Raheem Residency, on Alleppey's main beach, is in an elegant old British-built bungalow dating from the 19th century, and its partially alfresco restaurant serves a variety of cuisines—Kerala, North Indian, and some Western dishes. Try the Alleppey fish curry, the Kerala prawns roast, or a chicken biryani (served only at lunch) and enjoy the beach view from the upper floor. Alcohol is served.
This rambling former Dutch home now serves as an art gallery—displaying the work of contemporary Indian artists and works from art camps held in villages across Kerala—and a spacious garden café extending out to a large back lawn. Best known for its delicious Italian pizza (made in a traditional stone oven in front of you) and panini, the restaurant changes its menu regularly, depending on what ingredients are in season, making for interesting choices and dependable freshness.
Inside a budget hotel in a great location on the jetty, this simple, open-air restaurant doesn't skimp on quality or authenticity. The menu is almost entirely seafood—chicken and specialty items (like lobster) must be ordered in advance—and every dish is cooked to order and presented in a clay vessel. Note that service can be slow, no alcohol is served, and open-air dining isn't available during the monsoons.
The airy, glass-roofed Hill Spice, at the Tall Trees resort, is a more elegant alternative to the restaurants in Munnar's main bazaar. The Kerala dishes are your best bet, though the restaurant offers thalis and buffet meals along with Indian, Indo-Chinese, and continental food.
It's not much to look at, and it can get noisy when crowded, but this Calicut stalwart has been serving tasty food since 1939. The chicken and the prawn biryanis are both excellent (come early for these), as is the prawn thattukada, an unusual fried shrimp dish that goes well with parathas (a flaky flatbread); other favorites include the prawn pepper fry and tamarind fish curry. The biryanis may run out on the early side, but the restaurant is open quite late.
