Why Jain food in Kerala needs a specialist
Kerala cuisine is coconut-and-curry-leaf based and houseboat menus are seafood heavy. Kanaiya arranges pure Jain meals on Alleppey houseboats (cooked onboard to your specification), Jain-friendly hotels in Munnar and Thekkady, and no-onion-no-garlic South-Indian and Gujarati food throughout your backwater tour.
