Experiences

Banana Leaf Feast
Multiple dates available
It is difficult to explain the joy of eating a South Indian meal on a banana leaf. You may eat the same items off a regular plate, but they don't taste the same. These large waxy leaves have been widely used throughout South India to serve food for thousands of years. Though the practice might appear outdated and peculiar, eating on a banana leaf has many advantages. • Banana leaves contain polyphenols, which are organic antioxidants. These polyphenols fight off all the body's free radicals and guard against illnesses. • Banana leaves have a wax covering that gives them a glossy appearance and imparts a mild flavor to the steaming food served. Come and enjoy our Banana Leaf Feast Veg. or Non-Veg. and get some added benefits.

We opted for a combo meal. It was tasty and plentiful if you didn't need to get stuffed. The desert was the weakest part - just OK. We will go back if in the area.

Lacked flavor. Chicken Tikka Marsala was thin / runny enough to be considered a soup

Home Away from Home for me - the food is as authentic as it can get outside India. And indeed does justice to the famed Chettinad Cuisine and the name it bears.
