ABOUT SAVYA RASA

An Epicurean Journey through Southern India

Savya Rasa was created to celebrate the richness of the cuisine and culture of Southern India. More often than not, due to stereotypes, most people outside of Southern India consider Idli, Vada, Sambar, Dosa etc as quintessential South Indian food. However, South Indian cuisine has all of this and so much more to offer. The team at Savya Rasa have travelled extensively across Southern India, researching and learning from local cooks, chef, grandmothers and housewives. These years of research have culminated in a menu that brings to patrons� authentic dishes from eight regions, each with their distinct culturalidentities. 

The southern states stretch from the northern borders of Karnataka that touch Maharashtra down to the quiet backwaters of Kerala, to the temple towns of Tamil Nadu and up its beaches into the highly under explored state of Andhra Pradesh. The team of Savya Rasa travelled the length and breadth of South India and selected, to showcase, some of the unique and exquisite cuisines namely Kongunadu, Chettinad, Malabar, Nasrani, Mangalore, Mysuru and Nellore.Cooks were identified from the toddy shops of Kottayam to small restaurants in Karaikudi to messes in Nellore. A year of training, sharing of ideas, andhard work led to the carefully put together menu that one now sees at the restaurant 

To come to Savya Rasa is to walk into a South Indian home. The staffs are trained to be guides and warm hosts taking you on a journey through Southern India. This is a journey that transcends time and is filled with commissioned art, old artefacts, furniture,architectural elements and above all, rustic and traditional home-style South Indian food. Savya Rasa blends understated luxury with the warmth of South Indian culture and cuisine.

Over the last four years, Savya Rasa prides itself in giving an unmatched experience showcasing the cuisine and culture of Southern India. Savya Rasa is a first of its kind dining experience that celebrates the epicurean journey of South India. Created with the intent of offering guests fine dine with exclusivity, their existence is about the re-creation of traditional cuisines and bringing them to a wider audience.

�Through, Savya Rasa we have been able to bring to the table a unique regional Southern Indian food from the Hinterland. The availability of diverse and vast cuisine offering ranging from the spicy Guntur Kodi to the more subtle and flavourful Ishtew from Kerala makes Savya Rasa a culinary destination unlike any other. Our constant focus on researching recipes/techniques used by housewives, grandmothers in small hamlets of Southern Indian states is what keeps the menu at Savya Rasa forever interesting and unique. To maintain authenticity and flavour, spice mixes for different dishes are blended from spices grown in our own farm in Coimbatore. We feel that our endeavour of celebrating South Indian cuisine is being accomplished as over the years, we have been consistently recognised as the best restaurant in the city on various platforms�, says Japtej Ahluwalia, Co-Founder & Director Pricol Gourmet.

ABOUT�CHEF SHEIK MOHIDEEN�

Brand chef for the most awarded South Indian fine-dine restaurant in India, Savya Rasa. 

Cuisine Focus: Southern Indian Cuisine. 

The culinary artist believes in tracing back the roots and recreating them just as originals by carrying out the almost impossible task of preserving the culture through each recipe. The cuisine at Savya Rasa defines authenticity at its best; a careful and detailed study of Southern Indian culinary taking you back to medieval times; incomplete without the finesse and authenticity that Chef Sheik brings with him. 

Sheik was disposed to the culinary arts from a very young age and pursued B.Sc. in Hotel Management from Cherraans Arts and Science College. While growing up he would often help his mother while cooking. The Avarai Paruppu Sadam, one of the signature dishes at Savya Rasa, is made with the recipe passed down to the chef from his mother. While it may look simple, the detailing and thoroughness that goes into each dish would tell you why Chef Sheik is considered the most prodigious.

While he was in college he was a part of a research team for developing recipes for Kongunadu cuisine under the tutelage of Chef Jacob. The project allowed him to discover his hidden desire and talent in curating menus by rediscovering forgotten and lost traditions and cultures. After graduation he was employed as a Hotel Operational Trainee at the Ambassador Pallava in Chennai for a year and then moved on as the South Indian CDP in charge at the Welcom Hotel in Vadodara. In 2008 he grabbed a great opportunity to work with Chef Jacob, his idol, at Jacob�s Kitchen in Chennai and honed his skills in South Indian cooking. Over the next five years working with Chef Jacob, his passion for regional South Indian cuisine developed and Sheik began to experiment and compile recipes.His 15 year extensive culinary journey speaks volumes about him as he continues to passionately set milestones with new projects, with each passing day.
