The food culture of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep is heavily influenced by their coastal location and the diverse local communities.
The islands’ culinary offerings prominently feature seafood, with dishes like grilled fish, crab curry, and prawn malai cooked in aromatic coconut milk and spices. The indigenous communities contribute to the rich culinary traditions with unique preparations that include root vegetables and local fruits. In Lakshadweep, dishes such as masala fish and tender lamb biryani reflect the influence of Middle Eastern and coastal Indian flavors.

Our three-week trip with our five-year-old son took us first through the tropical south in Kerala and then along the 'Golden Triangle' in the north, including detours to several national parks. This enabled us to get to know two parts of the country that were very different in terms of culture and landscape and to experience at least some of India's diversity. We will always remember the impressions of the lives of the people and nature. Despite the intense experiences, we were able to relax thanks to the accommodations (oasis of peace) that were well-selected by the travel agent. The conversations with our two drivers and the people in the host families were enriching. We hardly came across any Western families. With a little travel experience, however, even small children are no obstacle to traveling to this exciting country.
