🌼 Ponnonam Vannallo! 🌼

The smell of banana leaves, ammachi’s sambar, that first spoon of payasam — Onam always brings us home. 🍛✨

This Onam, come home to Elam Cafe for a traditional Sadya, served on a banana leaf, just like back in Kerala. 🌴

🌿 A taste of Kerala, wrapped in tradition. 🍃🔥

Introducing the Kerala Special Porotta at Elam Café — soft, flaky porotta layered with rich, aromatic chicken curry or beef curry, infused with creamy coconut milk, wrapped in a banana leaf and gently steamed to perfection. 🤤

Two irresistible choices:
🍗 Chicken Porotta
🥩 Beef Porotta

Unwrap it. Tear into it. Let the flavours of Kerala take over. ❤️‍🔥
