Krishna's Inn Menu
Simple and Natural – Food for Well Being and Easy Living
A simple natural blend of herbs, spices, lentils and pulses that excite the senses through its colours, flavours, texture and taste. Kerala in South India is a haven of serene beaches, tranquil backwaters, exotic wildlife and lush green mountains, the food is a reflection of its bio-diversity.
With its centuries old tradition, Keralan dishes characterise both simplicity and complexity, being made from: one or two ingredients thereby extruding the inherent natural values; as well as from complex preparations of spices, herbs, pulses and oils being ground, mashed, heated, treated and stored before being cooked to amplify its flavour, taste, durability and therapeutic values. Recipes include coconut, rice, tapioca and spices such as black pepper, cardamom, fennel, nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon apart from a variety of vegetables, corriander, garlic, ginger, shallots and onions.

We Are What We Eat
Food does not have any frontiers. But the frontiers of the ancient kingdoms were redrawn just because of food.
The driving force behind the great voyages of Columbus and Vasco da Gama, ensuing imperialism and colonial rivalries in the East...
Indian spices continue to tackle taste buds across the globe, exactly the same way they did centuries ago to attract the Egyptians, Portuguese, Dutch and English voyagers to Indian shores.
British merchant ships reached the Indian shores in search of cheap spices. Kerala, a tiny province in southern India, has always been the spice capital of India.
Kerala group of restaurants is proud to bring you pure Indian cuisine the way it is meant to be... light, healthy and delicious.
What we eat is what we are... Food does not have any frontiers...
We have proven this philosophy in every aspect of our business for over a quarter of a century, well... food is our signature.
Adhiti devo bhava... (The Sanskrit shloka means each guest is god)
Thekkummuri Haridas, Chairman, The Kerala Group of Companies
