Sherly will welcome you with a smile into her beautiful home for your dining experience in Kochi, located a 40 minute drive from Fort Kochi. Her home is inside a gated community and has a lush green lawn at the entrance. Sip on a freshly squeezed lime juice as you listen to Sherly narrate her food stories and tell you about the spices used in South Indian cooking. Later you will join her at the dining table to share a meal that may include dishes such as chicken cutlets, avial (mixed vegetables with coconut and yoghurt gravy), fish fry, prawn and green mango curry and rice. End your meal on a sweet note with a traditional dessert like payasam (milk and vermicelli pudding).
Notes

1. As for most Indian homes, please remove your footwear at the entrance of the home.
2. Sherly can offer pick-up and drop-off from Fort Kochi hotels at an additional price, so please click on the transportation option if you'd like to include a hotel transfer.
