Staying
true
to
its
name,
Chaya
Kada
is
your
Keraleean
inspired
restaurant
vibing
with
posters,
artwork,
memorabilia
from
South
Indian
80s
and
90s
filmography.
Cozy
interiors
and
typical
Keraleean
tea
shop
seating
of
table
and
benches
that
are
named
after
the
many
districts
of
Kerala.
Menu
has
your
typical
appam,
porotta,
iddiyappam
and
ghee
rice
with
spicy
chicken,
beef
and
seafood
curries.
The
other
special
items
I
would
recommend
are
their
Beef
or
chicken
pothi,
their
version
of
Pothi
chorru
(takeaway
meals,
typically
boiled
red
rice)
and
Chattin
chorru
(meals
in
a
clay
pot,
red
rice,
assorted
thoran,
sambals,
curries
and
a
papad).
I
still
order
their
takeaway
Samovar
chai
by
litre
and
occasionally
enjoy
their
small
2
rial
sip
cups
in
the
evenings.
A
call
ahead
to
their
landline
will
help
you
pre-order
their
delicious
evening
snacks
that
vary
each
day
in
a
week.
Both
savoury
and
sweet
snacks
are
available
at
nominal
pricing.
For
all
your
deep
diving
into
nostalgia
from
Kerala,
order
the
afore
mentioned
dishes.
Generally
all
their
curries
would
be
labeled
as
spicy.
But
then
again,
it's
sometimes
good
to
live
a
little.
Is
it
one
of
the
best?
No,
but
they
do
a
good
job
of
dishing
out
consistently
good
tasting
plates
of
their
carefully
curated
short
menu.
Great
services
whenever
we
dined
in.
Takeouts
were
always
placed
by
order-thru-telephone
and
picked
up
in
20
min.
