Tucked inside Thalassery’s spice-scented lanes, Sreenarayana-Babu’s kitchen feels like a living recipe book of Malabar. Sun-bleached walls echo with decades of sizzling karuvapatta and coastal gossip, while the air carries turmeric, roasted coconut, and the faint crackle of coconut oil. Here, grandmothers still grind masalas on stone, and every plate of kallumakkaya curry arrives with a story of Arab traders, French flags, and the town’s restless appetite.
