A typical kerala style restaurant. Giving the old classic vibes of kerala tea stalls , Balan chettans kada serves their famous square porotta and the best pairing to that is the mutton chaps. When i had visited the mutton chaps was over which shows the high demand of the dish. So i had some typical kerala style beef roast to go along with the porotta. Talking about the porotta , it is much fluffier than a normal porotta but lacks the layers to that of a typical kerala porotta , but tastes just like any other porotta. Now the beef was slow cooked and had a non over powering masala coated over it and roasted to perfection. The beef is definitely a match made in heaven with the porotta. Ordered some chicken fry as well, but it wasn't hot and lacked any sort of Masala making it a failure...but the beef and porotta definitely did stand out. I would definitely want to try the mutton chaps next cos the beef and porotta eventhough was amazing seemed pretty ordinary and is available in many places.

Hoping to get the mutton chaps next time. For those who are looking for an affordable place with some typical kerala tea shop vibes do try our Balan chettans kada. And please carry cash cos they don't have any online mode of transactions sticking to the old style. Those who visit this shop definitely should try the the avocado shake from ambedkar coolbar next door.
