South Side in Studio

Thomas Fenn & Arun Kumar TR’s Tableside Chronicles on PODIcast | Ep 2

For our second episode of PODIcast, we’re serving up a feast with Arun Kumar T.R., a filmmaker turned award-winning chef, author of Feast On A Leaf, and a passionate custodian of Kerala’s culinary traditions.

This lively conversation spills into the wonderfully chaotic world of Kerala’s signature feasts, cinema and literature. With a dash of humour and a dollop of nostalgia, Arun Kumar T.R. (speaking of perfection), takes us through its growing popularity, the quirky regional twists, and the “table-side drama” that makes every meal a marvel. This episode is a classic blend of banter and recollections that hits just right, from Payasam to progress.

Thomas Fenn and Ruchira Hoon's INSANE Conversation on PODIcast | Ep 1

In our debut episode of Podicast we have Ruchira Hoon, owner of Dakshin Canteen with our host Thomas Fenn, owner of Mahabelly, to trace her roots, her recipe evolution, and why she chose to build a brand that feels just like home! She opens up about the early days of Dakshin, the moments that mattered and how growing up in South & North gave her the superpower of flavour intuition. From 100-plate sadhyas to the upcoming madness at South Side Story (hello, filter coffee softy), this episode’s a crash course in food, identity and finding your true spice! Also, she’s a certified fan of The Raghu Dixit Project & Avial, so you already know she’s got taste!
