Our mission is to bring a little taste of that thrilling fusion to your table. Every dish is a tribute to one of India's most celebrated food cultures, bringing the warmth, vibrancy, and distinctive taste of Kerala to the table.
Kerala as it is today was built on food, from the spice ports on the coast to the tea plantations of the Western Ghats. Over centuries, traders, migrants and explorers from Arabia, Portugal, Holland, Britain and across India and Asia helped shape a cuisine that remains one of the most exciting expressions of cultural fusion anywhere in the world.
Inspired by Kerala's Rich Culinary Heritage
Named after the historic district of Mattancherry in Kochi, our restaurant celebrates the diverse flavours, traditions, and cultures that have shaped Kerala's world-renowned cuisine. From fragrant spices to time-honoured recipes, every dish reflects a region where food has connected people and cultures for centuries.
Mattancherry is a thriving community of different tongues and ethnic identities, a fascinating blend of its colourful past and harmonious present that makes it one of the most unique places in all of India. From spectacular Chinese fishing nets on the waterside to the synagogue, churches, temples and mosques that sit side by side in bustling streets leading to the docks and spice market, Mattancherry lives its history in vibrant colour.
