PVR INOX launches luxury gourmet pecan menu for moviegoers nationwide
Moviegoers looking for more than just popcorn can now experience a remarkable gourmet upgrade. PVR INOX has joined forces with the American Pecan Council to launch an exclusive, seven-week Pecan Food Festival. Running till August 30, 2026, this culinary event spans 33 select luxury cinemas across Delhi NCR, Mumbai, and Bengaluru. Chef Mayank and his dedicated kitchen team conceptualized this limited-edition PVR INOX pecan menu to blend premium hospitality seamlessly with big-screen entertainment.
Global entertainment venues increasingly combine high-end dining with visual arts to compete directly with traditional fine-dining establishments for consumer leisure time. By integrating globally sourced, nutrient-dense ingredients into theater settings, multiplex operators offer a much richer, multi-sensory weekend outing.
Crafting Gourmet Cinema Flavors
Diners visiting premium screening formats: such as Director's Cut, Gold Class, INSIGNIA, and LUXE, can explore a diverse range of sweet and savory recipes. The customised menu highlights the buttery richness, distinct crunch, and natural versatility of American tree nuts. Guests can order innovative dishes ranging from a Roasted Beetroot and Candied Pecan Salad to Pecan Nut Pesto Penne, which is prepared in both vegetarian and chicken variations. Beverage and dessert enthusiasts have equally exciting choices, including a Cookie Dough and Pecan Shake, a classic Brownie paired with Ice Cream, and a highly creative Pecan Sundae Popcorn.
Elevating Modern Theater Outings
Gautam Dutta, CEO of Revenue and Operations at PVR INOX Limited, explained that while great films remain at the core of their business, cultivating distinctive, immersive moments holds equal weight. He emphasized that thoughtfully curated food collaborations bring fresh discoveries to frequent patrons. Representing the American Pecan Council, In-Country Market Representative Sumit Saran noted that this partnership effectively highlights the exceptional taste and nutritional benefits of the ingredient. Audiences now gain a rare, accessible opportunity to taste experimental, chef-driven dishes without ever leaving their cinema seats.
