Malabar Indian Restaurant
Two Flat Whites had heard a lot of good things about an Indian Restaurant recently & wanted to try it for ourselves. So we ventured to Darlinghurst & stopped by Malabar Indian Restaurant for a meal that we will never forget! What we received was so much more than a great meal. Malabar was one of the true dining experiences!
It is ideally located in Sydney’s exclusive Darlinghurst area, near St. Vincent’s Hospitals and the infamous Kings Cross which seats about 70 people. The décor is contemporary with a wonderful mix of greys, whites & blacks, the patrons are surrounded by photographs of people and places of Malabar.
Malabar is a region of southern India, lying between the Western Ghats and the Arabian Sea, and comprising the northern half of the state of Kerala. Geographically the name is sometimes extended to the entire southwestern coast of the peninsula, called the Malabar Coast.
We heard a rumour that Chef Mohammed Sali often found his way out of the kitchen and enjoyed greeting & talking with guests. We were not disappointed. Chef Mohammed Sali is a very likeable man who you can tell has a real passion for his restaurant & tantalizing food that he creates.
The food itself was out of this world. We decided on the Malabar Banquet which comprised of Patti Samosa, Chicken Tikki & Dosai Masala for starters. Then for the mains we had the scrumptious Chicken Makhani, the irresistible Lamb Varutha, Mixed Vegetables curry with Basmati rice, Naan, Mint Chutney & Pappadums. The mains were a selection of mild, semi mild & a kick of Indian spices. Chef Mohammed Sali also recommended the Goan Fish Curry which was a mouth watering dish that did not disappoint!
Malabar is the finest place to sample the extraordinary regional Indian delicacies, created by Chef Mohammed Sali, with his brigade of master chefs, for a marvellous fusion of tastes. At Malabar, this unique offering will take you on a gourmet journey.
