In coming up with her second restaurant, Meriam Alfonso decided to go down a slightly different route.

Her first eatery Kayra, a traditional Kerala-style restaurant inspired by her roots in the south Indian state and her family’s culinary pedigree (her grandparents opened a Kerala restaurant in Johor Baru in 1949), had become a neighbourhood success after it first opened three years ago in Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur.
