Try out the Malabar cuisine at the Radisson to know what those early traders left behind
Itu00a0was around 3000 BC when Arab traders crossed the borders to do business with our forefathers. They were not the nicest of men, but were food freaks and left behind some nice influences that enthrall us till date.

And when any food talk veers towards spices, one thing I am always reminded of is Malabar cuisine that has been considerably influenced by the scent of Arabia. Though you won't find many good joints offering coastal cuisine in the city, apart from the few traditional south Indian joints, I have always had a weakness for that kind of food, especially from the Malabar region. And I don't let go of any opportunity to dig into my favourite cuisine. And for those, who like me, can go anywhere anytime in the pursuit of their favorite food, 'Made in India', a food festival by Radisson, MBD, Noida is one great option to explore for a taste of the best.u00a0u00a0u00a0
