As Autumn is progressing, do you feel the chill in the air that makes you seek comfort food? Too soon for hot dishes and too irresistible for seafood, this autumn Swagath brings you must have coastal cuisine.
At Swagath, we’ve always believed food is about seasons as much as it is about flavours. And autumn is one of the best times to explore seafood dishes. You just Swagath if you want to try the freshest catch of the sea in Delhi.
At Swagath, we celebrate India’s regional coastal cuisine by bringing together flavours from across the shoreline onto one table.
Each coastal region tells its story through spice, and our menu lets you experience them all.
Try our Mangalorean Sukka and Gassi, Chettinad Pepper specials, the tangy Malabari curries, and the bold, tamarind-laced Andhra Pulimunchi. Every dish carries the essence of its home. And when autumn arrives, these flavours feel even more irresistible, warming you from the inside out.
Some of our seafood highlights you shouldn’t miss this season include:
Our kitchen prepares fresh fish, marinated in hand-pounded spices and seared on a traditional tawa. The result is a crisp golden crust that gives way to tender, flaky meat inside.
Inspired by Mumbai’s iconic street food, this dish delivers a spicy batter-fried crunch. A squeeze of lime on top lifts the flavours and keeps it lively.
You will become lost in the rich red masala slow-cooked in ghee that clings beautifully to juicy prawns. This dish is best enjoyed with neer dosa to balance the fiery heat with rich sweetness.
Coconut milk, curry leaves, and ground spices create gravies that are tangy yet soothing. They warm the palate while letting the natural taste of seafood shine.
Bold peppercorns, garlic, and shallots come together in a dish with a lingering heat. Paired with flaky Malabari parathas, it’s comfort food with a kick.
This mix of regional signatures and seasonal specials is why Swagath has become the go-to destination for authentic seafood in Delhi.
Is there any rule? Well, if you’ve ever wondered when is the best time for seafood, here’s the simple truth: Post-monsoon to winter is when you get the best catch. Once the rains settle, the seas are calmer, and fishing brings in fresher, more abundant varieties.
In India, the best months are October to February, which may vary. That’s when prawns, pomfret, surmai, and other popular seafood are at their peak in taste and texture.
Of course, seafood restaurants in Gurgaon like ours source responsibly all year round. But if you’re particular about seasonality, autumn and winter are the golden window for enjoying seafood dishes at their absolute finest.
Now, talking about the rule not many might know of: the “seafood month rule”. It says that you should only eat seafood in months with the letter “R.” This comes from Europe and North America, where oysters and shellfish were unsafe to eat in summer due to warmer waters.
In India, it works a little differently. Our tropical waters have their own cycles, and local fishermen avoid the peak monsoon breeding months to allow the seas to replenish. That means by the time autumn arrives, the catch is fresh, sustainable, and abundant.
So, while the global seafood month rule might not apply word for word here, the principle is the same: eat fresh, respect the season, and choose trusted kitchens. That’s exactly why Swagath is among the most reliable seafood restaurants in Gurgaon and Delhi.
Although there is no one suitable time to enjoy your favourite seafood, Autumn brings in added perks. Coastal food brings comfort and the feeling of being hearty without being overwhelming.
This is why many of our regulars turn to seafood in Delhi during autumn. Our must have coastal cuisine suits the cooler weather, nourishes the body, and delivers flavour just right!
Autumn is here, and the rain is still pouring down. Doesn’t it make you crave fresh seafood because it is the right time to have one. There’s no food more in tune with these months than coastal cuisine.
Swagath brings the very best of India’s coasts to your table. Whether you’re searching for authentic seafood in Delhi or the finest seafood restaurants in Gurgaon, our menu will serve you the best.
So this autumn, experience the warmth, the spice, and the freshness of true coastal food at Swagath.
