October 29, 2010: My Restaurant

January 2016: My Restaurant has closed.

Sticky Fingers raving close My Restaurant, noting inexpensive together with delicious nutrient together with to a greater extent than than thirty vego options, thence nosotros decided to brave the terrifying lands across the Yarra to banking concern fit it out.

My Restaurant is a pretty unassuming looking place, tucked away inwards a fairly unassuming component division of Windsor. The generic name, functional slice of furniture together with big bain marie didn't generate a lot of excitement but a quick glance at the carte together with nosotros were sold. My Restaurant create Indian together with Malay food: rotis, dosai, murtabaks, mee together with nasi goreng together with a arrive at of Indian curries. And it's cheap! We're talking $6-$8 for most meals - a maximum of $10 for combo plates.

I went for 1 of the combo plates - a roti meal, amongst 3 curries, four pieces of roti together with or thence raita ($10). The curry choices for the roti repast come upwardly from the bain marie but in that location are enough of options: I went amongst a chickpea masala, mixed vegie Madras together with sambhar daal.

The get-go affair to banknote close this repast is the roti: cooked fresh together with to perfection, these were or thence of the best rotis I've sampled. The curries were a mixed bunch - the chickpea masala was the clear stand-out, amongst a tomatoey sauce that was rich was chilli together with spices; the daal was skillful companionship for the roti, but could accept used or thence pickle or chutney to spark it upwardly a fleck together with the mixed vegies were soft together with saucy, but a fleck lacking inwards flavour. Still, the roti was thence wonderful that you lot solely needed vaguely decent curries to brand this an fantabulous dinner.

Cindy is a huge fan of dosai, together with couldn't resist the masala dosai, stuffed amongst a mild white patato curry together with served amongst chutneys together with sambar. The dosai was wonderfully crispy, together with the accompaniments were all fantabulous - I specially enjoyed the spicy chutney.

Despite its fearsome size, Cindy made her means through almost all of her dosai, a will to its tastiness. She was careful to move out a footling fleck of room spare to sample something from the sweets menu. She wandered upwardly to guild a roti bom, but was convinced past times the lady behind the counter that the tisu roti ($5.50) was the improve choice.

The tisu roti is a crispy cone of roti breadstuff slathered amongst condensed milk - it's similar a delicious volcano. I'm certain it's terrible for you lot but it's very, really skillful - my 'taste' turned into a half-share only because I couldn't halt going dorsum for more.

My Restaurant is a neat footling house - the staff are friendly together with helpful, the meals amazing value for coin together with the carte interesting together with veg-friendly. If nosotros lived on the southside there's no uncertainty we'd endure regulars - amongst Bismi together with Nila nearby though I'm non certain that we'll brand the trek across town to see also often.

My Restaurant has received specially positive reviews from bloggers looking for authentic Malaysian-style nutrient inwards Melbourne - meet Citrus together with Candy, Deep Dish Dreams. It also got a nice write-up from The Age, dorsum when Matt Preston was yet chasing downward interesting together with inexpensive places for Epicure.
