Filterworks experiencing Sungkai at Tandoor Restaurant

It is my unspoken habit to go to Tandoor at least once every month. Since it opened a buffet line during last Ramadhan, I went there three times that month for Sungkai. I wasn’t going to miss it again this year. And I sure wasn’t disappointed. The ambiance was so cozy, it was less noisy and the aroma that filled the air was amazing.

Tandoor has an exclusive mixture of Indian, Italian and Arabic cuisines on its menu. I quickly went to the main draw of this buffet – the mouth-watering Lamb Mandi, also known as Talam. It is actually a popular Arabian dish which has perfectly cooked, moist rice with very tender lamb. The lamb is flavourful and you can just taste the spices in every bite. Also, the Lamb Mandi is enough to feed the entire restaurant unless everyone decides to go for seconds. It is available every Sungkai so you won’t have to worry about it not being served when you visit.

Less known to a lot of people who go to Tandoor for Indian and Arabic food, their Italian dishes on the menu is worth trying too. I personally love the pizza there. As for desserts, their homemade ice-cream has a unique taste so I recommend that for those looking for something sweet after the main course.
$20 for adults and $12 for children is a great catch and value for money. What more? It opens until 2am for Sahur. So don’t forget to visit Tandoor for Sungkai this Ramadhan.

For the first time, Tandoor.com Restaurant is extending its cuisine to Arabian and Italian. Well, they have introduced some of the dishes during the Ramadan period and now they have a more extensive menu. I have tried their Arabian dishes (lamb mandhi) and Italian (the pizzas) and they don’t disappoint at all. Even the Chicken Shawarma is good too. Ever since, the takeover by my friend from Kausar Cafe, he has revamped the management and also improved the quality of the food.

Because of the introduction of the new menu, the owner decided to do a special promotion for the patrons of Tandoor. Now if you spend more than $50 on a single receipt, you are entitled to choose one of the dishes from Tandoor. You have a choice of salad or Hawaiian pizza or half chicken tandoori or the chicken shawarma.. Awesome deal especially when you dine in for three to four pax.

This promotion is valid until mid October 2015. My personal favourite dishes are the Lamb Mandhi ($25, good for 2/3 pax) and the Seafood Marinara Pizza (simply amazing). Of course, I still love the original Indian menus but with a new addition of cuisine, Tandoor Restaurant will definitely bring more patrons to try out their new dishes.

Just refer to the menus that I posted below for your perusal. It’s not the complete menu but I shall include the rest in my next post. For bookings, you can call 245 0182 or 888 6617 or 896 2886.

My favourite pizza – Seafood Marinara “!2 pizza and my toastmasters friends couldn’t believe that it was from Tandoor Restaurant

Another personal favourite of mine – Lamb Mandhi

The chili paste mixed with the garlic sauce is the best combo – I used it for my lamb mandhi and also the pizza. My friends love it as well. A good substitute for Tabasco.

We had a good lunch session the other day at Tandoor Restaurant

Like I mentioned before, Tandoor is doing a special promotion for patrons where if you spend more than $50 on a single receipt, you will be entitled for any of the dishes below. My recommendation is the pizza and the chicken shawarma.. So bring your families and friends along and enjoy the delicious dishes made personally by Chef Taj.
