Jamee’s Tastories

There is a story behind every dish


Jameela holds stories in her mind. Stories that she heard from her childhood at Karimbayil family home in Atholi, Kozhikode and now sharing with her grandchildren. To those stories, Jameela adds one secret ingredient before she passes them on. Something that she only can do. A pinch of love.
She does that to every dish that she cooks. Right from the time she thinks about the dish, the story begins to form. Right ingredients. Best flavours. In right measures. And just before it is served, Jameela garnishes it with a pinch of love.

Because, there is a story behind every dish that Jameela makes.

Jamee’s Kitchen Flavoured with Love

There is something for everyone. There are many options for dishes, but only one Jameela, the maker of tastories. There is only one kitchen.

Kuppiyile Kadha (Story in a Bottle)

Once upon a time, there was a genie. It was stuck in a bottle. It remained there for many centuries. Then, Jameela opened the bottle and released it. The genie of unique flavour. It is there in every bottle that leaves Jamee’s Kitchen.

Malabari Kissa (Stories of Malabar)

When the family gathers, Jameela starts to weave stories. Picking the right ingredient from her childhood memory, adding on her flavour, brewing it for the right period, till the scent of unique dishes waft across the room, across the home, across the land and spread wings. They are stories of Malabar. Only Jameela can tell these stories.

Post Script: You have to tell her in advance, or else she will not make these stories. Every story is custom made. She signs them with her unique touch.

Malabarinte Pattu (Song of Malabar)

Days and nights of Malabar have got unique charm. The breeze soothes like a beloved. Moonlight flows like an uninterrupted song about love. The same feel is captured by the aroma of biriyani and other main courses from Jamee’s Kitchen. No one stops at one, the songs continue. One after another. Just listen. The celebration has just begun.
