Worth the wait

I went to try and dine here one evening only to notice a long queue of people so decided to skip and try the following night so i did just that.. with only 6 people in front of me waiting it was short 15 min wait but it was worth it for sure. Would say probs the best food i had in borneo so far. A must visit

A Culinary Adventure Worth the Wait

Thanks to a helpful review, I arrived a bit earlier to beat the queue, but amusingly, I still ended up waiting for about 5 minutes. Not a big deal though. There are limited vegan options, approximately two, but you can make wild guesses based on the menu. Refer to the uploaded pictures for a detailed view. Unfortunately, there's no separate menu for vegetarians or vegans, so it's crucial to confirm with the staff during ordering. Specify that you're vegan and emphasize your dietary preferences. Communication is key—I've had a few instances where, even after stating my preferences, the staff suggested non-vegan options. Another thing to note is that the establishment only accepts cash. Despite this, I ordered the plain naan with dhall curry, and it was exceptional. The naan was the best I've ever had, and the dhall was delicious. Food-wise, I'd give it a solid 5/5. Definitely a must-visit for food enthusiasts, especially considering the limited vegetarian or vegan options for dinner in central Kuching.

Hospitality and great vegan food

We spoke to the owner who made us a -vegan feast- that included a bunch of different chutneys, curries, and rice and bread (I think it was chapati). The curries and food was pretty spicy and delicious. Be sure to specify no ghee/butter, dairy, eggs, and meat/fish just in case—but the owner seemed pretty knowledgeable.

Vegan friendly South Asian food

This place mostly serves meat but several menu items can be made vegan. I got the plain naan (which comes with dhal instead of the usual chicken-based gravy) and the appam set which can be made vegan upon request.

The restaurant manager (if you see a large photo of a man holding up a long string of cheesy naan to the right of the store, that's him) enthusiastically accommodated our requests to have vegan dishes, and the food was also really good. He knew exactly what 'vegan' food entails (eg: when we asked about the appam he said he can remove the egg from the dish).

The restaurant is very popular for its cheesy naan though, so you may have to wait in line for a while to get a table.

Pros: Tasty food, Some staff are familiar with vegan diet

Cons: Limited vegan options, Long waiting time
