Crispy Kerala Chicken Cutlet Burgers, Toddler-Approved
We're Back!
Two years later, we’re back in the kitchen with crispy chicken cutlets, cheesy sliders, and our cutest little helper, Kiara!
a little about us
Our Story
It started in a tiny kitchen in the summer of 2020, a camera, a recipe, and two people who love good food.
Since then we've cooked our way through Kerala classics, fusion experiments and family recipes handed down from grandmothers, aunts and moms. We've chased weekends across New England, wandered the Swiss Alps, celebrated our wedding back home in Kochi, and welcomed our daughter Kiara, now our cutest little helper in the kitchen.
Two years later, we're back in the kitchen… Our kitchen has changed, Akhil has grown a beard to look “wiser,” and our daughter Kiara is joining the fun.
