Food Talk
  • Hello all,
     
    I am wondering if there are any food items that are specific to cholas/ pallavas/ pandyas or any Indian kingdom for that matter. Does it still exist in present day Indian cuisine?
     
    Kindly share your views on this or let me know if there have been earlier conversations on this topic.
     
  • I was told - Idly a indonesian dish, vada & sambar as marathi food

    dont have any proof but heard from people

    Only laddu, Appam, cheedai, el urundai, akkara adisil have some references i shared with you earlier.

    can we call them Pandya ( because periyalwar refers them)
  • I remember reading the utiramerur kailasantha temple inscriptions of
    danti varma pallava and rajendra chola : which talks of the various
    items for neivethiyam, will search ref and post here. Maybe chandra
    has the full version

  • Dear,

  • Doctor Saab,

    I have lived in Coimbatore, in Ramnagar. My School, my college( Peelamedu) and later work spot ( Ganapathy ).

    Never heard of such an epithet 'Coimbatore food" not even in Chennai, where I am living for more than forty years.

    'Mysore Paku' is not a term known to Mysorians. They call it 'Kadle barphi'.

    Coimatore is reputed for 'Palakkadu catering experts.

    The address please to taste the food.
