Stumbled upon this gem, just walking around. Lucky find! The food was superb! Chocolate pancakes with coffee, chicken sandwich with orange juice, banana pancakes, avocado toast and watermelon juice. And all this for less than INR. 1, 100. Superb value for money, and every dish was excellent.
Now coming to the vibe. Happy green and yellow walls greet you, adorned with antiques. The proprietor, a delightful person who wears many hats, explained all these are family heirlooms, now greeting the guests.
Saw another side that was very telling about the ethos of the place - that they are great hosts but brook no obnoxious behavior. A senior white Gentleman came im, while the place was full with breakfast rush, and proceeded to occupy the couch, sipping his coffee
The owner explaines the place was reserved and he would have to move to a smaller table, to whi h he responded, seemingly in jest, that he'd be out in a few minutes and not to look down upon solo customers. We all smiled. A playful comment. Unfortunately, he didn't leave for quite a while and when he was asked again, politely, he started creating a fuss, talking to the lady in a condescending tone. She stood her ground and asked him to leave, the coffee would be on the house. The cantankerous old man raised his voice and soon there was a racial undertone that was quite unmissable. She finally did get him to leave. He caused quite a scene, but the lady and her staff managed it smoothly. Kudos to her for not giving in to his ragebaiting and quietly asking him to leave.
Definitely recommend the place for their great food and ambience. You feel like a part of family tradition, and yes, there's a cute feline friend who says hello to the guests in between naps. A hidden treasure in Fort Kochi. One you definitely must discover!
