A long-running Kerala institution in Karama that locals rely on for some of the best-value South Indian seafood in the city. Order the Malabar fish curry, karimeen, appam and biryani; it's where the flavour, not the decor, does the talking. It's busy, no-frills and doesn't serve alcohol, and peak evenings can mean a short wait for a table.
