Best Trichy Temple Town Food Tour

Welcome to Trichy, the temple city of Tamil Nadu, where food, faith, and history flow seamlessly through everyday life. In this episode, we explore the city through a veg food trail with our wonderful local hosts Sneha and Selva, discovering old establishments, sacred spaces, and beloved local favourites. We began our morning in Srirangam at Murli Coffee, one of the earliest places to open, welcoming devotees and locals as early as 4 AM. Over coffee, we learned about the spiritual and cultural significance of the Srirangam Temple and how the rhythms of the temple shape daily life in this part of the city. Our next stop was the Muniyappan Temple, where we witnessed a fascinating ritual—devotees offering cigars to the residing deity. From there, we visited the Srirangam prasad stall to see what offerings are prepared for devotees. Some items were available packed, and we tasted ven pongal. Anubhav was keen on trying sweet pongal, but it had sold out, so we went with tamarind rice instead. We then headed to Mani’s Café, a popular local spot, where we tried podi dosa and rava dosa, both simple yet deeply comforting staples. After that, we visited Ramana Iyer Sweet Stall and sampled akkaravadisal and godhumai halwa, traditional sweets with rich textures and flavours rooted in temple and festive cuisine. Lunch was at Sri Sangeetha Veg Restaurant, where we ordered a mini meal featuring paratha, curd rice, kurma, bisi bele bhat, raita, poriyal, elai parotta, and chutney—a generous spread that showcased classic South Indian comfort food. For dessert, we visited Michela and Sons Ice Cream and Cool Drinks, the oldest ice cream shop in Trichy. The place had an old-world charm, with simple interiors and small steel cups serving single scoops. We started with fruit salad ice cream but ended up trying three to four more flavours because it was that good, and incredibly pocket-friendly. We made a stop at Our Lady of Lourdes Church, a quiet and beautiful space that adds another layer to Trichy’s diverse cultural landscape. Next was Mayil Mark Mittai Kadai, famous for its boondi and Delhi halwa. We tried both and learned about how these sweets have been made and loved here for decades. We then visited Rockfort Temple, one of Trichy’s most iconic landmarks, offering stunning views and a deep sense of history layered into the city’s landscape. Back on the streets, we tried mirchi bhajji and sundal at NSB Road, a classic evening snack combination that locals swear by. After that, we headed to Akka Kadai for Kollimalai soup, a comforting herbal broth believed to have medicinal properties and widely enjoyed by people travelling from the Kolli Hills region. Dinner was at Gurukrupa Hotel, where we tried bun parotta with kurma, a rich and satisfying dish that’s a favourite across Tamil Nadu. We wrapped up our food trail with Bombay Badam Milk near Murli Coffee, a sweet, saffron-infused drink that felt like the perfect nostalgic ending to a day full of flavours. This Trichy food tour was a beautiful blend of temples, stories, old establishments, and everyday eateries that define the city’s culinary and cultural identity.
