The sprawling transparent glass house seating is the main highlight of the space that encompasses a vibrant handmade kite lighting feature suspended from the double height ceiling painting a buoyant picture of India’s spirited and multi-cultural harvest season. A tribute to the locals’ love for the heartwarming, chicory-laced brewed coffee can be seen on our beautiful kaapi wall with a collection of quintessential South Indian style coffee tumblers traditionally called, brass ‘debaras’.
