Kari Appla, Bandra – A Hidden Gem of Flavours What an absolute delight this place turned out to be! Kari Appla is a small, intimate restaurant that beautifully blends the cuisines of Maharashtra and Kerala. The concept is special—the husband hails from Kerala, and the wife from Maharashtra—and you can feel that personal touch in every dish. I was attended to by Parth and later by Suresh, both of whom were warm, attentive, and made the experience even better. Even though the owners weren’t around that evening, their passion clearly shines through the food and the space. The highlight of my visit was the Angamalai Pork Roast with Ghee Rice. Simply phenomenal! Perfectly spiced, rich, tender pork with that punch of Kerala-style masala, balanced by the subtle fragrance of ghee rice. It’s an absolute must-try if you’re here. The restaurant itself is small but thoughtfully designed. There’s a see-through kitchen, which is neat, spotless, and such a joy to watch while the chefs work their magic. They also have a live counter setup where you can sit at the bar-style stools and enjoy your meal right in front of the action—it’s rare to find such transparency and energy in a kitchen. The walls are lined with photos that give you a sense of warmth and homeliness, almost like walking into a family album. Combined with the intimate seating and the friendly staff, the whole vibe feels cozy yet modern. Overall, Kari Appla is a hidden treasure in Bandra—it’s not just about food but about heart, culture, and soul on a plate. If you love exploring regional Indian flavors, this is a place you cannot miss. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The food here is made with so much love. I could go on about the pepper chicken rasam or the Angamaly pork — easily the best meal I’ve had in a long time — but it’s the care in every detail that stays with you. The fried onions in the rice, the lightness of the broth, the open kitchen with the friendliest yet shy cooks you want to adopt and take home it’s all proof of that love. It took me a while to step out of my comfort zone and come to Kari Apla. When I did, I found comfort of the best kind. Thank you Ibani and Mathew for this and to anyone’s who’s reading this. GO!
