Amazing local health food shop and restaurant

Really worth a visit. Traditional local health shop and health food restaurant selling lots of natural items. They make uncooked food (technically not fully raw though, they use flattened rice, pooha, for instance). Great selection of juices, plant milks and milkshakes, using traditional local ingredients you won't find anywhere else. The raw soups are great and they have some funky salads too.
It's very affordable, this is not a tourist place, it's a real local place.
Not 100% vegan, they use honey.
Staff is sometimes not very helpful and a bit grumpy, they don't speak English very well, so you don't always know exactly what you are ordering.

Pros: Super affordable, Traditional local mostly raw ingredients , Original menu

Cons: Use honey , Staff is a bit unfriendly and unhelpful at times.

Raw vegan food at normal India prices

Came here expecting it to be a fancy place for Western tourists and found a no frills grocery with a few tables in the middle.

Dishes are priced at regular Indian prices
(20 Idly, 25 Sprout Salad, 100 Thali)
Not the fastest service or most organized staff
but friendly and tasty, healthy foo.

IMO not all traditional India dishes translate exactly to raw versions....Idly aren't fluffy but dense and solid, rice dishes have a totally different consistency... but they're all worth trying.

Pros: vegan and raw, healthy, cheap

Cons: portions on the small size, seating in the middle of a shop, can feel hectic

Disappointing

Everything on the menu appeared to be vegan, but the shop certainly isn't. So be weary of this.
Customer service isn't their strong point. We ordered an idly and vegetable wrap. The idlys never turned up and when we asked about it they said they hadn't made a note of it. So we cancelled the idlys (as we'd been waiting quite a while) and asked for the bill. After waiting again for a very long time, they told us we were to pay at the desk.
We were the only customers and i went with my friend who spoke Tamil to them, so i'm not sure why there was so much confusion. The food that did arrive left a lot to be desired.
Despite it being the only "vegan" place in town, i won't be returning.

Pros: Cheap

Cons: Rude staff

More Shop Than Restaurant

Great place to find interesting health foods, snacks, supplements and books on Yoga, Health foods, Feng Shui, Meditation, Auto-urine Therapy (if you're into that).

The food is mostly raw vegan, apart from idlis and dosas which are prepared in a way that is unique to this place. I recommend the herbal juice.

Pros: Unique health food items, Interesting food

Cons: Very small portions, Slightly expensive

Energy Home Cafe and Health Store

This is the best raw food restaurant in S. India. The food is all organic and uncooked. All grain served are sprouted then soaked. The nut milks are to die for. The food is Indian spiced and just so delicious.
The prices are unbelievably low. This place is heaven...

Pros: food, value, local flavor spices

Cons: must remove shoes, floor not spotless
