The cuisine of Kerala, one of India’s southernmost states, is fresh, fiery, and famous for the marine flavors of the Malabar Coast. Kerala cuisine is celebrated at Kathakali in Kirkland, a sister restaurant to Snoqualmie’s Aahaar led by co-owners Ramya Balachandran and Ajay Panicker. The seafood and vegetarian dishes are standouts: the chakka thoran dosa is perfumed and lacy, the palakkad avial is a spiced assortment of legumes, tubers, fruits, and gourds, and the tangy meen pollichathu (black bass cooked in banana leaves) is excellent. Kathakali is open for onsite and takeout dining.

This Kirkland market and restaurant led by Jamie Casady and Jordan Cooper has been doing it all since 2011: layer cake slices that can feed four, expertly assembled sandwiches with fillings like celeriac remoulade on house roast beef, and assertive salads that embrace both springy greens and herbs by the handful. DERU offers no gimmicks, just fresh bakes, vibrant produce, and delicious surprises like a mint-muddled beet soda. DERU Market is open for takeout dining only, and ordering ahead online will streamline the process.
