Sunrise in Siruvani: A peek into Tamil culture and Kongunadu cuisine
The picturesque Western Ghats bathed in pastel pink hues at twilight, and an absolute calm form our first impression of Dvara Siruvani. Before we get to the property, which is an hour's drive from the city, we stop by for a satisfying lunch at Rasanai with Kongu kozhi thanni rasam, a fiery chicken soup, followed by a line-up of chicken biryani, and the impressive Sivaji Nagar military hotel mutton chops, rounded off with mango pudding for dessert. Once at Dvara, I sip my welcome drink and watch the mighty hills and the forests take on a many colours. There are 16 cottages that include mountain view, private infinity pools and garden view. Each cottage is named after native flowers likekonrai, vaagai, parijatham to name a few. I bow down to enter my cottage named Kurunji through an artistically carved door that once graced a Chettiar home in Karaikudi. Short in stature, such doors encouraged the tradition of bowing while entering a home to show its inhabitants respect and humility. A private garden opens into stunning views of the Western Ghats and copious waters of the Noyyal flowing into the Mundanthurai check dam. Heirloom furniture including a wooden poster bed, Tanjore glass paintings and aesthetic artefacts compliment the interiors. An infinity plunge pool adds to the luxury. 'The property was a bit of an accident,' recalls Vikram Mohan, chairman of Pricol group that runs Dvara. 'The property evolved from a desiliting project to an outbound training centre with tents. Later, my wife Lakshmi and I developed Dvara as a labour of love. We both are collectors of South Indian antiquities for many years, from old Kanjivaram saris and Ravi Varma prints to old vengalapitalapathram, kadarams, thengaithuruvis and kavadis. Our bed runners feature paaavadai davani designs in multiple colours. Lakshmi's collection of her grandmother's saris became the beds' backdrop. We celebrate all things South Indian, Tamil heritage and conceptualised the property as a throwback to visiting homes in villages complete with Kongunadu samayal.' Every corner at the property unravels cultural memorabilia. Old utensils, South Indian antique artefacts, Tanjore paintings and enamelware peek through the common areas that have an old world charm. An antique chest at the reception is stunning. 'Some of the urulis displayed bear the cross on them indicating that they have been used in Christian households to make payasam. We added details like ergonomically designed thinnai, oonjal, and vilakkumaadam to replicate village life. While the doors tell stories of humility and a method of self-defence, the AshtaMangalam mural is indicative of qualities one needs to have to lead a good quality life. There is abundant greenery and the entire landscaping credit goes to my wife. We added Pollachi rekla vandi, and terracotta horses (crafted by a potter from Tirunelveli) to the garden decor. It's more like a virunthombal experience.' At dinner time, Chef Arul and his team lay out fluffy idiyappamidlis and creamy chicken stew. After a round of sulaimani, we call it a day. At the crack of dawn, along with M Rajesh, an in-house naturalist, we walk past bougainvillea and jasmine blooms, yellow trumpet trees and Rangoon creepers with red flower clusters for a trek to the foothills of the Western Ghats. Along the way, we spot a purple sunbird, an Oriental darter sunbathing with its wings spread out on a tree top, while the colourful Indian Pita whistles away and the common hawk-cuckoo sings repetitively. Lunch at Aarogyam, the in-house restaurant, showcases delicious Kongu cuisine. We try the aromatic Keeranur chicken biryani, bun parotta with Kongunadu mutton kuzhambu and vethalai poondu saadam, short grain rice flavoured with betel leaves and fried garlic. As a culinary anthropologist, Vikram has been studying the history of food of Peninsular India and that's how he introduced Kongu cuisine. 'It's all about the nuances of flavours. For example, betel leaf has a strong taste and how that imparts a dish or garlic when it's slightly roasted without curry. In Pollachi mutton kuzhambu, the flavouring comes from drumstick used in the curry. In villages around Karur, there is sorakkai thattaipayir saadam eaten with vaalaithanduthayir pachadi,' explains Vikram adding that he also picked recipes like asari kozhi varuval, endemic to the region. 'There is something called porial podi made with six ingredients like coriander seeds, fenugreek, dry chillies, channa dal, urad dal, and a hint of black pepper, coarsely ground. A pinch of asafoetida gives the umami flavour.' After a relaxing foot massage at the spa, I sit by the thinnai and gaze at the mountains, content and happy To know more, visit or call 7339111222

SUBCON 2025 offers new business opportunities for MSMEs in Coimbatore
SUBCON 2025, a a sub-contracting expo that connects MSMEs and large industries in Coimbatore, offers an opportunity for the Micro, Small and Medium-scale Enterprises (MSMEs) to know more about value-added products that they can supply for large industries, say the organisers of the event. As many as 17 large industries and 230 MSMEs are taking part in SUBCON 2025, displaying their products in 250 stalls. Vanitha Mohan, chairperson of Pricol, inaugurated the ninth edition of the three-day expo, organised by the Coimbatore District Small Industries Association, here on Wednesday. Over 10,000 visitors are expected to visit the fair that has exhibitors from Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, Puducherry, and Telangana putting up stalls. The exhibition this year has seen a rise of 8 % - 10% in participation. J. Sanjeevi Kumar, chairman of SUBCON 2025, said the engineering sector in Coimbatore is currently facing a slowdown and the MSME unit owners have an opportunity to get more orders through the fair without travelling to other cities. At least 60 % of the MSMEs in Coimbatore are indirect suppliers to large industries. They have an opportunity and scope to become direct suppliers and get into value added products. 'If the MSME unit has a quality product, it can become a direct supplier to a large unit without any hassle,' he said. The number of visitors is expected to go up on Saturday and Sunday. The event is supported by the Ministry of MSME, PPDC, NSIC, FaMeTN, COSISSIA Defence Innovation and Atal Incubation Centre (CDIIC), NITI Aayog and Atal Innovation Mission (AIM).
