It was a nostalgic experience finding an authentic Kerala restaurant in the middle of Edinburgh, Scotland, on my birthday. Delicious food, impeccable service, and reasonable rates. The Malayali attendant (didn't catch his name) was very helpful and did a great job! We had the non-veg thali, chicken biriyani, and porotta, all of which were delicious 😋
