Kaapi & Kumbilappam

Filter Kaapi, an integral part of the South Indian culture is traditionally served in a tumbler and Davarah. The Davarah and tumbler are used to cool the coffee by repeatedly shuffling the coffee between them. Kaapi is traditionally drunk from the Davarah

Kumbilappam is an authentic snack from Kerala prepared by cooking ripe jackfruit with grated coconut and jaggery. This mixture is then covered with rice dough, wrapped in cone-shaped green Bay Leaves and steamed. Once done, unwrap the Bay Leaf and let its fragrance stimulate your senses.

A cappuccino is a coffee-based drink made primarily from espresso and milk. It consists of one-third espresso, one-third heated milk and one-third milk foam.

In 1683, soldiers fighting for Marco d'Aviano, a monk from the Capuchin monastic order, found a hoard of coffee following a victory over the Ottomans in the Battle of Vienna. Turkish coffee being too strong for European taste, was diluted with cream and honey. The resulting brown beverage matched the robes of the monk, and was dubbed 'Cappuccino' after the order.
