The spirit of Halloween is set to shimmer under the moonlight this year as Tiqri at Taj Santacruz, Mumbai, prepares to host a spellbinding soirée titled “Moonlit Masquerade” on October 31, 2025, from 7:30 PM onwards.
An ode to mystery, magic, and masked allure, the event promises an evening of masked charm, fine flavours, and whispers of the extraordinary. Guests are invited to don their most creative masks and step into an enchanting world where culinary artistry meets festive flair.
The elegant venue, known for its gourmet excellence and warm sophistication, will be transformed into a Halloween wonderland — complete with glowing pumpkins, cobweb accents, dramatic lighting, and an air of masked intrigue. Guests can look forward to a night filled with decadent dishes, handcrafted cocktails, and hauntingly delightful surprises that bring the spirit of Halloween to life, Taj-style.
Moonlit Masquerade aims to merge fine dining with festive celebration, offering Mumbai’s food and lifestyle enthusiasts a truly unique way to experience Halloween.
Nitin Minocha, Executive Chef, Taj Santacruz, says, “Halloween is all about creativity and celebration. At Tiqri, we’ve stirred a cauldron of imagination to design a menu that’s both playful and indulgent — blending unique flavours, spooky bites, and crafty cocktails that capture the spirit of the season. For us, Halloween is more than just costumes; it’s an experience. With eerie décor, imaginative dishes, and a touch of culinary theatre, we’ve created a night of frights, delights, and deliciously wicked fun.”
