About Oottupura

About Oottupura


Oottupura, literally means, "The place where food is made with the soul.” In our cafe we apply a special approach daily - to cook a meal that is a tasteful delight for everyone to enjoy. Like they say "Adithi Devo Bhava.” People in India consider themselves as an embodiment of "Deva" – a God to whom they have to dedicate their human nature with all purposefulness and wholeheartedness.


Originally the word Oottupura meant an opulent dining room that could be found at the temples and mansions in India. The meals served at those places has always been recognized because of its wholesomeness, epicurean taste, unique smell, colorfulness and texture.

In our cafe we have made everything possible to bring to life the main idea that stands behind these words – “always supremely satisfy our guests.”
