The Twist: Innovation with a Heritage Heart

Savor the Flavors of Tradition

For me, food has always been more than just nourishment—it’s for the soul. Growing up in my Paati’s kitchen, I learned that every dish carries love, warmth, and a story. Inspired by her timeless recipes, I, Sankar, created IDlish—a celebration of tradition with a modern twist, bringing soulful South Indian flavors to the world.

Dear Paati,
I can still hear the rhythmic hum of your grinding stone, feel the warmth of your kitchen, and smell the intoxicating aroma of your sambar bubbling away on the stove. Your kitchen wasn’t just a place it was a feeling. It was where love was kneaded into every ball of dough, where patience simmered in every pot, and where every bite told a story. Your hands worked magic, turning simple ingredients into meals that didn’t just fill our stomachs but also our hearts.

As I traveled across India, the Middle East, and Asia, I carried your flavors with me. No matter where I went, I searched for that taste the taste of home, of comfort, of you. But nothing ever came close. It was then that I realized your recipes weren’t just food; they were a legacy. A legacy that deserved to be shared, celebrated, and reimagined for the world.


That’s how IDlish was born.

At IDlish, we’ve taken your timeless recipes the ones you crafted with so much love and care and added a modern twist to make them even more special. We’ve stayed true to the authenticity of your cooking while infusing it with a touch of today’s innovation. Because your recipes aren’t just about tradition; they’re about connection. They’re about bringing people together, just like you did.

Every dish at IDlish is a tribute to you, a celebration of your love, your wisdom, and your unwavering belief that food is more than just sustenance. It’s an emotion. It’s a memory. It’s home.


So, here’s to you, Paati. Thank you for inspiring me to share your legacy with the world. And to everyone who walks through our doors, welcome to IDlish where every bite is a taste of tradition, a dash of innovation, and a whole lot of love.

I’m Meenamma, the heartbeat of IDlish. Sankar often speaks of his Paati’s kitchen, the warmth, the love, the aroma of sambar that felt like a hug. He wanted to honor her legacy, but he also knew that food, like life, must grow and evolve.

That’s where I come in.

I’m here to keep Paati’s recipes alive, to preserve the soul of her cooking. But I also add my own playful touch because food isn’t just about tradition; it’s about connection, joy, and creating memories. Whether it’s a crunchy Veg Chilli 65 that reminds you of childhood snacks, a vegan-friendly “fish” fry that surprises your palate, or a fusion dosa that feels like a celebration on a plate I craft every dish with love, for you.

At IDlish, we believe food is more than just a meal. 

 

It’s a story, a feeling, a way to bring people together. It’s about honoring where we come from while embracing where we’re headed. That’s why our table is always open to everyone.

There’s something for everyone at IDlish.

So come, sit with us. Let’s share a meal that feels like home, but with a twist that makes it unforgettable. Because great food isn’t just about tradition it’s about love, laughter, and the joy of discovering something new.
