Indian Food: Krishna Curry House

Status: Serve no pork.

Venue/landmark: AsiaCity area, next to Sri Sempelang restaurant at a near end of shophouse; Panampang.

Time open – close:

Basic RM per meal: RM 5.00

This is another northern Indian cuisine outlet, pretty famous with the tourists and locals, likely thanks to the boss’ social grace. Service is snappy fast, even on crowded time as no employees are allowed to slacken. The main branch in Penampang is where the boss operates and God, he is always so kind to students by discounting the total. So head to Penampang o my fellow students for a cheaper meal and better service as compared to AsiaCity area (which was rather a drag compared to the other).

Basic meal on banana leaf consists of rice with tons of vegetable, vege dhal, curry, ressam and the Sabah tea the tarik which you can replenish as many times as you can possibly eat. Along with this, you may order whatever side dishes you wish to complement the meal and whenever a waiter passes by with a tray of fried fish nuggets take the opportunity to chomp in a piece (and be charged extra RM2.00 later, don’t say I didn’t warn you).
