Food That Tells a Story
From slow-cooked curries and fragrant biryanis layered with whole spices, to chargrilled tandoori sizzlers and crisp, golden pakoras and chaats, every dish on our menu is rooted in generations of South Indian home cooking. Our vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are just as celebrated as the rest — because South Indian food was always built this way.
Two Sisters, One Kitchen
We are the Reddy sisters seven years apart, with very different tastes, but one shared belief: if we both love a dish, it's something truly special. Tinge of Turmeric is where our family's recipes and our love of South Indian cooking come together, here in Playa de las Américas.
