Fast Facts
 

Try puttu, steam cake from rice flour and coconut eaten with spicy curry; vellayappam, pancake from a batter of rice flour and yeast; and Thali, a vegetarian meal on a banana leaf or metal tray with compartments for rice and side dishes. At Fort Kochi Beach, many stalls prepare traditional dishes of freshly-caught fish and seafood. Shop for aromatic spices in Jewtown, as traders bargain at the Pepper Exchange. Look for carvings from antique shops in Jewtown, or pick up contemporary works by emerging local artists from Kashi Art Cafe in Fort Cochin.
