Watch as the Michaela’s Map crew, take you on a culinary journey through the lesser-known Indian states of Kerala and Karnataka. Their journey begins following the footsteps of Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, who founded the Indian spice trade route in the 15th century. But visitors can’t miss the modern adaptations of Indian recipes by big name chefs in large cities like Bangalore, Mumbai and Delhi.
