KK : Choice Restaurant
I actually wanted to try out a different Indian restaurant but when my chauffeur cum food connoiseur threatened to drop me off the highway if the place I chose is not up to par, I gave in and so we found ourselves at Choice, as recommended by another friend.
I felt a bit wary at first of an Indian restaurant that did not have an Indian name and when we saw that the place was practically empty, save for one table, I thought it didn’t look very promising too.
But to cut a long story short, I am glad to report that we were totally satisfied (up to the point of bursting actually).
The menu was not very extensive, and I think their variety is more kedai mamak rather than Indian fine dining. We each took the biryani rice, mine with chicken and Vee had the mutton briyani.
Because we are greedy, I asked for my favorite Indian dish, the aloo gobi (potatoes) and Vee opted for the fried bittergourd.
As for drinks, they were very generous with their ingredients. You won’t get such thick slices of lemon in any lemon tea drink anywhere else!
Their poppadum were slightly different than most. They are small in size, like keropok, and the daal that came with it was delicious.
All these cost us RM45+ which I thought was a good deal.
Half way through, a big group came and when we left, there were about 3 other tables totalling about 40 patrons but because the place was so huge, it still looked very empty. I was told that it’s usually that way too.
I’m not sure if they consulted their Vashtu Sastra on the layout of the place but I think from the feng shui point of view, perhaps the location of the toilet has something to do with it? Because I really don’t see any reason why this place shouldn’t be popular. The prices were competitive, the food was delicious, the service was quick and the place was clean.
So those of you who haven’t tried it before should really drop by. Don’t be fooled by the empty tables.
I got home in one piece so obviously she too was satisfied…
