Mumbai Delights Mont Kiara - Authentic North Indian Vegetarian Street Food - Best Restaurant Review

There are a lot of people who loves a vegetarian meals once in a while. Some of these vegetarian meals are purely vegetables based; while others are chutney or soy based but we found out that it can also be cheese based. Best Restaurant To Eat was invited to a vegetarian food review at Mumbai Delights located at Block E, 01-04, Jalan Kiara 2, Plaza Mont Kiara, Mont Kiara Kuala Lumpur.

Being a vegan in Malaysia, one does not have much choices to choose from. Here at Mumbai Delights they served a wide varieties of vegetarian food for you to choose from; ranging from authentic Mumbai Street food to fusion vegetarian food like pizza and pasta.

The setup of Mumbai Delights has 2 dining area where one can dine either in a brightly lit dining hall while alfresco diners can opt to have a drink while enjoying the delicious snack fare offering at the side of the restaurant.

We find a little interesting discovery is that at Mumbai Delights; it also serves beer and liquor. This is the first time we come across a vegetarian outlet serving liquor; don't know why or whether this is a common practise in Mumbai. 

Our dinner started with the Samosa Set (RM7.00) - It is an Indian potato filling with the samosa skin and deep fried to a crisp. This set comes in 2 pieces. 

This is then followed by Vada Pav (RM5.50) which is an Indian Burger (a popular Mumbai street food) with tamarind and green chutney filling. 

The next dish is a fusion Thai Curry Dal with Garlic Naan (RM14.00). The curry is cooked with an assortment of vegetables which includes broccoli, bok choy, carrots and so forth.

After that, is the Malai Kofta (RM15.00) which is a Dryfruit Dumpling( a combination of cashew nuts mix with cottage cheese) fried to a golden brown and served with a white cream cashew gravy.

Although you could order the Malai Kofta to be eaten with pav or naan but we were told that the Malai Kofta is best eaten with a new item to be added which is the Green Rice.

The next dish is a special creation of stuffed fresh button mushroom coated with cottage cheese  with tikka malai aptly named as Himachali Kumbh (RM18.00).

For the pizza, we had the Parizza (from the word combination of Paratha Pizza) Layered Pizza (RM24.00). The dough is a layered naan which is cooked in a tandoor and then topped with the mushroom with topping of capsicum, mushroom, mozzarella, cheddar and cottage cheese oven baked with Chef secret recipe.

This is followed by the Bhurji Pav (RM18.00) - shredded cottage cheese are pan fried with condiments and spices and served with pav but we had this with a layered naan.

The last dish was the Chilli Garlic Sizzler (RM24.00) - a complete meal which comprise of vegetable, corn, french fries, cottage cheese cutlet topped with a chilli garlic sauce on a bed of rice. You have the option to order it with pasta instead.

To end our meal, we had a specially concocted Chocolate Samosa (RM18.00) with Vanilla ice-cream, dazzles with hot dark chocolate.

So the next time you yearn for some North Indian vegetarian meal particularly Mumbai street food;make a date with Mumbai Delights Mont Kiara.

The Ganga Cafe @ Bangsar – North South Indian Vegetarian Cuisine – A Vegan Paradise Review By Best Restaurant

For a meat lover like me, vegetarian meals does not really excite me much, after all, how much, can vegetables be cooked in any way that will satisfy my craving for a truly satisfying meals. How wrong can I be? We were invited by the owners of the newly taken over café i.e. The Ganga Café @ Bangsar which is located at 19. Lorong Kurau, Off Jalan Riong, Bangsar Pertama, 59100 Kuala Lumpur

This no-frills café is located at a very quiet corner of bustling Bangsar, which is a stone throw away from NSTP office. In fact, to reach it, you drive past NSTP office and turn left at the traffic junction and go all the way straight until you reach a row of shop house or click on the location below.

Helm by Madam Meeta, she has brought her home kitchen to the The Ganga, you will be pleasantly surprised on how ingredients and spices when fallen into the right hands can transform simple food like potatoes, chick peas and tomatoes into sumptuous, delicious and nutritious vegetarian dishes.

To start off the night, The Ganga Café @Bangsar offers 4 specialty drinks which were unique, special and pure. The drinks are
Ganga Tea Crush -A concoction of mint, lemon and lime in ice tea
 Pranic Juice -A concoction of mixed herbs, spices and mint leaves- a detox formula
  Mango Lassi - very creamy and thick Lassi.
Lemonade - Lemon Lime with a tinge of Soda.

For starter, we had the Stuffed Fried Chilli – To make this, potatoes are cooked with spices and then smashed and stuffed and wrapped into and around the green chilli. This is followed by a coating of chick pea powder and deep fried. This Stuffed Fried Chilli is then topped up with a spread of in-house made yoghurt and some sprinkle of coriander chutney and garnish with coriander leaves.

The next item we had sounded like “Hello Kitty” which in actual fact is called Allo Tikki – this is quite similar to the begedil in which it is also potatoes based but without any meats.

The deep frying at high heat of the breadcrumbs makes the crust crispy while the potatoes filling with coriander leaves, chilli padi was smooth and soft and spicy if you get to the chilli padi.

Another starters that we had was the Masala Papadam. It looks like a thin crust vegetarian pizza, but the base, instead of a dough based, it is a home-made papadam, which was pan fried till crisp and garnish with vegetables topping like onion, capsicum and tomatoes cubes.

Next, we had the Vada Pav. Pav stands for bread in Indian which happens to sounds like Pau for Chinese too. So, it is not too difficult to remember this. This is a dish that looks like a mushroom or hamburger with a thick layer of patties but this patties is 100% vegetable based which has potatoes as the based and cooked with spices, chat massala and deep fried.

The bread is butter roasted on both sides, with the bottom section spread with red chilli chutney and the top with a green coloured coriander chutney. So, the next time you like to have a burger but not the fats, you ought to try this for a change.

Next, we had the Bhathura Set, which was the deep fried until the Bhathura becomes inflated. To eat it, you poke a hole and you will be able to see the steam escaping from the Bhathura. This Bhathura set comes with Chick Peas cooked with Masala Chat and secret spices.

The Chick Peas was soft and blended well with the sauce. To eat it, you spread a little yoghurt on to the Bhathura and add in a spoonful of chick peas and a small slice of onions. It is just a perfect combination to savour this dish. Best eaten with your hands.

Thirdly, we had the Pav Bhajhi. Bhajhi stands for mixed vegetables, which means this dish is called Mixed Vegetables Bread. The serving comes with the yoghurt and mixed vegetables of which are the potatoes, cauliflower, capsicum, green peas and tomatoes.

The last set we had was the Radish Paratha. The process to make this paratha is very tedious and time consuming. The raddish are first cut into thinly strip and squeezes dried and cooked with coriander seeds and leaves. It is then put in between the paratha dough before the dough is being pan fried. It is served with a potato spread and yoghurt as the accompaniment.

If you are ones of those health freaks, you might want to try the Ayurvedic Chapatti. The dough is a mixture of 6 super healthy grains which is Wheat, Oats, Maize, Ragi, Chana Dhall and Barley. Best eaten with Dhall.

As, it was a Friday and a vegetarian day for the Indian, The Ganga Café do offer a complimentary desserts i.e. Payasam for each diners. The Payasam was indeed a perfect close to our hearty meal as it was very light, not too sweet, as some which I have tried before at other restaurant.

On every Sunday, The Ganga Café @ Bangsar offers a Special Sunday Buffet which has around 18 dishes for the price of RM16 per pax. To catch the latest offering, I was told that you can visit their facebook page which will have an update on what will be served at their Sunday buffet by Thursday. This gives you the opportunity to try out all the special dishes all at one go. Heed this, it is usually jam packed with people, so you probably have to get up early on a Sunday to devour at the Buffet.

For lunch and dinner, you can have the Rice set, which you have a choice of either to choose Brown Rice, Tomato Rice or the Briyani Rice. It is offered in Big Thali, Thali or G-Light portion. For most the Thali (normal) portion should be sufficient.

So, the next time, you do yearn for some healthy, nutritious, wholesome, delicious Indian Vegetarian meal, head over to The Ganga Café @Bangsar.

Superb Indian Mutton Curry Rice @ATS Curry House Section 22 Petaling Jaya

Wonder where you can get reasonable price and tasty Indian Mutton Rice in Petaling Jaya. One such place is at ATS Curry House located at 6, Jalan 22/49 Taman Aman Petaling Jaya. A stone throw from the SMK Sri Aman school. To find exact location, please scroll down to the location, it will have the GPS map there.

 Eating at road side stall has some advantage i.e. prices are more reasonable, and sometimes under a big tree.

At ATS Curry House, the mutton curry was very good as the chef have used the right amount of spices with the right timing to cook this simple dish.

The mutton was not tough and did not have the musky mutton taste that will put you off.

Due to the precise timing and cooking skills of the chef, the meat was also quite tender and you need not have to put up a fight to eat it.

The mutton was cut into large boney chunks where you can drool and slurp the meat from the bones.

My only displeasure was that they should have trim off the access fats which makes it not so pleasing to the eyes and you need to really chew on these fats.

For those of you that are not a fan of mutton, you can try their Fried Chicken Rice which are the chicken skin was very crunchy and the meat still retains the juiciness.

Taste wise, it would have been better, if the chicken were marinated to a little longer as the flavors would have impede into the meat rather than just coated on the outer layer.

Price wise, the Mutton Curry with a Fried Eggs and Vegetable was at RM8.50 while the Fried Chicken Set was at RM6.50.

The only setback eating at this place is the house fly (lalat) which also targeting after the delicious mutton curry. I guess they are also a great fan of the food serves at ATS Curry House just like me.
