BEVERAGE:
Salted Lassi (hubby) & Mango Lassi (myself)

Digestive spices like cumin and garlic make rasam a must-have at all South Indian meals. Chicken in rasam is a Chettinad specialty.

Spicy deep-fried cauliflower
Tandoor roasted chicken in mild aromatic sauce

Fragrant rice cooked with vegetable and spices
Naan with succulent cheese filling
GARLIC BUTTER NAAN Naan with garlic/butter topping |
Kingfish (Tenggiri) slices cooked in Chetinnad tamarind sauce

Chunks of cottage cheese in creamed spinach
FALOODA (Dessert)
A tall glass of chilled rose-flavoured milk with vermicelli, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream
COMMENTS:
*The Mango Lassi - highly recommended and is also good for kids. Salted Lassi with a bit of sugar, taste like coconut water.
*Chicken Rasam - It is good for your digestion. Normally, after a hearty meal, this soup is taken to help stimulate your digestive system. This is so true!
*Chicken 65 - This is a starter dish. I'd say this starter dish makes you want to have a beer. Smooth texture and a bit spicy.
*Gobi 65 - I love this dish!
*Chicken Tikka Masala - Nice to have with Naan or rice dish.
*Vegetable Pulav - A vegetarian must have rice dish.
*Cheese Naan - Nyum!
*Garlic Butter Naan - My favourite!
*Vanjaram (Tenggiri) Fish Curry - the tamarind is quite strong making it a bit salty.
*Kanavai Fried - Also good.
*Palak Paneer - YOU SHOULD TRY THIS! Immaculate dish!
*Falooda - Not too sweet. Suits my taste.
Overall comment,
RATINGS:
Service: 8/10
Food: 8/10
Will you come again: YES

hi chegu. I think that was Krishna's Curry House you visited. They have shifted in Grand Millenium. You should try Anjappar and tell me your experience there.
