COORG

Coorg, a monsoon paradise gives a long lasting happiness to its visitors during monsoon. The most peculiar thing about Coorg during Monsoon is its food.

Food - dried meat, fresh water fish, crab curry, home-reared chicken curry, tender bamboo shoots and madde puttu (a sweet made from a medicinal plant)

                                                 
 It’s the season of Kakkada for Coorgs.
“Kakkada koli” (chicken) is also a special delicacy in the district on this day. Monsoon is associated with several such rare occurrences in Kodagu. It is the time when mushrooms emerge from the ground. “Baimbale” (bamboo shoot) or “kanile” is the other delicacy that is enjoyed by the people of Kodagu. It is believed that “mushrooms” and “Baimbale” help balance the body temperatures during the monsoon season.
