Backstory

Just like the clear skies on a sunny day, a toddy shop holds an irresistible charm that never goes unnoticed. Its humble signboard boldly displays "Kallu*" and attracts a steady stream of people without needing directions. Unlike fancy cafes or high-end restaurants, these shops have a relaxed and casual setup. Some are even located near peaceful paddy fields or by serene kayals. Amidst lively conversations, nostalgic music, and the comforting sounds of a pressure cooker, the servers carry large clay pots filled with freshly fermented toddy. Alongside, they serve a delightful array of dishes, from classic tapioca to mouthwatering seafood, fish, and meat prepared with secret spices. You might even catch a news update or engage in a friendly political debate if you listen closely. But one thing you'll never hear is the rumble of an empty stomach, as these delectable treats ensure complete satisfaction.
