spice inspired journey of kerala

Kerala has been known for centuries as the “Land of Spices,” drawing traders and explorers from around the world to its shores. The region’s tropical climate, fertile soil, and monsoon rains create the perfect conditions for growing some of the world’s most treasured spices

Black pepper, often called “Black Gold,” has its roots deeply embedded in Kerala’s history. Alongside pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, turmeric, and ginger have shaped not only global trade routes but also the distinctive flavours of Kerala’s cuisine.

At Tropikal Cruise, this heritage continues on your plate. Our dishes are inspired by these time-honoured spice traditions, offering flavours that are rich, comforting, and authentically Kerala.

Backwater - signature catch

The Pearl Spot, locally known as Karimeen, is one of Kerala’s most celebrated backwater fishes. Found in the calm, brackish waters of the region, this delicacy is prized for its tender texture and rich, distinctive flavour.

Its connection to the backwaters makes it more than just a dish — it is a flavour deeply rooted in the landscape and culture of the region.

Kerala’s fertile soil and tropical climate allow a wide variety of fresh, flavourful vegetables to grow throughout the year. These ingredients form the heart of traditional home-style cooking in the region.
From tender drumsticks and ash gourd to snake gourd, pumpkin, okra, raw banana, yam, and leafy greens, Kerala cuisine celebrates vegetables that are seasonal, nutritious, and naturally grown. Coconut, curry leaves, turmeric, and mild spices enhance their flavour while keeping the dishes wholesome and balanced.
At Tropikal Cruise, we use locally sourced fresh vegetables to prepare authentic dishes that are light, healthy, and rooted in Kerala’s culinary traditions.
