Flavours, from the spice capital of the world

Flavours of Kerala brings a unique and rich cuisine from Kerala, a coastal state in India. Kerala was known as the spice capital of the world centuries ago attracting traders from around the world. With them came influences of their cultures and religions, infusing a rarely seen variety in cuisine. Coconuts , Cardamom, Cloves, Cinnamon, Curry leaves and many other local spices infuse Kerala food, making it very distinct from other Indian cuisines. Kerala is known by two great monikers, Spice Capital of the World and God’s Own Country, reflecting its centuries old spice trade and tourist destinations.
