A dream from South India
It was Kris Ramamoorthy’s dream of bringing his native vegetarian south Indian cuisine to The Netherlands. Being in the inbound tourism business, he believed that authentic food from Karnataka & Tamil Nadu in South India, would appeal to both the local palate as well as his customers visiting the country.
A chance meeting with Chennai based Ananthakumar Rengasamy (Anand) provided the means to translate his ideas into reality. Anand an entrepreneur with multiple business interests, also owns and runs a classic South Indian restaurant and has been doing so for over four decades in Chennai. The combination of Kris’s ideation and Anand’s knowledge of the business led to the founding of Krishna Vilas in 2018.
Our Growth Story
Krishna Vilas quickly gained a reputation for providing an authentic vegetarian culinary experience inspired by the vibrant traditions of South India. With our three branches in the Netherlands and one in Luxembourg, we have witnessed a growing demand and an ever-increasing passion for our delectable vegetarian fare cutting across communities both local and the Indian diaspora.A chance meeting with Chennai based Ananthakumar Rengasamy (Anand) provided the means to translate his ideas into reality.
