Review of Alankar Kerala Restaurant @ 4 Norris Street Little India ● Kerala Parotta & Chatti Choru

Gandhi_Banana_Leaf_Restaurant_Singapore

We met up at Gandhi Restaurant at 
Chander Road. It is hugely popular but not much mentioned in social media. This was my first time here and is now at the top of my mind for "go eat banana leaf" places in Singapore.

Update 2 Aug 2021


Gandhi Restaurant is now owned by Casuarina Restaurant.

Buddy EJ brought me to Usman Restaurant in Singapore's Little India. EJ had been eating here for nearly 20 years and his raving about Usman's "white nasi briyani" got me excited. I am a nasi briyani fan and had never even heard of "white briyani" before, till now.

When makan kakis suggested lunch at Barakath Restaurant, I looked forward to it as I had been wanting to try their curry lamb shank bones since reading celebrity chef Damian D’Silva calling this place his “pukul mati" fix (Malay for “beat until you die”).
