These days are great occasions for all Keralites world over – as their favourite Onam festival has arrived. Chennai is also celebrating Onam in its own ways.
There were two dedicated Onam special shopping festivals in Chennai. One was at Valluvarkottam for 3 days from 5th Sept to 7th. We visited the place. Apart from the traditional snacks and condiments, there were several food stalls selling traditional payasams ( Ada, parippu prathaman, pal-ada, pal-payasam), many shops were selling traditional fares like Appam – stew, Puttu – kadala, Kozhukkatta, ela-ada, kappa, Banana chips, chakka varuthathu ( jackfruit chips ), Biryani, Halwa, Kerala sarees, dry fruits etc. A notable feature this year was a multiplicity of stalls selling real – estate, house-boat / home stay and insurance products reflecting the changing business environment in Kerala.
The second venue was at Kerala Samajam, Poonamallee high road, Chennai – ongoing – till 12th Sept which is in a much smaller scale than that at Valluvarkottam.
