Kari-meen Pollichathu at B6 (Non veg)


Well, this is the first dish which I liked very much here. Myself and my team mates went to B6 one day for lunch. I don't have to tell where B6 restaurant is! Every techparkian knows it. But for newbies here: It is right opposite to technopark front gate :).
Everyone ordered the usual chicken fry and chicken biriyani(yuk...the biryani here, I hate the most). I selected kari-meen pollichathu( for its strange name!) for starter. But it was yummy, spicy and hot. I've heard fish the traditional food of kerala but I realized it only after having kari-meen pollichathu. Keralites are the specialists in cooking fish.
Fish is grilled after enveloped in a sprig of curry leaf on a banana leaf. It is served with the leaf cover along with lime and salad in a hot tawa. You have to un cover the leaf to taste your kari-meen. Once if you taste it, you'll feel as if you're opening a greeting card from your loved one while un-covering the leaf!
And I warn you! be careful with the tawa! It'll be too hot, I boiled my hands twice :(.
Believe me, it is worth giving a try. And it'll be available only during lunch time.
