Traditional Taste of Onam Festival

Onam is the South Indian festival celebrated by Malayalees all over the world. It is an occasion of palate-tickling food varieties.

Onam is a special festival meant for taste and traditional dishes. It is a festival celebrated for ten days, each day meant for each special dish. Thiruvonam day is the culmination day of the festival which includes maximum varieties of dishes. Rice is the main item, to be eaten with innumerable dishes. The number of such varieties makes the sadya (feast meals) most enjoyable. Most of these items are vegetarian, although nowadays in some parts in north Kerala non-vegetarian dishes are served.
