Komala's Restaurants

Yesterday I was talking about the Nasi Bryani, today I shall talk about the vegetarian Indian next to the stall! Hehs.

I had thoughts of trying because I love the Indian food from Biopolis (it's oh-so-nice and it's a please-try-it kinda thing). Plus, this stall has a lot of people too. So, why not? Haha.

BUT! I cannot try a lot of stuffs because we have limited space in the stomach. So, I only bought the garlic nann bread which was one of my favorite from Biopolis. I was pretty shock when I was asked for $5 for the nann bread because I had not remembered my super nice nann bread from Biopolis costing this much.

Hmmm. It turns out that it is $5 for a reason. Look! There's curry (my favourite aloo gobi or how you spell it)! I love the cauliflower with the curry. Yum yum. BUT BUT BUT! I went 'yum yum' was because I was thinking of the one from Biopolis. The ones they gave was a little bit too spicy for my liking. And I felt that the curry was not thick enough. The flavor was not exactly there. I would not say that it's not really nice. Just that, it was not enough to make me want to give it a second try.

The nann bread should be the main character ba. Urm, I felt that it was not too well done (but the man felt that it was good). It could be because my expectations were a little high for the nann bread. It still taste good with the curries of course.

Well, I can only say, try the one from Biopolis instead. It's the best Indian place in Singapore! I'm not the only one saying it. We are so dead serious about it. Haha. You do know that we should not waste calories over bad/not too good/can be improved food right?

Oh by the way, in case you are wondering what is Nann bread, it is actually something like roti prata, in Singaporean's layman terms. Hehs. However, it is thicker and it is nicer and. The nann bread is baked in a tandoor or clay oven. At the end of it, it can be served plain, or spread with different things like garlic or butter. Urm, people usually eat it with different fillings/curries I think. Pardon me if I had said anything wrong because Indian cuisine is not my forte. Haha. I love it so much because of the Indian place at Biopolis. Hahaha!

The first thing that came to many of my friends' mind after we have decided to eat at Northpoint's food court is the Nasi Bryani. I tried it once upon a time and I thought it was pretty good. And not too long ago, I was watching TXY eat while I was having some major gastric and only managed half a bowl of green bean soup. After that, I told myself, I have to go back to buy it for myself.

Boy, it is always having such a long queue. Like, ALWAYS!

The queue. I did not take the queue behind me.

The stall is a corner, which is good. Because the queue can stretch to the sink area where we will not disturb most of the people eating there. Haha.

And as I reach the front of the stall, I got a little more excited! Haha. Look at the piping hot rice! Hehs. The 'turnover rate' of the rice is so high that they have to keep cooking and cooking! Yums.

And oh, the meat. Haha. I think the most popular is the mutton and the chicken drumstick. I prefer the former. And I love it de-boned. BUT! It will cost you $2 more.

And the curry for the rice.......... >.<

I bought it home to share it with the man because I was in the mood of packing food for him. LOL!

Mutton bryani without the curry.

With the curry.

Ya. It's oh-so-good-for-my-weak-and-sensitive-stomach. LOL. But heys, the meat was really tender. And the flavoring was really great. The curry made the rice even better than it is. I have no idea how should I describe it to convince you that it is that good. LOL! It's just $6.50. Just try it and you will know. But, brace yourself for the queue. I took a photo of the people in the food court. Most of the tables were eating from this stall. Haha. But the photo was not so good so I did not post it up. Oh, did I mention that the crackers were really super nice! It's so crispy! Unlike some stalls which gives soggy crackers. Hehs.

I can only say. There's really good food in the tucked away north zone that's so easily forgotten by many people. The moment you source for good food, you start thinking about all the super famous ones or the town area. Haha. Please give the 'villagers' a little chance? Hahahahaha!
