Fabulously healthy and tasty meals. We had the thali. It started with vendayam (fenugreek) coffee and kezhvaragu (Ragi) laddu. Both were tasty and whetted our appetite for the main plate. That had thinai (foxtail millet), noolkol (turnip), fresh salad with carrots, cabbage & sprouted moong dal, ellu (sesame) chutney and kara kozhambu (not very spicy). We also had a bowl of red rice and moong dal with Karivepilai (spicy curry leaf powder) podi. We finished the meal with regular coffee made with coconut milk and jaggery. The food was fresh and refreshing. The tastes popped on our tongues. The whole meal left us refreshed. The service is very friendly. The ambiance while simple is clean. The people serving were always willing to answer questions.

Maiyam, for us, was a place of discovery and revelation. When in our city life all that we encounter are fast foods, a board that says past foods aroused our curiosity. It was amazing to see how healthy and traditional recipes are being brought to life. For me and my husband, this was food 'NEVER EATEN BEFORE' and we loved the experience. While the owner did try to explain the ingredients patiently and even the method of cooking, our sheer lack of knowledge is to be blamed for us not really understanding most of it. one of these days, I am going back to learn it all! Till then, keep up the awesome work you do, people at Maiyam!

I visited this restaurant last year. It’s one of the best restaurant in Auroville if you want to try something authentic.I was remembering how good this restaurant was, so decided to right a few words here.
