- Injambakkam - Seize the chance to be welcomed into a local’s abode and immerse yourself in authentic cultural experiences and gastronomy. Unwind in Kamala’s home, adorned with traditional decor, after your extensive journey. Savor a genuine Chettinad feast, a culinary style renowned in Tamil Nadu for its emphasis on fragrant flavors and the use of freshly ground spices, especially in meat-based dishes. Kamala will guide you through the creation of two or three classic Chettinad recipes, including the art of making pour dosas, a delectable roasted crepe made from fermented rice and lentil batter, a delicacy of Chennai. Engage in a hands-on cooking class for approximately 1-2 hours, after which you’ll gather at her dining table to relish the dishes you’ve contributed to preparing.

This is a special opportunity to visit a traditional South Indian Chettiar home near the Chennai seashore. Get picked up from your Chennai hotel and drive out of Chennai to reach Kamala’s home located 5 minutes from the sea. Relax in her charming home and learn to cook South Indian dishes with an expert home cook. Kamala will teach you to make 2-3 dishes (including how to pour dosas) before you sit down together to enjoy a typical South Indian meal. You might try dishes such as Chettinad chicken, minced mutton nuggets, egg dosa, fish curry, jackfruit masala, and one of our favorites, piping hot dosas (roasted, rice pancakes) fresh off the griddle, all served on a fresh banana leaf.
Please note that this home is a 45 minute drive from the heart of Chennai, located midway between Chennai and Mahabalipuram, a popular tourist destination. Her home is also 20 minutes away from Dakshinachitra, a beautiful open-air museum of South Indian heritage and culture.
