food
a developed style of vegetarian indian fusion using fresh natural produce with herbs, coconut and spices
the tower
a rammed earth floor around the water tower provides a beautiful setting for the restaurant. kingfishers perch on nearby branches, eagles soar overhead and buffalo graze contentedly in the neighbouring fields
long low tables and comfortable cushions present the opportunity to enjoy breakfast or dinner at ground level, while upright seating is available for those who hanker after a more familiar experience
breakfast
tropical fruit salad features sweet papaya, refreshing watermelon and small, intensely flavoured banana. in season there's mango and jackfruit, and every westerner should discover the charms of chikoo
fruit salad combines beautifully with muesli and home made curd produced from locally sourced buffalo milk
for a more substantial start to the day, eggs are served poached, fried or scrambled on toast, boiled with skinny buttered soldiers or poached over a bed of wilted spinach with herb butter
dinner
buffet dinner is served at seven thirty each evening, consisting of traditional south indian dishes adapted to suit a health conscious western palate
india is perhaps the best country in the world to be a vegetarian, offering a rich array of ingredients, spices and cooking styles
a typical menu might include channa masala delicately flavoured with mint, freshly cooked vegetable bhaji, lemon rice, salad with red peppers, raita, papadum and home made hot breads
drinks
every juice is lovingly prepared to order, and lassies are created using locally sourced buffalo milk and curd
coffee is organic and chai comes western style or masala. a range of herbal teas is also available
