This review has been due for almost a month now..... We were checking out places to stay in Coorg, we ran across a number of places from Orange County to Red Earth to what not!!!!! We decided on Kabbe based on references and thank god we stuck to references for KABBE IS HEAVEN ON EARTH. The GPS will take you to Kabbe and then you can bid your phones good bye for the trip as there is absolutely no need for them, Vidya Aunty and Dileep Uncle at Kabbe more than make up for it..... They can discuss stuff from teenagers to oldies......... We rached Kabbe by road after takin a train to Mysore from Chennai - takes about a couple of hrs+ to reach Kabbe from Mysore. We landed in Kabbe to be welcomed by the best hosts(Vidya Aunty & Dileep Uncle) on the planet - Warm, Caring, Welcoming.............. The biggest gift they gave us is having their home stay at a spot where there is no phone coverage and next best thing was the fact that there were no tv's........... Jus when we thought things could get no better THE FOOD was laid out....... OH MY GOD!!!! though am not too big a foodie I gorged on auntie's food from the Chutney with Ghee and Honey to the Akki Oti to the pork curry to the BBQ chicken, BRILLIANT is just not enough to mention as to how good it was, Also please try to get the KFC (Kabbe Fried Chicken) Recipe from Aunty - something we could not achieve. Not to forget that we had an opportunity to meet their younger son, Dev..... Just like Uncle, Dev is also great fun but since hez at college he gives his darshan only to lucky groups like ours.
Activities - Spending time with Aunty and Uncle is an awesome experience, Uncle took us on the trek to the Kabbe Hill which is a step away from Kerala...... The trek is a must for everyone the view and the time up on the hill is spectacular and left us with many memories. There is an adventure sport area, which is about 2 Kms from Kabbe - worth a visit.
Sadly, the trip was over before we could wink, We had to say good bye to Uncle and Aunty who became like family to us and our group was almost in tears while saying bye and made this a very emotional moment for all of us.
We have never come across such a beautiful place with wonderful people, on this trip we forgot all our work pressures and became energized for the journey ahead........ This trip proved to be a major stress buster - we would all credit the reason to "KABBE Holidays"
KABBE Holidays is a major reason in getting our group together and making us become a lot closer.
It will be criminal if i don't thank Vidya Aunty for the wonderful cake she baked for my wife's birthday, A priceless moment that we would never forget
Let me finish off by saying - KABBE is definitely the place where holidays are made..........
