A nice little busy cafe restaurant, would be great in the summer. The food seems popular because of the number of takeaway bikers pulling up, and the bright lights, crazy music and friendly staff make it an interesting dining experience in a cramped space at this time of the year. I tried the chicken dum biryani, which had a nice spiciness to it along with all the flavours. The onion raitha, gravy complimented the main dish. The teh tarik, a sweet tea, topped off the meal nicely. I would definitely try more of the menu - the dosa and the Malaysian selection of rice and noodles is next - for such reasonable prices!

firstly, it is a very small place with small tables and even only as a group of two, we struggled to fit comfortably but we made it work😅 their menu is broad and offers both south-indian and malaysian dishes but we went with what the staff said was most popular.
this was my first time trying dosa but i really liked it! the dosa was very crispy and comes filled with spiced potato, which was sooo flavourful. it also came with two chutneys and sambal on the side - my fav was the tomato chutney bc it was refreshing and balanced out the spice. the roti was not bad but it was not the best, as it was more chewy than flakey - i found out afterwards that they pre-make the rotis in the day and then reheat them in the evening so they’re technically not 100% fresh. the chicken curry also could’ve been better because it was reliant on chilli and i couldn’t really taste anything else.
perhaps i am bias bc i love noodles but the star of the show was the kuey teow goreng! the wok hei was prominent and the seasoning was just right - not overly salty or bland. we did originally ask for it with seafood but were given chicken but it was delicious nonetheless. everything is reasonably priced and the portions on the whole are also good so i’d love to come back - i already have my eyes on the laksa!
Very good fluffy roti with delicious spicy Dal curry... I would rate the spiciness as UK 5 chili, Malaysian 3 chili.
