"We have recreated the phase when Nawab Wajid Ali Shah brought with him an entourage of 1000 bawarchis and Khansamas from Lucknow.
"You cannot recreate that era in the open space with the flyover, buses, cars and skyscrapers all around, but once you step in the 'Awadh region' inside the building you will step back into the bygone era of 18th century," a spokesman said about the looking back event to continue for 10 days.
These were all delectable centuries old recipes including the Chapli Kebab, Bharwan Kalmi Kebab, Samundari Khazana, Mewe Mawe Ki Goli, especially prepared for the Royal households.
"The Awadh, bringing the smell, facets of the pre-independence United Provinces of Agra and Oudh established around 1722 AD with Faizabad as capital, show will not highlight the phase of Shah's dethroning and banishment to Metiabruz," he said.
"It will instead encapsulate the celebration part, which went on and on from Lucknow to Kolkata as royals were true foodies in those days," he said.
