Tides of Tradition: Celebrate Onam with Coastal Elegance at TAT

This Onam, dive into the heart of Kerala’s vibrant culture and celebrate the festival of harvest at TAT. Onam, a festival rooted in Kerala’s ancient history, marks the return of the legendary King Mahabali, whose reign is remembered for its golden age of prosperity and harmony. TAT’s specially curated Onam feast brings this spirit of abundance to life, offering a perfect homage to the traditional sadhya. The coastal-inspired menu is thoughtfully designed to capture the rich, authentic flavors of Kerala while adding a contemporary twist that promises a sensory journey along the Malabar coastline. Set against the cozy, homely charm of TAT’s interiors, families can come together to share in the joy of this auspicious occasion, creating lasting memories over an intimate and celebratory meal.

 

 

For this year’s Onam at TAT, the thali is a tribute to Kerala’s legendary culinary heritage, perfectly essaying the culture of food in Kerala. Begin your feast with Sambar, a fragrant lentil stew simmered with vegetables and aromatic spices, and Pulissery, a tangy yoghurt-based curry featuring tender white pumpkin. Dive into Avial, a vibrant medley of vegetables cooked in a creamy coconut gravy, and savor the refreshing Beetroot Pachadi, a unique blend of sweet and tangy flavors. The pièce de résistance, however, is Ada Pradhaman—an exquisite dessert made with flat rice noodles, organic jaggery, and creamy coconut milk, offering the perfect sweet finale. Each dish celebrates the bounty of the land, with fluffy steamed rice tying together the intricate flavors. Classic accompaniments like Pulli Ingi, a tangy tamarind-ginger relish, and Kadumanga, a spicy mango pickle, bring a burst of zest. Upperi and banana chips provide a delightful crunch, while fresh bananas and crispy pappadums round out this traditional feast. Celebrating Onam, TAT offers a nostalgic yet flavorful tribute to Kerala’s rich cultural heritage.

 

From the intricately crafted dishes to the beautifully styled decor, every detail at TAT reflects the essence of Onam’s historical significance—when the land was abundant, and King Mahabali’s presence brought peace and unity. Whether you’re hosting friends or celebrating with family, TAT promises an unforgettable Onam, where delicious food, heartfelt conversations, and the spirit of the festival come together seamlessly.
