Chestnut Curry and Autumn in the Hills with Babajis

The Dandenong Mountains are alive in autumn, a riot of colour as the leaves and chestnuts fall. Homemade market stalls manned by entrepreneurial local kids, line the streets reminding all of their own childhoods.

Proudly calling the Dandenong Mountains, ‘home’ is award winning South Indian cooks, Babajis Kerala Kitchen, who will cook up their famous spicy chestnut curry – For one weekend only! The weekend of the Kalorama Chestnut Festival.

It’s a weekend the ‘Hills community’ comes together – to celebrate the best of the mountain – hail or shine. Enjoy chestnut-inspired stalls, mulled wine, an arts market and local musicians.

Experience Babajis Chestnut Curry at either the Kalorama Chestnut Festival, Mount Dandenong Tourist Rd, Kalorama or at Babajis Kerala Kitchen’s restaurant in Belgrave.
