From fiery, stone-ground buff roasts to our cult-classic Pazham Pori combo, these are the non-veg staples that define our kitchen’s swagger. ❤️‍🔥

Just dropped on our menu: a seriously peppery, batter-fried Pepper Chicken Fry. Inspired by the local chaayakada (tea shop) snacks in Trivandrum, this dish has an unbelievable Mallu kick from my special secret masala mix.

The great chicken fry war: Pepper Chicken Fry versus Thattukada Chicken Fry. Which one is your favorite? Try them both and let me know. Each has its own unique texture and spice profile, but both are incredibly delicious.

My Kovalam Smoky Roasted Chicken, also known as Chicken Chuttathu. The chicken is marinated in traditional stone-ground spices and then smoke-cooked for a robust, spicy flavor that is absolutely drool-worthy.

These are my Nasrani Prawns, lightly sautéed with everyday masalas and cooked just enough to keep them juicy and soft. It's an uncomplicated, homestyle dish that reminds you of a mother's love and generosity.

Juicy, fiery, and a signature dish. These Thattukada Prawns are a classic, charred just right and loaded with spice that doesn't wait for permission. This is Kerala's street-style heat, plated for the bold.

Frying up a batch of my Prawn Pataka Vada. These crispy, prawn-packed savory doughnuts are exploding with Kerala masalas. It's a dish straight from my playbook of flavor indulgence.

The finished Prawn Pataka Vadas, ready to be devoured. These are a perfect example of how I blend toddy shop vibes with rooftop swagger, creating unapologetic Kerala flavors.

Taking the freshly fried Prawn Pataka Vadas out of the oil. You can see how crispy and golden they are. If you love prawns, you have to try these.

The ultimate sleeper hit: Pazham Pori (sweet banana fritters) served with a fiery Buff Roast. This sweet and savory combination is a cult classic in Kerala, and one bite will show you why it's so addictive.

A plate of Pazham Pori and Buff Roast. The sweetness of the fried plantain cuts through the rich, spicy gravy of the buff roast, creating a flavor explosion that is pure Kerala swag.

About Signature Non-Veg Starters & Roasts

When you order our roasts, don't expect 'restaurant mild.' We slow-cook our buffalo meat and chicken with stone-ground spices until the masala is dark, sticky, and clings to every piece. If you're going for the Pazham Pori & Buff Roast, don't overthink the sweet-and-spicy combo—just trust the process. It is the kind of flavour that hits you hard and stays with you, exactly the way it should.
