So, now the spotlight is on Indian foods. I was never a fan of Indian foods for the first half of my life, until I got married. And since my other half is an Indian foods lover, I got hooked too. Sedap rupanya makanan India ni...
Our fave Indian joint is Restoran Nirvana Maju in Bangsar.
Our 'plates'...
The top plate belongs to my hubby.
But I LOVE this and ask for double servings.
SEDAPNYAA!! This is snake gourd fried with spicy batter.
I could eat this the whole day. Sedap banget sih!!!
The waiter piling on the gravy.
Plenty of dhal and curry, please!
Please don't stop until I say so!!!
Aaahhhh... that looks about right.
Time to dig in now.
Side orders are also available.
Yang ni fried tenggiri (spanish mackerel) and fried puyuh (quail).
Crunchy and spicy. Very oommmpppphhhhyy!
Rice is all gone.
Saving the best for last.
My delicious fried snake gourd...
(this is my 3rd helping actually.. huhu)
Rasem or google says rasam.
And wiki says it's a South Indian soup.
A very sour soup, that is.
I'm yet to acquire its taste.
Nggak begitu sukak deh dengan rasanya
but my hubby loves it. Dua2 ni dia bedal!
My friend, Pae, would be happy to see this. (=
All foods dutily consumed now.
The drill is to fold the banana leaf towards you
if you're happy with your meal.
But I always fold mine away from me for practical reason.
I wouldnt want any runaway gravy
to drip down the table onto me. No way, jose!
And for more safety measure,
letak container rasam and pinggan atas daun pisang tu.
Sure selamat punya tuuuu....

Now, wash down all that goodness with a glass of cold OJ. Their OJ pun sedap. Very terasa the orange. |

Next to our table is this young boy
who looks like Blanket Jackson!
Anyway, Nirwana Maju Restaurant address is :
43 Jalan Telawi 3, Bangsar Baru, 59100 Kuala Lumpur.Telephone: 03 - 2287 844
Parking is a nightmare. So be prepared to make a few rounds before you can find a parking space.
