FRANCO TAMIL CUISINE: A LOVE AFFAIR BETWEEN TWO CULTURES!

Whether it’s the serenity of Auroville where you can decode your inner workings or the coastline that invites you to chill out as you sip on a cocktail and watch the endless pattern of the waves crashing on the coast and going back. The Arts & Crafts Village is a delight to explore and one can watch pottery being made, learn to make small handicrafts, pick up handmade trinkets and knick-knacks and more.

Pondicherry’s tryst with the French still lingers in the bylanes. A charm that blends together two unique cultures French and Tamil. Besides, co-existing, there has come about an interesting development where both borrowed culinary ideas from each other resulting in an exciting new Franco Tamil cuisine.

We caught up with Chef Palwinder Singh, Executive Chef, Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay to get his take on this unique cuisine that they serve with flourish to their patrons.
