Flavors of the Hills: Private Chef Dining & Farm-to-Table Himalayan Gastronomy
From traditional slow-cooked Siddu to charcoal-grilled trout and organic orchard salads, explore the private culinary world created exclusively for Vivaak guests.
At The Vivaak and Vaza, we believe dining should be an intimate journey rather than a standardized hotel buffet. With a dedicated private estate chef at your service, every meal is prepared fresh to order using heirloom recipes and fresh mountain ingredients.,### Heirloom Himachali Heritage Dishes
Experience authentic regional culinary artistry that commercial restaurants rarely offer. Savor **Himachali Siddu** — steamed fermented wheat bread stuffed with spiced walnuts, poppy seeds, and drizzled with warm desi ghee. Delight in slow-braised **Khatta Meat** and **Pahadi Dal**, simmered over low wood embers for six hours.,### Al-Fresco Barbecue by the Heated Pool
Evenings in the hills call for open flames. Our chef sets up live charcoal barbecue grills right on the stone terrace. Enjoy succulent rosemary-marinated chicken, river trout, charred cottage cheese skewers, and grilled seasonal vegetables under the canopy of pine trees.,### Bespoke Menus Tailored to You
