranges, Udaipur Katha reinterprets the evening meal as a ritual. Intimate jharokha-style cabanas, curated music under the stars, and live barbecue counters form a sensorial backdrop where food unfolds slowly, guided by flame, craft, and provenance.

Commenting on the launch,Dileep Nair, Senior Vice President – Customer Experience, Sterling Holiday Resorts, said, “Today’s diner is seeking depth — an experience that connects them to place, people, and culture.Udaipur Kathawas conceived as a space where guests can unwind at sunset, savour fire-led cooking inspired by Mewar, and let the evening linger. It is designed to be experienced, not rushed.”

Udaipur Katha marks Sterling’s seventh destination-led restaurant concept and builds on the brand’s growing portfolio of acclaimed, hyperlocal dining formats across India like The Malabar (at Sterling Wayanad), Pahaare (at Sterling Darjeeling), Airavat (at Sterling Aravalli Udaipur), and award-winning restaurants like Amo Odisha (at Sterling Puri), Slate and Pearl (at Sterling Kodai Lake). From coastal flavours in the east to mountain-inspired kitchens in the north, Sterling’s specialty restaurants have been shaped by long-stay guest insights and a growing appetite for immersive culinary storytelling.

The menu at Udaipur Katha celebrates live-fire cooking through both indulgent and nuanced expressions. Dishes such as slow-grilled Laal Maas, saffron-infused kebabs, and charcoal-fired game meats draw from regal Rajasthani traditions, while thoughtfully crafted vegetarian plates like Jackfruit Shashlik, Smoked Kaddu Steaks, and Churma-Stuffed Sweet Potatoes spotlight desert produce, native spices, and age-old techniques. Each course is complemented by bespoke condiments and suggested beverage pairings, ranging from fine spirits to locally inspired mocktails.

Desserts such as Ghewar Cheesecake and Baked Churma Tart reinterpret familiar favourites with contemporary finesse, extending the narrative from grill to plate with warmth and nostalgia.

The launch comes at a time when rooftop and open-sky dining formats are emerging as preferred choices in heritage destinations, reflecting a broader shift toward slower, experience-rich dining. For Sterling, Udaipur Katha represents both a brand-defining statement and a strategic reimagining of destination dining — transforming rooftops into memory-driven social spaces.

Udaipur Katha is located at Sterling Jaisinghgarh, Udaipur, and is open for dinner service. Prior reservations are recommended.
