Ven Pongal (white pongal) is considered auspicious in Brahmin households and is offered as prasad in temples across South India. Made from rice and moong dal cooked together until creamy, then tempered with generous ghee, black pepper, cumin and cashews. Our pongal is rich, comforting and deeply satisfying.

Pongal is offered to the gods first — when you eat it at Shastrys Cafe, you taste the same purity.
