 Textile shop in ernakulam by PierreZA
Silk and other textiles Theme: Local Craft

Hand made men and women's casual wear. I have been wearing NX's clothes for years. He gets orders from Australia and USA.. from satisfied clients and they want him to ship.. because you can have a handmade shirt of good cotton quality at low prices, in fact it would cost more to ship it..
stop by NX Jacob.. the versace of Cochin
Ask him.. Etrenam? which is Malayalam for How Much? and he would say a figure like 95, reduce it by a few rupees and buy a couple more, think of your friends at home wanting a bright indian cotton shirt...
about 2 us dollars or 100 rupees per item, whether shirt or skirt or pareu. Leave a Comment Theme: Men's ClothesDirections: walk past the kashmiris selling carpets and as you enter the jew town just before the post office you would see nx jacob tailor sign. there is a shoe maker right in front, he is not bad either, makes good sandals

 Spice shop, Ernakulam market by IoannaE
Star anise, huge blades of mace, big strips of cinnamon, fresh black pepper, big red chillis and exotica like kodampoli (a souring agent used in Kerala dishes - can replace lemon juice or tamarind).
Saffron and cardamom are expensive. Compare prices and bargain – traders know what an attraction their spices are to foreigners.
Buy saffron strands, not powdered saffron - it’s always adulterated. Leave a Comment Theme: Food and DrinkAddress: Broadway street and side streetsDirections: Between MG road and the seafront.

There are 2 branches of this book store in Fort Cochin. One off Napier Street and the other just as you enter Jew Town.
This book store has a fantastic range of books on India, and especially Kerala.
Worth visiting!

Along the pathway to the St. Francis church you'll find loads of stalls with local craft and artworks as there are peacock feather fans (!!! you may not export them), beautifully handmade postcards, normal postcards with nice local views, casual dress, statues, local jewelry, etc. etc.
As usual don't forget the bargaining. Leave a Comment Theme: Local Craft
