Why You Should Seize the Deal
Kerala as it is today was built on food - from the spice ports on the coast to the spectacular tea plantations of the Western Ghats. Its culture was enriched by successive waves of migration throughout thousands of years. Ships from Arabia, Portugal, Holland, and Britain, and merchants from across the rest of India and Asia - all brought their cultures, religions, and culinary influences to this tropical paradise on the southern tip of India. This cultural fusion helped create the unique and exciting cuisine of Kerala. Its dishes are inspired by the traditions of Tamil, Andhra, Kannada, Goan, Marathi, Punjabi, Kashmiri, Bengali, Chinese, Middle Eastern, Jewish, and Portuguese food. And increasingly, as Kerala makes its mark on the modern world, the influences widen to embrace Mexican, American, French, Japanese, Turkish, and other cuisines. Kerala has always been a place of fusion - a focal point for the flow of culinary influences across the world. This remarkable history of food and culture is distilled to its finest point in one small part of Kochi - the three square miles of Mattancherry.
