We popped in for a drink but ended up ordering a couple of snacks. Had no idea what we were getting but asked waiter to recommend something. He was very happy to suggest some things, It was so delicious we ordered something else. It turned out to be one of the best meals we’ve had on our travels through Bangkok and Bali! Also extremely cheap so an unexpected gem

After visiting Batu Caves, we were quite exhausted and decided to have a meal at one of the restaurants along the row of shops nearby. There are plenty of eateries to choose from, and we ended up trying this one. It was a convenient option for a quick meal after the climb. We ordered fried rice (RM7.00), fried noodles (RM7.00), roti planta (RM3.50), roti bawang (RM3.00), roti canai (RM2.00), parotta (RM2.00), roti tisu (RM3.50), Ulunthu vadai (RM1.50), paruppu vadai (RM2.00), curry puff (RM1.50), and drinks including Teh Tarik (RM3.00), Teh Ice (RM4.00), Teh O Ice (RM3.00), and Milo Ice (RM4.50). The total bill came up to RM49, but there was a miscalculation on the receipt, and I was charged extra for something I didn’t order. Fortunately, I checked and was able to get a refund without any issue. The fried rice and fried noodles were just okay—nothing particularly special but decent for a quick meal. The roti options were much better, especially the roti canai varieties, which were nicely done. We also tried some of their snacks which was interesting but not really to my personal taste, and the curry puff, which was alright. Service was fine, and the environment was decent enough for a casual meal. If you’re in the area and need a convenient place to eat after visiting Batu Caves, this is an option to consider, but do check your bill just in case.

Very nice place with delicious food and very friendly staff. We visited the place to have a quick lunch after the Batu cave. They got like buffet. You pick the things and pay later. Price is also very reasonable, we paid only RM15 for two. Surely recommend this place.

Absolutely loved the food here! Authentic South Indian flavors – the dosa was perfectly crispy, idli soft and fresh, and the sambar was rich and tasty. The coconut chutney was a highlight Must try poori and masala dosa Masala dosa was crispy and flavorful, stuffed with delicious potato masala. Poori set was soft, fluffy, and perfectly paired with tasty curry. Special thanks to the lady who served us – she was polite, friendly, and made us feel very welcome. Her service added a personal touch to the whole experience. Definitely coming back again. Highly recommended!

It's a good place for breakfast and lunch after visiting the temple. The service was fast despite the crowd. Only serve vegetarian food but with many varieties. The Rava Thosai (RM4. 50) had generous amount of onion. We requested to add abit of sugar to the ghee thosai (RM4. 50), they were generous with the ghee and sugar. The ginger tea (RM3. 50) was really good, totally hit the spot.
