It's been a year being back in Trivandrum, Kerala after almost a decade. Although, there has been quite a few changes in the #food scene, not much has changed too from my college days. For all those who will pass by or new, here goes a list! Don't go by my bad photos or none.
Is it toddy first or food first? Never thought there could be that dilemma: Punchakkari Toddy Shop. Add on a quiet time by Vellayani lake. What more do you want? 
For just the ambience: Bait Kovalam (@TajHotels), sandwiched between waters.
Over the past 4 months, we’ve conducted Mastermind Kerala 1.0 over Zoom.
One of the topics chosen in the final heat of the event was this: Movie Theatres in Kerala.
Here’s a thread on interesting info I found while setting these questions.

1. The first permanent movie theatre in #Kerala was set up in #Thrissur by Kattookkaran Varunny Joseph (as Jos Bioscope Projections), following his bioscope shows at #ThrissurPooram. It exists today as Jos Theatre in the heart of the city in the Round.
2. One of the projectors used by Joseph was exhibited for a long time at #Sapna in Thrissur, a theatre founded by his family. It was finally handed over to the Kerala State Chalachitra Academy in 2020. Sapna, incidentally, took life as Rama Varma theatre in the 1930s.
Some of #Trivandrum's road side walls are now decorated with cartoons to create awareness about #Covid19. Here is a thread on this. 👇.

It was in Jan 2008 that Uber founder Travis Kalanick and team spent weeks coding on #Varkala #Beach near #Trivandrum. (gadgetsnow.com/tech-news/Gues…)

Now with the advancement in internet connectivity and other facilities, beaches here continue to attract coders and #startup founders from all over the world as we can see foreigners glued on to laptop screens at the food joints near the beaches of Varkala & Kovalam.

Kalanick's story is now a prominent slide in some of the destination marketing decks for Trivandrum & has helped Trivandrum to attract romantic glances from some of the MNCs & global startups (Some of them are already here or are in the process of taking a final call).
