Our Story

Clean, conscious & plant-powered

Welcome to The Cardamom Pod at Brickworks. We’re a group of happy, healthy people who love sharing great vegetarian dishes cooked with heart and the best ingredients available.

Our cooking hails from the beautiful traditions of ancient India, where food is prepared as an offering of love — prasadam. Every plate is fully plant-based, free from dairy or animal by-products, and made to leave you feeling nourished and light.

Cooked with Heart
