About Ammomma's Thali: A South Indian Legacy
This isn't your everyday buffet. It is a slow, plated experience available only on Fridays and Saturdays. Chef Rajeev prepares these specific family recipes with care, so plan your visit during lunch hours to enjoy the full thali service as it was intended—leisurely and with full attention to the flavors.
A Taste of Tradition
There is a certain pace of life here at the foot of Nandi Hills that demands a slower approach to dining. Ammomma’s Thali is our tribute to that rhythm. Instead of the rush of a buffet, we return to the basics of South Indian hospitality.
We serve this meal in a traditional, sit-down format, allowing you to appreciate the nuance of each dish. The thali includes a welcome cooler like Panakam or buttermilk, followed by dry starters, a rotation of regional curries, and staples like Malabar Parotta, Appam, or red rice. You will find that Chef Rajeev’s approach focuses on the balance of spices rather than overwhelming heat, staying true to his family's roots.
Why Fridays and Saturdays?
We dedicate these days specifically to this menu to ensure freshness. Because these recipes rely on traditional preparation methods, we cannot rush the kitchen. We invite you to join us for lunch, sit by the pool, and enjoy a meal that connects you to the heritage of the region.
