Malabar Kitchen - Muscat

Elaneer payasam taste was really awesome, puttu and kadala curry was also good with authentic taste, which I love the most.

Condensed review: One of the best kerala restaurants in Chennai<br/ <br/ Detailed review : Located on the opposite side of the Thalappakati, it was a bit difficult to find the entrance of this place. Make sure that you have eyes on the sky well, at least on the first floor name boards). The entrance staircase, slightly cramped between two shops take you up to the first floor where the sufficiently spacious restaurant is situated. It was nearly empty when we went there on a weekday night. Even though it is mentioned in the menu that service will take 20 mins, it was faster than that. We ordered:<br/ Chicken 65 biriyani 4/5. The biriyani felt and tasted 'almost ' like thalassery biriyani this comes from a person who has gone to Paris thalassery and had The Thalassery version). But a bit over priced.<br/ Porotta and kozhi porichath combo 5/5. Perfect Value for money! The kozhi porichath was perfect, and came with a side of chicken gravy. The porotta was a tad extra crispy, but I will let that go.<br/ Chicken liver fry 5/5. Never go to this place and not try this dish out. Good quantity with the right amount of spices.<br/ We ended it with a lemon tea. In case you have a thing for kerala dishes, definitely give this place a try. Only if they had Beef on the menu I would have claimed it to be the best in Chennai

Malabar Kitchen is something that is very different from the typical Kerala restaurants in Chennai. Let it be in the spices and the way the cook. I was expecting a below par quality and quantity, but MK managed to serve better food. Kerala Porotta, Chicken Biriyani, Kappa, Appam and Kozhi Porichathu were good. Parking is a major concern as this place is near to the Vijaya nagar bus stop junction. They should plan for a valet setup which in turn can give them lot more customers.

Got to kNow this place from a friend. Who suggested me to try Malabar parotta. And i was grateful to him for suggesting. But we also ordered biriyani forgetting it would be in kerala style. But rest all was great

Amazing food
