On the 4th day of my road trip across Kerala, I visited a town called 'Vazhakulam' which falls in the Ernakulam district of Kerala. This town is known as the 'Pineapple City of India' due to its large-scale pineapple farms. Vazhakulam also has the largest market for pineapple in Asia. The pineapples from Vazhakulam have also got a geographic indication.
Toddy & Local Food - After visiting the famous pineapple market and centre, I also went to try the famous local drink of Kerala called Toddy. Toddy is a famous alcoholic beverage in Kerala which is prepared directly from palm trees in the area by Toddy tapping! It’s completely organic and it can get intoxicating only when you have it in excessive quantity - well! at least that's what I have been told :). I went to a shop to have Toddy, which is quite a famous one near cochin. I also tried the seafood there. Loved the fish cooked in banana leaves and also the prawns.
Kumbalangi - After trying Toddy and having loads of seafood, I went to a village called Kumbalangi which is the first eco-tourism village in India. The main occupation of the people of Kumbalangi is fishing. You will find hundreds of Chinese fishing nets sites in the backwaters of Kerala in this village. This village is well-connected by road to Kochi and you can either take a bus or cab to reach here. I would say you must visit Kumbalangi whenever you visit Kerala :)
