Dal Roti
You’ll hear the buzz about this place before you even arrive in town – it’s the best food in Fort Cochin. Friendly and knowledgable owner Ramesh will hold your hand through his expansive North Indian menu, which even sports its own glossary, and help you dive in to his delicious range of vegetarian, eggetarian and nonvegetarian options. The setting is chic minimalist, with whitewashed walls and bench seating, helping you focus on the yummy dishes here.

Teapot
This stylish haunt is the perfect venue for ‘high tea’, with quality teas, sandwiches and full meals served in chic-minimalist, airy rooms. Witty tea-themed accents include loads of antique teapots, tea chests for tables and a gnarled, tea-tree based glass table. The death by chocolate here (Rs50) is truly cocoa homicide. Trust us.

Kashi Art Cafe
An institution in Fort Cochin, this place has a hip-but-casual vibe, along with hip-but-casual service. The coffee is as strong as it should be and the daily Western breakfast and lunch specials are excellent. A small gallery shows off local artists.

Solar Cafe
This arty and funky cafe at Draavidia Gallery serves up organic breakfasts and lunches in a brightly coloured and friendly setting. There’s a fun open kitchen and the upstairs veranda seating overlooks the hubbub of the street below.

Casa Linda
This modern dining room above the hotel of the same name might not be much to look at, but it’s all about the food here. Chef Dipu once trained with a Frenchman and whips up delicious local Keralan dishes alongside French imports like Poisson de la Provencale (fish fried in oil and herbs, Provence style). The Keralan dry-fried coconut prawns (Rs140), made to a loving mother’s recipe, are scrumptious.

Oy’s Restaurant
This new addition to the dining scene is one of the hippest looking restaurants in Kochi. The setting is groovy lounge-like: with low-slung couches backed by bamboo; low glass-topped tables; and a bass-heavy chill-out soundtrack. The Southeast Asian–focused dishes are original and reasonably good – try the grilled prawns with crunchy vegetables (Rs145).

Grand Pavilion
This is the restaurant at the Grand Hotel and is as retro-stylish as the hotel itself. It serves a tome of a menu that covers dishes from the West, North India, South India and most of the rest of the Asian continent. The meen pollichathu (fish cooked in banana leaves, Rs150) here gets the thumbs up.

South Star
This upmarket version of the Bimbis chain of restaurants is in a dark, moodily lit space that’s plushed out in nice chairs and dark-wood tables. The bulky menu has North and South Indian victuals, as well as a massive choice of Chinese dishes.

Fishmongers
Behind the Chinese fishing nets are a couple of fishmongers, from whom you can buy fish (or prawns, scampi, lobster), then take your selection to a shack where they will cook it and serve it to you (fish about Rs40 per kg).

Aruvi Nature Restaurant
An interesting twist on the traditional Keralan set meal – the whole menu here is created according to ayurveda principles and contains no dairy, spicy peppers or salt. And it’s still damned tasty – definitely worth a try!

Salt ‘n’ Pepper
Superbly average food, but the street-side tables bustle nightly with punters having a ‘special teapot’ tipple (Rs100).
