Namma Veettu Saapaadu - Ammavin Kai Manam!!!

Heard about Namma Veettu Saapaadu( and no, it's not a branch of Namma Veedu Vasantha Bhavan.. :p)  first time on CFG when a tag line contest was going on( I won it with the tag line - Rasikka rusikka manamanakka, enga veetu saapadu unga veettu saapadu illa, Namma Veettu saapadu.. ;)!!).So when I had the chance to sample the food , I did not hesitate for a second.

True to the name - we were invited home to try the food.A warm welcome into the lovely home where 'Namma Veettu Saapadu' food is prepared.Happy faces and pleasing welcomes are always a delight.After a round of clicking pictures and drooling at the amazing spread of food in front of us, we finally decide to start with the finger food.First in line was the 'Fish Kola Urundai'. This was simply amazing and the 20 pieces vanished in no time.



The beauty of the concept here is that all the food is home cooked and made with loads of  love and care and no additional preservatives or oil or anything unhealthy for that matter.The idea was conceptualized to serve large quantities of side dish for a family or a gathering of people when it is difficult to prepare a meal. I've personally wished there was a service like this on days when the house undergoes a major cleaning schedule or when my entire family is tired and nobody is in a mood to cook anything elaborate but are craving for some yummy non vegetarian food.

The menu is varied.It has every variety of non vegetarian you can think of.Literally a non veg lover's paradise.Each portion serves 4 or 6 people depending on the dish.If you're in a corporate office and tired of canteen lunch, this is the place to order!!The order needs to be placed before 10AM for same day delivery.This is done to ensure you get the freshest of sea food and so that the food is delivered hot and nice.The other awesome thing is you can customize the menu to anything you like and get the taste altered to your liking.

Here are all the dishes we got to try:

1. Nandu Podimas
2. Prawns Curry
3. Meen Kola
4. Meen Koalmbu
5. Vanchiram Meen Varuval
6. Mutton Roast
7. Mutton Kola Kuzhambu
8. Brain Fry
9. Kozhi spl Kozhambu
10. Muttai Kari
11. Chicken Spl 65
12. Mutton Chops























My favourites were the mutton chukka and the Nandu Podimas - crab meat( it's just so comfortable that you don't have to break open the shell to eat it).The Fish Kolambu was so flavourful that I even took back some home for the next meal.Other specialties were the brain fry and the spl chicken 65 which had no added colour but looked and tasted brilliant.Each of the dishes were carefully balanced, cooked to perfection and tasted absolutely brilliant.It felt like we were part of the family and treated with so much love and affection.At the end of the meal, we were left so full that even water refused to get in.That was the one day of my life when I got to try so many varieties of only non vegetarian food and it is an experience to remember!

I'd say a big big thumbs up for the food and it is definitely a must try.If you haven't ordered from Namma Veettu Saapaadu yet, I think it's time you did.They're definitely here to stay.Aren't you drooling already??? :D :D
