Located right at the opposite of a very large modern-looking shopping mall, I came here for a quick lunch en route; there's a surprisingly lot of Chinese crowds and even a group of westerners that sounds Australian/Britain to me (believe or not, I only saw one table consisting of Indians only).
I didn't have much time to try their banana leaf set so I went to have some mixed rice instead, and it's pretty good! (and safe for me as a fellow seafood allergies sufferer, but do note that they still sell seafoods in their menu)
While waiting for palak paneer they came out with a bowl of dessert that I don't recognize and they seem to be giving out for free. As far as I can taste it has hint of ginger and something sour, with lots of small chunks of something and nuts. It's pretty good!
I had to take away the palak paneer as I'm in a rush, I'll edit this review when I'm back home.
Overall good experience, will come back and try more of their dishes in the menu.
(Definitely halal, have you ever seen a local Indian restaurant that's not halal?)
(Turns out quite a few tables in there are in fact a big, extended Chinese-Indian-Western family eating together, and they are most likely the reason why the dishes take so slow to come out, but still a good place to eat out regardless)
EDIT: The palak paneer still tastes pretty good after being left alone, cold, for a few hours. The spinach base is full of garlic flavour and delicious, but the paneer surprised me; I didn't quite expect the cheese to have a tofu-like texture and subtle milky flavour, this is my first time eating it though and...

First time visiting this humble unassuming Indian restaurant. Itโs those kind of restaurants that only locals will know and keep returning while newbies like me will be overwhelmed by the constant pop ups of new eateries in this area.
They serve mostly South Indian food including banana leaf rice and normal mixed rice type if you donโt wan to get the BLR. Their ala carte dishes options is quite wide. Menu is general offers a lot of choices from rotis, naans, goreng-goreng to tandoori and claypot dishes! ๐
Hereโs what we tried:
Tandoori platter Claypot fish curry Mutton vindaloo Deep fried squid Prawn Chettinand Butter chicken Palak paneer Gobi 65
The claypot fish curry was a standout! ๐ Perfectly tangy and โkawโ with just the right amount of spice! Fish was fresh and generous amount of veggies too.
Mutton vindaloo was flavourful and meat was tender. My favorite Gobi 65 (deep fried cauliflower) was so well fried and executed ๐
Generally all the dishes we tried were really good and we had no complaints ๐
Would def recommend if youโre into good authentic...
