We Will Blend kalamata tradition with indian flavors

At MYLO Street Indian Cuisine, we see gastronomy as a dialogue between cultures.
For this reason, our menu brings together the vibrant flavors of India with selected traditional dishes from Kalamata.

We chose to include local dishes because:

  • Kalamata has warmly welcomed Indian cuisine, and we proudly honor the place that hosts us.

  • Local ingredients — from PDO olive oil to fresh herbs — are exceptional and deserve to shine.

  • Combining Messinian and Indian traditions reflects today’s global fusion trend and makes our menu truly unique.
  • Supporting local recipes promotes sustainability and strengthens small producers.
  • Our philosophy — creativity rooted in tradition — is one of the reasons TripAdvisor named us among the top 25 restaurants in Greece.

 

This fusion is not simply a choice; it’s our signature.

MYLO Indian & Ethnic Cousin

The culture of Indian cuisine in Stoupa, West Mani

Indian cuisine has influenced cuisines all over the world and no doubt it is very close to Greek eating habits because the staple foods it uses are fresh vegetables, rice, lentils, wholemeal flour, beans, peas, chickpeas and in meats (chicken, beef, lamb), less fish and shrimp.

Famous Chefs from all over the world inspired by the flavours and aromas of Indian cuisine, from the spicy and the spices like turmeric or curry to accompany the sauces, chicken or rice, they have managed to integrate it into Western food culture

but there is another similarity with Greek cuisine...

Indians, like Greeks, treat food as a ritual, respect the ingredients, have a long culinary history and observe tradition.

NOTE

Indian food doesn't necessarily mean spicy, you decide the intensity of the food.

Α gastronomical journey

In India cooking is considered an art, each ingredient is added at the right time to give it the right taste and aroma.   Their meals have a lot of spices where the exotic and intoxicating flavours of their dishes are due to them.
