Komala Vilas Restaurant

In my opinion they have the best indian food here. I absolutely love their Masala Thosai (been my fave since I was young) and it basically is spiced potato wrapped in a thosai! It comes with 3 sauces and my fave sauce is the coconut chutney followed by the curry in the middle. They also have naan here. I personally like their garlic naan. They have plain, butter, cheese etc. They also have mushroom mutter and butter paneer which is super yummy by the way. Coming here you also have to try their teh tarik. It's served in two cups for you to cool the tea down by "pulling" the tea hence teh tarik! Definitely an experience you should try! In terms of location it is about a 5 minute walk from Little India MRT station. Quite accessible. However why I gave it 4 stars was because we had to wait quite awhile for our food to be served but I would say the food is worth the wait. The place is also air conditioned so its a great respite from the blazing heat outside. They also sell Ladu (Indian sweets) and my sis and I used to absolutely love the milk one with the edible foil but because its really sweet and we are trying to be more health conscious we skipped it this time. We noticed some people come in just to enjoy some drinks and dessert and they leave without eating any mains. Rather interesting! Also we realised they added a small little exhibition outside their shop to give some history and context to the heritage of the shop! Worth a look :)

We just shifted to Singapore and this place filled my heart with so much warmth and love because the south indian food here is absolutely impeccable, as good as eating in south India! 😭 The idlis were so warm and soft, so were the dosas and my Andhra meal? Soso delicious. 10/10 recommend if you're feeling homesick!
