Our cuisine is inspired by the ingredients in the Coorg region, the coffee hills above India’s ‘silicon city’ Bangalore. In Southern India, the countryside is some of the most fertile in the country and lush paddy fields and coconut groves make way for dense hillsides cultivated with coffee plants and pepper vines. Coorg is where founder, Navina Bartlett spent many a summer on her aunt’s coffee estate. The hillsides are home to acres of coffee bushes and there is a huge variety of plants growing in amongst the coffee. Ingredients include coconuts, bamboo, pumpkin, cardamom, oranges and chillies. www.coconutchilli.com www.facebook.com/coconutchilli www.twitter.com/coconutchilli
