Chai Kaari, originally started by a women entrepreneur for the Chai and Idli Lovers community and now spreads into franchises across the Trivandrum district. Chai kaari in Malayalam “ചായക്കാരി” translate to “Tea Lady” in English. They mainly serve traditionally made Chai in steel cups or paper cups with butter Idli. My review to Chai Kaari.
@abrahamjoseph236 had Butter Ghee podi idli with Tea without Milk at Chai kaari.
Abraham Joseph is a Foodie Local Guide and I stumbled upon his review on Chaikaari. I met him during my first meetup at Trivandrum.

If there were a badge for decent small business discovery, that would go to you, dear @Rahul001
Although the word Kaari is also present in Marathi, the meaning is completely different. In Marathi, Kaari or Kahri means the pattis or crispy bread that goes with the tea.
In fact, we visited a place with the same name in Pune during our meetup at the Fire Station.
Our tradition is using fingers and palm of our hand for eating. Unless there is a necessary to use spoon, I use my hand @Rahul001. Very informative post and the challenge properly taken.
Thank you so much, @Rahul001, for your thoughtful post on the Chai Pe Charcha & Ditch Plastic Spoons Challenge!
Your discovery of Chai Kaari, a women-led tea spot embracing sustainable practices, is truly commendable. It’s heartening to see establishments using biodegradable options like wooden spoons.
I appreciate you participating in the #NoPlasticSpoon challenge and for highlighting the eco-friendly cutlery in your Google Maps review. Your efforts contribute significantly to promoting sustainable dining practices.
