On this tour, we travel across the city of Madurai, to taste the best culinary dishes the city has to offer. We drive around in a car to eat the best signature dishes of our local eateries and also walk along the streets to indulge ourselves in uninhibited eating spree. You will get to taste some unique "madurai" dishes, such as paruthipaal (cotton seed milk), thennam kuruthu (bark of the coconut tree), bun parotta, the super delicious Jil Jil Jigar Thanda etc.

We had great day touring local food stops. I was very appreciative the guide let me guide the experience vs forcing us to do everything on her list
I also appreciated that she provided a list of other places and things to eat for the rest of the trip. Highly recommend to anyone interested in discovering the food of Madurai.

A wonderful first experience with South Indian cuisine! All of the foods and drinks were delicious - our favorites were the chicken 65, masala milk, and many of the sauces for dipping. Jafreen was an excellent guide, so nice and personable. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone, especially those that aren’t as adventurous in venturing out on their own.
