Kootenay Tamil Kitchen
Kootenay Tamil Kitchen is a South Indian restaurant on Nelson's main commercial street, run by Tamil immigrants who cook authentic, family-heirloom recipes — heart-healthy dishes free of butter and cream. The operation has expanded to include an Indian grocery store across the street at 639 Baker St and a neighbourhood cafe (KTK Rosemont) at 1516 Crease Avenue. Chef Ciraj's background includes eight years on US cruise lines feeding thousands of guests, making this a genuinely accomplished kitchen in a small-town setting.
This place is in the traditional territory of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, Ĩyãħé Nakón mąkóce (Stoney), Ktunaxa ɁamakɁis, snʕickstx tmxʷúlaʔxʷ (Sinixt), Syilx (Okanagan), and Cayuse, Umatilla and Walla Walla.
