Coorgi
food festival in Chennai

It’s a
well-known fact that the Coorg's live to eat and take pride in their
distinctive cuisine, which is influenced by the geography of the land
as well as the history and culture of the inhabitants. The South
Indian restaurant at Hotel Park Sheraton, Dakshin is offering an
authentic taste of Coorg over a 12-day long Coorg Food Festival at
Dakshin.
The Kodavas
(inhabitants of Coorg) trace their descent from Alexander the Great
and consequently are strictly non-vegetarian. Coorgi fare is high on
spices which are grown in the region, with liberal use of pepper,
cardamom and cinnamon. Liberal doses of kachampuli, a dark and tart
vinegar which adds the authentic touch to the cuisine.
The
accompaniments include sannas, puttu, pulao, yellow flavoured rice
and egg biryani. Fish / chicken / beef pickle and chutneys add a dash
of spice to the meal There’s a variety of rice dishes to choose
from but we would highly recommend the nei kool (rice garnished with
nuts and raisins, drenched in hot ghee!). Try the Akki Otti which
goes best with a variety of curries including crab, meat and pork.
The
delicious non-vegetarian options include meat pulao, Kadabu, prawn
curry, chicken / fish curry, koli curry (chicken), fried quail, fried
chicken coated with sesame seeds, venison, liver masala, menu saaru
(fish), pork chops, pandi curry (pork) and parande fry. Cubes of
pork in a dark sauce are served with buttery kadambuttus and a
squeeze of lime.
