Some places don’t ask to be remembered.

They just stay, a particular afternoon, someone across the table, the light through the old trees, a dish you didn’t expect to love.

Perhaps that is just what Lota does.

Some mornings ask for eggs. This one asked for something better.

The tandoor doesn’t need seasoning advice.

Marinated, skewered, pulled at exactly the right moment. The Fish Tikka from the Lota kitchen, straight from the fire to the plate.

Fragrant rice. Fresh prawns. A recipe that knows exactly where it comes from. Dinner, sorted.

Bengal, in one very good bite.

Mochar Chop, crisp and golden, with kasundi on the side.

Kerala has a particular way with coconut & spice. The plate travelled a long way to get here. It was worth the journey.
