Kerala has a large costal line on the West and mountains towards the East. The central part is covered with a large area of back waters where ducks are in abundance.

A nostalgic and the most favorite dish at Shop are the Frog Leg fries. Decades back Toddy Shop’s in Kerala without frog leg fries were out of question. But, now due to the implementation of endangered species law in India have wiped out this delicacy from our plates. We at Northampton source the Frog Legs from Vietnam where its legal to catch and export and use our traditional masala marination to get them fried. So, in simple words anyone in Kerala who crave for this extinct dish must travel all the way from India to Northampton to taste them again! 6 piece frog leg deep fry.
