This place is second home to me by now!
Why? Well let me address that in two parts.
Part 1:
The authentic Kerala cuisine is fresh and sumptuous. Period! As a testamonial to this, my 7 year son who has very sharp taste buds, has habitualized the dry chicken and fish fry made at Cheta's on a weekly basis. Well honestly i can't differ from his views. The food is fabulous here!
The other items one must try are the puttu, veg stew, idiyappam, appam, different varieties of fish and their speciality 'meals' that they call "Pothichoru". To end that sumptuous meal one must try the devinity of the famous ginger tea! What else does one need! :D
Part 2:
The eatery is run by Mr. Superman and Mrs. Superwoman, who call themselves Suresh and Mangala to the rest of the world. Well i call them anna and akka with love and respect.
One of the most down to earth people i have met. Tied up with their day to day effort of meeting the ends, they never stop sharing a warm smile whenever they meet. (however tiered they might be). The conversations i have with them are nothing less than what i have with my close family members. The sense of warmth to me and each of my family members is something i can never forget.
Moving to the eatery: Don't be fooled by the small nature of their eatery. Their large hearts compensate for it! From large function, party orders, corporate orders to small swiggy takeaways, they are game for anything. You might like to call them and clarify on the items available in their menu on the specific day. (As they are subject to change)
Culture bestowed by Suresh and Mangala: In short, it's a community gathering where people come make friends, build relationships, eat and stay happy. :)
One more thing. Their style of cooking believes in respecting the nature & ecosystem around us. Any product, byproduct created in kitchen is used some way or the other. So nothing is wasted from the kitchen. Also note, no chemicals, colour or preservatives are used while...
Read moreDamn, this restaurant is way too expensive. Food tastes good. But we paid 560 bucks for breakfast for two people. We ordered 5 appam, 1 puttu, 1 veg stew, 1 kadala curry and 1 chicken curry. We wer served in plastic container. As per menu pictures, the bill should be 300-350. Stew, kadala curry is mentioned 35 in menu. 120 for chicken curry. We ordered these many items looking at the menu and the less quantity was justifiable. But to our surprise. The bill was double. When we asked the owner, his reply was it’s a very old photo of the menu. We wer charged 560/-. Pathetic experience. Owner is a nice man, but cheating people by hiding the price of items and not removing the old menu pictures speaks volumes about this place. We could have eaten two mutton biryani in a good ambience restaurant for the same price. So please avoid it unless you wanna spend 300/- per person for...
Read moreWorst food. It's just waste of money. Please don't go here. Chicken curry had just a lot of pepper in it nothing else. Quality of the food that you prepare is more important than the name of the restaurant or the list of dishes.prior to quality coming in to picture you should know how to prepare them firstly. Your Fish curry was just plain no where close to a taste of normal curry itself to even think of an authentic kerala fish curry. Fish fry had no salt. Poriyal(cabbage thoran) I guess was prepared quite in the early hours and was spoilt when served for the dinner. I wonder how come so many have written awesome reviews about this restaurant. Iam sure you guys haven't had the real authentic...
