Notwithstanding its impolitic name, this Chennai-based company maps Tamil Nadu in the most delicious ways. From Dindigul to Tirunelveli, Nagercoil to Palani, every town worth its weight in banana chips and murukku, halwa and mittai makes an appearance. Search and you shall find mounds of milky sweet palkova from the tiny temple town of Srivilliputhur, caramelly squares of Madurai halwa, and Raj-era Ooty varkey ‘biscuits’ to share the table with teas from the Nilgiris.
