Awesome food. Service was fast and pleasant. Highly recommended for family and friends looking for a decent banana leaf meal. Keep up the good work
Aunty Manju’s is that new kid on the block. I have visited every Banana Leaf Rice place in that row in TTDI but this is by far, one of the most hip and modern places. The ambience is great.
Usually very busy during noon, I went on Monday night and it wasn’t really busy. Finally able to devour some delicious banana leaf. It was good!
I loved the Crab Curry, that spice! Boyfriend and I really enjoyed our dinner. Why only 4 Stars? I wish they had fried snake gourd. I tried to ask one of the servers here and they didn’t know what it was. The manager I think told me they do not have Fried Snake Gourd. The condiments that comes with the rice are yummy too. The fried tengirri was fresh and it was huge as well. My lovely chicken 65 was piping hot when it arrived but I could not wait to dig in. Chunks of chicken, fried to perfection. That marinade.
Would definitely visit again, maybe during lunch this time. Such happy tummies leaving this restaurant.
This place is awesome. All dishes we tried, we loved. Thanks for the good food! Highly recommended and will definitely be back soon! Please come taste the food before judging. Thia place is a MUST-TRY!
all the items are cheap and fresh made
we had a dosa which in Malaysia it's been called thosai.
we had plain dosa.
quite atmosphere there it is with average crowd as we went early
The fish curry, fried chicken, fried fish, squid and lamb shank was awesome! But service was a bit off. Only 1 worker to take orders & most of them can’t understand malay & english. But again, the food was so so so good! Definitely will come back 😄
Great home cooked Indian BLR food with lots of side dishes to choose from, there is fried to curried, seafood to chicken to mutton. And their biryani (chicken and/or mutton) is one of the tastiest around as well, but only available on select days of the week.
The BLR is a full meal by itself, which comes with
- Rice (white or Indian), 4 vegetables, Resam, 5 different curries to choose from (sambar, chicken, fish, keera or onion), Papadam and a piece of dessert (usually kesari) to top off you meal.
My favourite side dishes are the fried chicken or fried fish cutlets and do try either the masala chicken or mutton. Now, if you are a mutton bone marrow lover, you gotta try Aunty Manju's Mutton Bone Marrow Curry, it's a dish to die for.
And to cap it all off at the end , order a Fresh Cows milk Bru coffee or their Masala Tea. Now that's a full hearty Indian BLR meal.
Their tofu sambal, fried sotong and fried chicken is amazing. Mutton varuval (idk how to spell it) taste so good and packed with spices and flavours. Amazing curry that taste thick and flavourful. This place have not yet disappoint me. Just that one of the staff there aren't so attentive. Their new manager are very efficient and interacts with the customer at times. So far its one of the best banana leaf I've had. Nirwana and Devi's have not yet come close to this place.
Not great in terms of choices for a vegetarian. That being said, their tofu sambal was memorable for me. The food here has a home cook feel to it. Service staff and ambience are definitely top tier in their league.

Money sickness is apparently the major struggle sickness these days. Are you now asking me what this nava-k’s whole theory of money sickness is about? My pleasure. Allow me to pour the whole bucket of it. Money sickness basically means working our butt in-out for sustaining our lifestyle, money sickness is also interpreted as falling sick mentally and physically when we don’t have enough money. Really, I can pretty much understand why. Making ends meet I suppose is easier said than done, especially in the city where people judge you by the car you drive, the house you live, your grandest wedding and your whiz kids millions of talents. Basically again, money is akin the broadband router to social status and when you can’t keep up with the “Kardashians”, money sickness sucks massively.
Banana leaf by Aunty Manju is absolutely mouth-watering. Flavours is very different from Nirwana Maju's banana leaf (my staple) but it's a good kind of different! It comes with 5 vegetable side dishes, which are lovely in their own way. I've also been told many times about the "Mutton Bone Marrow Curry" here so it's a must-try!
Staffs are super friendly and cheerful despite the hectic lunch hour, which makes a big difference in my experience there. Definitely my go-to if I wanna get my banana leaf fix nearby.
