The first of its kind 16 days long Food
Festival featuring cuisines from 14 Districts of Kerala
Kerala Kitchen Restaurant today announced its
plans to launch a Kerala Food Festival featuring the authentic food from Kerala
(the Southern Indian State) in Dubai.
Bringing together the flavors from the 14 Districts of
Kerala the Kerala Food Festival will be held at the Kerala Kitchen Restaurant
in Hamza Mall, Next to Maktoum Bridge on Bank Street Karama, Dubai, from the 07th
February to 22nd February 2014. Each day of the food festival will be
dedicated to cuisines from each District of Kerala and the last two days will
showcase a selection of the 14 days cuisines. The food festival is expected to
attract a good percentage of the 1.2 million Keralites living in the UAE in
addition to their non Keralite Friends and Colleagues.
“With the opening of the new restaurant in a Traditional
Kerala Home Style interior made of imported wood, Kerala Kitchen restaurant is
proud to present this Food Festival. This will be an opportunity for Keralites
living in Dubai to taste their home cooked food and invite their non Keralite
Friends and Colleagues to experience and enjoy the authenticity of Kerala and
accompany us on a voyage that takes them right into the heart of gods own
country through its diverse vegetarian and non-vegetarian cuisines from the 14
Districts of Kerala”, said Sandeep Balakrishnan, Managing Director of Kerala
Kitchen Restaurant.
“Kerala Kitchen Restaurant currently has two outlets in
Dubai and is planning to open 3 more outlets in UAE before end of this
year. In addition to the new outlets in
Dubai, the group also plans to open one restaurant each in the 14 Districts of
Kerala – a joint venture with like-minded expatriate investors. The preliminary plan is in place for this
venture”, added Sandeep Balakrishnan.
Kerala cuisine is distinctly different from food
elsewhere in India. Like the unique cultural and natural heritage of the state,
the cuisine of each district is also unique. The recipes, taste, name and
cooking style of each food item across the district in Kerala varies. Although
all styles of food can be found throughout the state, the food will be most
authentic within each given district. In addition to this there are special
dishes only available in certain districts.
Commenting on the Food Festival, Mr. Ranjith
Venketeswaran, General Manager, Kerala Kitchen Restaurant Group said, “We are
extremely excited to introduce the variants of the most popular specialties in
each district to the Indian, Expatriate and local community residing in UAE.
Residents in UAE are aware and fond of the traditional, spicy aromatic Kerala
Food, but most of them are not aware of the various tastes across the 14
districts. Exotic vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes from diverse cuisines
across Kerala will be made available during the food festival for Lunch and
Dinner”
Kerala Kitchen Restaurant has arranged a Toll Free
Telephone Number which is 800 KKR or 800 557 for more details about the Food
Festival and for delivery in Dubai.
