Kairali

Kerala Parotta with Curry

Flaky, multi-layered flatbread cooked on a griddle — completely different from tandoor roti — best torn and dragged through a spiced beef or chicken gravy

Appam with Stew

Lacy, fermented rice crepe with soft center, served alongside a mildly spiced coconut milk vegetable or chicken stew — a Kerala breakfast staple done properly

Puttu with Kadala Curry

Steamed cylinders of ground rice layered with coconut, served with a dark, robust black chickpea curry — one of the more distinctive Kerala breakfast dishes

Kerala Fish Curry

Tamarind-forward fish curry cooked in coconut milk with ground spices — intensely red, tangy, and fragrant with curry leaves

Vegetable Thali

Rotating set meal with rice, sambar, rasam, multiple vegetable sides, papadum, and pickle — the best value on the menu and changes daily

Masala Dosa

Thin, fermented rice crepe with a spiced potato filling — solid execution of the South Indian standard, served with coconut chutney and sambar

Idli with Sambar

Steamed rice cakes served with sambar and fresh coconut chutney — reliable, light, and the best way to start a weekend morning visit

Kerala Chicken Biryani

Fragrant, long-grain rice cooked with whole spices and bone-in chicken — leaner and less oily than Hyderabadi styles, with a distinct curry leaf presence
