Anjappar Authentic Chettinaad Restaurant

Yesterday we went for lunch at Anjappar Chettinaad Restaurant at Jurong Point, Singapore. I was expecting the food to be typical South Indian style. But My expectation turned out to be wrong. 

Food: The food was too good. Their menu is very huge. They serve from Tandoori's to Dosa to Biryani to soups......almost everything. They serve Soups like Sweet corn Soup(veg/chicken), clear soup(veg/chicken), Hot and sour soup and also Tomato and mushroom soup. They have their specialities too named Chettinaad Aattu Nenjelumbu Soup, Chettinaad Koli Rasam and Chettinaad Nandu Rasam. 

They got  huge variety of food- starters include- chicken lolly pop,fish finger,fish cutlet,Prawn 65,Kaadal 65, Paneer65.etc etc, Main course include Crab curries, Prawn curries, Lots of varieties of chickens and Lamb. Vegeterians curries include Paneer butter masala, aloo gobi masala, bindi fry, Dal butter fry and many more. 


They have a huge variety of Dosa's and tandoori's too.



Ambience - The place was a bit small and crowded but that is expected of restaurant on Weekends. In evenings, There is a waiting list of guests. So it is advisable to be there before time on weekends for lunch or dinners. 

Service: The service was excellent. The food was on our table early than we expected. 

My Order: Hot and Sour Soup, Veg biryani, chicken Dum Biryani, and Paneer 65, Chicken Lollypop and a can of chilled Pepsi.



Hot and sour Soup (3.50 S$)


Veg Biryani (7.50 S$)


Curry with Biryani 


Paneer 65 (8.60 S$)


Chicken Dum Biryani and Raita (9.20 S$)


Chicken Lollypop (7.40 S$)



 The food was yummy.The soup was very tasty and spicy and sour...perfect in taste...it was not too spicy nor too sour... I'll say it was perfectly made.   


Veg and chicken Biryani came with Raita and Curry. The Biryani Rice was full of Flavour. Spices were nicely blended with rice. The quality of Rice used was also good. The curry was very spicy and tasted too good. But Didnt like the raita. There was too much Onion in Raita and also the pieces were quite big. The Paneer 65 was also good. My hubby liked the chicken lollypop too. He said chicken was soft and perfectly cooked. 

My Rating: 3.5/5

Ambience : 4/5
Taste: 3.5/5
Value for Money : 4.5/5
Service : 5/5

Happy Pepero Day !!!!

Today is Pepero Day in South Korea (November 11th). Pepero is a candy which is long, thin cookie biscuit stick dipped in Chocolate). November 11th is Pepero Day because it’s 11/11, which looks like fur Pepero sticks. It is like Valentines Day.


The Lotte Confectionary Company introduced Pepero to Korea back in the 1980s. Many people believe that the company invented this day to increase their sales. It sells almost two-thirds of it’s yearly total of these snacks in the two months before November 11th (Source: Lina Yoon Wall Street Journal 2006). What a marketing Strategy !!!!
To celebrate Pepero Day, people exchange boxes of Pepero that come in many different flavours and packages too.

Happy Pepero Day 11-11-11 ( 11 Nov 2011)




Love for food - Chakh Le India !!!!



I never Knew I loved and missed Indian food so much Until I went to South Korea. There were Few Indian Restaurent in South Korea. I always missed Cholle bhature, dosa, chowmein, shahi paneer, butter paneer, samose, All chats, Pani puri and all yummy Indian curries, dishes,soups and dessert which we eat when we go to Restaurant.

I decided to start a group on facebook which will give people taste of India through Pics. Initially It was just for fun, but slowly I got addicted to it and here we are now on Blogger .....

I'll keep posting Photos of food from restaurant in Singapore. I moved to Singapore in Aug 2011. I'll try to rate the food too. I have decided to rate the food of restaurant on four parameters: taste, Ambience, value for money, service. ( taken from a show on NDTV ).

I'm not a good writer but still I'll try to keep my posts creative.

I look for your courage and encouragement.

Happy Eating !!!!! keep sharing your pics ......

Love and Hugs
