Casuarina Prata


Oh sweet tunnel of food

Shucks, blogger is acting up again and I can't put my pictures up! So I'll just put up something we ate like a few months back (which doesn't help when we tried to recall how they tasted like).

Uuh... just enjoy the pictures. Like a children story book! Ya know, when you were a kid and you only flip through the pictures and not the boring text. Just treat it that way.

So here goes nothing:

Paper thosai masala



Quite good. HAHA (Pathetic). That's all I can remember. Oh yeah, it's crunchy... uhm, the coconut side was goody goody and we swapped dhal curry for mutton curry which was much better. The masala potatoes were, well, I forgot. Hehe. =)



Egg prata was quite huge (the biggest egg prata I've ever seen) but tasted pretty average.



I may be forgetful but not that forgetful to write about probably one of the nicest bryani I've eaten. Fair enough though, I don't eat alot of bryani so if my tastebuds fail to judge accurately, don't ostracise me please?



The gravy was ooooooo maaaa goodddddneesssss. I loved it! And so did everybody else. It's more to the sweet side (shizz I think my brain can only identify sweet and savoury... okay maybe bitter and sour too, not that good at defining the taste). The rice was ooookay only. Actually I didn't get a good shot at the rice cause I was frantically scooping up the rice with the gravy and shoving it into my mouth which will end on in my belly which will ultimately end up on my love handles. Aaah, *sobs*

The chicken was a little hard though.

Umm, I don't have the address but I'll be visiting the place tomorrow again and I'll just post it up ASAP. :)

Sri Kamala Vilas



Hey! I realised this is my first post on Indian food! Wahaha, oh man I should be ashamed of myself.

Anyways, Sri Kamala Vilas is located near Tekka Market and sells the normal indian fare including those sweet and deep fried indian snacks. Funny though, I pretty sure I didn't see prata on the menu *Shrugs* Besides, I heard that prata is non-existent in India and it's actually invented in Singapore or Malaysia, anyone care to share their point of view?



The thosai is, well, not exceptionally good and there's a rye-like taste to it which I didn't really like. The orange stuff in the centre is good though, and the coconut, oh I totally dig it. It's awesome (but Qin thinks it's a turn-off).



The masala chicken, on the other hand, is quite good actually but again, not exceptional. In fact, I don't remember much of it except that the taste is quite good and not over-empowering, not very spicy, and goes well with the thosai.



It's not a place to go out of the way for, but if you're in the area, I'd reckon you give the thosai masala or paper thosai a try as they should be quite interesting.
