From creamy Syrian Christian stews to fiery Nadan curries, explore the soul of our kitchen. Every bowl is a piece of Kerala, slow-cooked in coconut oil and stone-ground spices.

Our Nadan Chicken Curry is a quintessential Kerala classic. We use slow-roasted coconut and stone-ground masalas to create an earthy, nutty depth, balanced with the creaminess of house-made coconut milk.

This Drumsticks and Raw Mango Curry, or Muringakka Manga Ozhichukootan, is a dish guided by instinct and memory. The raw mango lends a sharp acidity, drumsticks add an earthy depth, and coconut wraps it all in a fatty embrace.

Our Ulli Theeyal features caramelized roasted coconut, tamarind, and slow-cooked shallots. With its deep, smoky flavours and crackling tanginess, this dense and intriguing dish is a bold, complex experience.

Pidiyum Kozhiyum is a traditional breakfast or dinner dish of St. Thomas Christians. Soft rice dumplings (Pidi) are served with a flavourful chicken curry (Kozhi), making for a healthy and hearty meal.

This is our Travancore Kozhi Curry, a rustic and soulful homestyle chicken curry. I am tasting it straight from the pan to ensure the flavours are just right, bringing the warmth of Travancore to your table.

An everyday Red Fish Curry, a staple in any Kerala home. Here, it's served with Pidi, or steamed rice dumplings, for a comforting and traditional lunch.

A wholesome spread of classic Kerala vegetarian dishes. This meal includes a creamy Avial, a sweet and tangy Pineapple Pachadi, a light Olan, and a rich Payasam for dessert.

Kootu Curry is a prominent dish in any Kerala Sadya. Our version features Kadala (black chickpeas) and yam cooked in a thick, warm coconut masala, creating a hearty and flavourful curry.

About Heartwarming Curries

Most curry joints in Mumbai rely on pre-made spice mixes, but here, the base of every curry starts with freshly scraped coconut and spices ground on a stone. When you open a container, that first aroma is exactly what you would smell in a grandmother’s kitchen in Kerala. We don't believe in shortcuts when it comes to the depth of flavour.
