Recently I was just walking by Aishwaryam Restaurant, and the whiff of a woodfire stove making fresh parotas caught my nose and eye. I had made a note to visit them and I did for a light dinner recently ordering their Tamil Nadu style parotas and a chicken kebab or more famously 65. The place is very rustic, open, with bare minimum chairs and tables, yet necessarily a bit clean. I sat down ordering a pair of parotas, and a chicken kebab with bone, as there was no boneless option available. The parotas were pre-prepared and were taken out of the hot box, tossed into the tawa, with some oil, and landed on my table with a complimentary bowl of salna. The quality of oil used to toss the parota was very questionable, and made the parota smell old, and there was literally no flavour whatsoever of a salna in the version served here. It was dark and lacked the dept of flavours usually preserved in a good salna. Terribly disappointed, I took a bite of the chicken kebab, which is relatively very good, especially at that price point. More meaty pieces, that was crispy, super hot, probably freshly made, and it tasted wonderful. If not for the parota, I can definitely recommend this place for the Bangalore style chicken kebab.
The parota pair was very nominally priced at 40, and the with-bone chicken kebab half portion (with 5 pieces) at 50, which is something very affordable and attracts a lot of crowd as I could see.
With the doubtful quality of oil, and lack of a killer salna, I would avoid this place and head straight to my current favourite for Tamil Nadu style, more specifically Madurai style food, TN-81 The Taste of Tamil Nadu in...
