Aipan

Story

Story of Aipan

The word aipan is derived from ‘arpan’ or dedication. It is a traditional art form of kumaon that originated in almora and flourished under the chand dynasty in the 11th century. Creating aipan is akin to making an offering to god. The art form and its symbols are associated with fortune and fertility. The aipan ‘likhai’, or ‘writing’ ritual designs with fingers, is done on the occasion of birth, marriage, death, the sacred thread ceremony ‘janeu’ and festivals. It is traditionally done with the white paste of rice flour on a background of red clay, ‘geru’

" Aipan means rangoli in kumaoni language. The food served here is also beautifully served and cooked with great love. It tastes delicious and some of the varitey one may never have heard. The food tastes like home food, exactly how our mothers make. We had ordered gahat ki dal, arbi masala, aloo ka thechwa for our main course. Believe me all of it was yummy. For dessert we had ordered pue with chocolate sauce, this was also very traditional sweet. This is indeed a place where you will be served a rangoli of food variety. "

" It's run by gaurav pant a pedigree of mahesh lunch home guys ( he is 1st cousin ), runs a excellent hotel with kumouni food and the usual panner and usual culprits. He is extremely passionate about his restaurant and delivers taste with 10 on 10. A veg restaurant , had few kumaoni dishes like bhang ki chutney , madhue ki roti, arbi masala and a millet kheer, he gives you all recipes without any hassle, has a store next door which sells some local ingredients which is run by his elder brother. I would recommend this place for a lovely kumauoni veg meal."
