On your kerala tour, note that Kerala is recognised as India's spice bowl. It is well-known for its rich culinary legacy, particularly that of marine cuisine. Spicy versions of non-vegetarian foods such as chicken, meat, and fish ('Molly' fish and 'Karimeen Pollichathu' fish) are popular. Vegetarians can sample vegetable delights prepared with coconut and bananas (Kerala's 'Puttu-Kadala' and 'Appam-Ishtu'). Don't forget to enjoy Kerala's specialty sweets, Palada Payasam and Halwa.
