With a total of 12 bacon-based dishes, The Whistling Kettle is all set to host a month-long bacon festival at their Golpark outlet.

Bacon Loaded Tomato Soup: This cold tomato soup is served with skewered bacon, that oozes fat in the soup to enhance the smoky flavour.  Rs 180

“The idea came from our desire to bring a piece of Darjeeling to Calcuttans. The people of Darjeeling have a strong attachment to their tea and their pork. So we wanted to offer something totally new for the meat-lovers of Calcutta right in our city,” said owners Bonisha Sharma and Sailesh Sarte.
