Just like any other Indian festival, Onam is incomplete without an elaborate feast. In this case, it’s the legendary Onam Sadya. The extensive vegetarian meal, characterised by 20-plus dishes, is one of the main attractions of this harvest festival. 

As Thiruvonam is upon us, scores of people (including non-Malayalis) will be stepping out to get a taste of this vibrant meal. If you are one too, you’ll be happy to know that we have done all the legwork for you.
