Anuradha Shankar

Anuradha Shankar is a mother, traveller, freelance writer, compulsive bookworm.. not necessarily in that order. She lives in Mumbai and aims to travel as much as she can across the country, 11 year old son in tow. Her blog "A Wandering Mind" is primarily a travel blog, but true to its name it wanders all the time - from events to random thoughts, book reviews to her son"s latest peccadilloes

Originally a godown, this ancient building has been renovated, and part of it is used as a café, part of it was used as an art gallery for the Kochi-Muziris Biennale, and one whole section is used as a repository of books―mostly on art, the personal collection of noted artist Bose Krishnamachari. One huge room houses the books while another, an impressive collection of DVDs. This room also has TVs and DVD players available with headphones, so visitors can watch what they want, in peace! Besides, the café also serves great food.

Note:
Pepper House Café is on Kalvathi Road, between Fort Kochi and Bazaar road. You will pass this way when you visit Mattancherry.
