Authentic Malabar food. Food is extremely top class, proper packaging biryani was delicious. Waiting for Malabar Café opening to dine with family again.
Anand.
The food specialized in Kerala cuisine but it is also suited to the palate of those not used to the general spiciness associated with this particular cuisine.
We had the chicken curry, appams, mutton roast, chicken roast and thaali. We also sampled their live grill and the fish (deep fry), squid (masala) and prawn (roast) which was delicious.
The staff was very helpful and supplied us with additional accompaniments like curd and pickles. We went with our whole family and everyone had a good time.
The view from the balcony is beautiful.
One point I would call out is that though we had booked and informed in advance that we would be celebrating a wedding anniversary that day, the management seem to have missed that detail and there was nothing special arranged for that. Our parents were expecting a mini cake which generally most other 5 star establishments provide.
Grand Hyatt in Kochi and Being a kochite How can I miss it. Waited for the right moment. Went there on Nov 23rd for lunch buffet with Parents n uncle as it was the Wedding anniversary of my parents. They were surprised bcoz I dint tel them it was Hyatt Lunch. So after initial surprises we went ahead for food. Spread is not really huge. But watever is there it was really good. Since parents r fans of kerala food watever on spread was too good for them especially mutton dishes. Biriyani was jus yumm. So starting wit chicken n spinach soup, it had a different taste. But really good one. Then went for appam n meen manga curry n kozhi n pidi. There was a delay in getting appam. I had orderred it first bt i cud see appams goin to other tables n my waiter asked to wait. Reduced 5 to 4 star due to delay. Then beef n kaya, mutton curry n biriyani everythg too good. Chicken pizza was normal. Dint shawarma bcoz i am nt a fan of it. Then dessert section. It had around 20types bt i dint find anythg that much interesting. Was looking for caramel pudding or sme thg simple. May be bcoz iam nt a dessert person. Then went for kerala rice curd sambhar n pickle bcoz i cudnt kerala rice behind being the biggest fan of it. It was good too. That was it. Had a lime tea n wrap it up. Everyone enjoyed it. Since it was too sunny dint go out for pics. Bt will definitely come for a dinner to enjoy the night view. Also planning for breakfast buffet. If anyone has gone pls help wit the rates.
I wouldnt say this is the top notch buffet. I believe there is always space to push ur limits.
