   I was pretty excited to share this weekend's special with our regular punters 🤸♀️

   Black pepper squid with house-made Spätzle (a German style pasta), daun kesum (vietnamese mint), spring onions and a lemon pangrattato.

     @nihilistnomya black peppercorns, green chilies, curry leaves (perhaps some fennel seeds) - that's why I adore S. Indian - Chettinad spicing and flavors

     People wax lyrical about Singapore Chilli Crab, but honestly, Black Pepper Crab is where it's at.

     There's something about the sweet, musky and floral notes in the toasted peppercorns that marry so well with burnt butter, chilli and curry leaves.

     @SRDas @nihilistnomya Madurai and Mangalore are my favorite Indian food cities. Maybe Coimbatore as well

     @skinnylatte @nihilistnomya I have super fond memories of a meal in Madurai - so many things, soft soft idlis, kotthu paratha, but most of all an incredible crab "omelette" - kid2 was 8 or so then, she asked for and we got more, as she kept eating, tears rolling down her cheeks.
     Aah good times
