Our Story

From Divya's kitchen to your table

Chai Kada began with one simple idea: bring the honest, homestyle food of Kerala and Tamil Nadu to Perth, without shortcuts.

  1. 2023

    A cloud kitchen in Harrisdale

    In late 2023 Divya started cooking Chai Kada's first biryanis and curries from a cloud kitchen in Harrisdale, one order at a time.

  2. 2025

    A home at Canning Vale

    In 2025 Chai Kada opened as a restaurant at the Canning Vale Food Court, so you can pull up a chair with a hot chai.

Why Chai Kada

Cooked the old way, on purpose

Cooked in peanut oil

Our biryani is made with peanut oil for that clean, nutty, wedding-feast flavour.

Freshly ground masalas

Ginger-garlic paste and spice blends ground fresh, never from a jar.

Homestyle recipes

Dishes cooked the way families make them at home, not the restaurant-chain version.

Authentic Kerala & Tamil flavours

Two neighbouring kitchens on one banana leaf: Malabar, Chettinad and Naadan classics.
