Deliciously Festive
With its glorious culinary variety and melange of dining-out options, South India is deli-
ciously rewarding. From traditional southern favourites such as
idlis
(fermented rice
cakes) and large papery dosas (savoury crepes) to a mix of inventive fusion creations,
there's certainly no dearth of choice for the hungry traveller. Food has also long played a
prominent role in many of the region's festivals, with temptingly colourful
mithai
(sweets)
more often than not taking centre stage.
