Chennai, July 15th 2022 – Indian food is seasonal, and during the monsoons, how we consume food, especially breakfast changes. With the arrival of the rainy season, it is essential to eat healthy, home-cooked foods, fresh fruits and vegetables. At Park Hyatt Chennai we lay great emphasis on seasonal ingredients and experimentation which has inspired us to introduce a Special Monsoon Breakfast at The Dining Room in association with US Cranberries and Anoothi Vishal. The festival will celebrate the monsoon and reiterate the importance of breakfast as one of the most important meals in Indian households.
The menu has been curated using US Cranberries, called America’s original superfruit to showcase their versatility as they can be incorporated into any cuisine to create both sweet and savoury dishes. It has been jointly curated by nine Hyatt hotels across India & Anoothi Vishal and will be available from 15th July to 15th August across these hotels at breakfast.
U.S. Cranberries have quickly become a favourite in India because of their numerous health properties, their vibrant red colour and sweet tangy taste. Cranberries are widely available in India in both dried and juice form and are often eaten as a snack or used as an ingredient in food and beverages.
Chef Balaji Natarajan and his team have put together an exciting and flavourful fusion menu that includes Cranberry Uthappam with Cheese and Cilantro, Almond Crusted Carom Seed Brioche with Cranberry Chili Compote, Cranberry Sprouts Poha, Oven Methi Cranberry Kulcha with Smoked Peanut Shallot Curry and more. For takeaway Cardamom, flavoured Coconut Cranberry Granola bars and Washington Cranberry Muesli Cookies are available. Kids get their own special breakfast treat – Cashew Cranberry Berliners.
“Our Culinary team at Park Hyatt Chennai believes in exploring other cultures through their food giving them a local twist and presenting to our guests. We are delighted to announce our collaboration with US Cranberries to showcase a combination of Indian and American culinary creations.”
Sascha Lenz, General Manager, Park Hyatt Chennai

Consumption is increasing rapidly as more and more consumers get aware of the taste and health benefits of cranberries. Both UTI and H.
