Kurry Klub - Gandhi Restaurant in Little India

Gandhi Restaurant in little India is our favorite haunt for local (South) Indian curry. This is probably one of the best curry you will find from the local scene. I found out about this place from a fellow running a sundry shop next to Movenpick Marché at The Heeren on Orchard Road. I was captivated by the smell of the curry and asked him where he packed his take away curry. The fellow got it all the way from Gandhi Restaurant on Chander Road in Little India. So the hunt was on...

You can smell the fragrance of the curry from a fair distance away. Not the cleanest of restaurant, but decent enough for local standards. The place reminds me of the tuckshops from my school days. There is a series of stainless steel water vase and drinking cups. Most folks eats with their hands the traditional way. Forks and spoons are also available for you to eat off the banana leaf. Yes, BANANA LEAF! Very interesting setup.

The waiter/server(can I can him that?) will give you a tray with a banana leaf on it. He will usually put 2 different vegetables, 1 preserved vege, option of steam rice or yellow rice, plus whatever dishes you order. There is usually a choice of curry. I recommend fish curry over your rice. You can add yogurt to your rice to mellow out the spicy curry. The papadams helps too.

The lime juice is good relieve for the spices, the masala tea, you need to try! I recon the fishead curry is not worth having. Mutton is not too nice as they tend to over cook their mutton. The sotong is heavab. Fried chicken, masala chicken is good.

Tomorrow, we will bring Pradeep, a co-worker from India visiting us this week to Gandhi. Yum Yum!
