Karu's Indian Banana Leaf Restaurant - 808/810 Upper Bukit Timah Rd

Yummeh! Yummeh! Yummeh! Definitely a meal that was meant to be enjoyed with your hands and that was what I did! Been ages since I had briyani and a good one at that. So we headed to this place. Although it's in bukit panjang / along Upper Bukit Timah, one would not think that it would be crowded and busy but yes it was. We arrived, scanned in and got our seats. The gentleman gave us the menu and instantly and giddilly choosing what we wanted! The menu was sufficient although we would be expecting more but still, it was good. We ordered Mysore Chicken, Sotong, Lamb Briyani Set and fish curry. For 2 pax, that was alot. Oh, and not forgetting, 2 Teh Halia too. The staff there was really attentive and friendly even though the place was jammed packed even with ppl q-ing outside still. Food came shortly after. It was served on a banana leaf lah, how's that for authenticity. And then they piled on the food and brought our dishes out. Appetizing!!! The place is tucked along a road less traveled and that in itself makes it so rustic of sort whilst at the same time a bit out of the way. Also, yesterday ordering and payment system needs q bit more fine tuning. We'll, there's a saying, "Got food will travel" and Karu's definitely worth the visit. Food : 4/5 Staff : 4/5 Ambience : 3/5

Chicken Masala (SGD $7) @ Karu's Indian Banana Leaf Restaurant. . Since 1993, this stalwart casual eatery has been delighting diners with their homely South Indian dishes, potent curries with fiery kick, and wallet-friendly prices. Little wonder they still attract lomg queues during daily meal times. . Their rendition features a large bone-in chicken cut, over which is ladled a rich thick curry paste that clings to the tender chicken meat. . Potent, bright and sharp spicy savoury salty meaty flavours, with a slight lingering heat.

Wow ! Great place to enjoy home style Indian food from butter chicken to curry fish. Briyani rice is to enjoy with the fish and of course to get hot naan.

Food served on banana leaves Rarely seen in sg now of days. Went on a Friday afternoon for a late lunch restaurant was quite pack. Great service attentive stuff topping up rice n curry Chicken is well marinated mutton is soft well cooked doesn't have the distinctive odor Environment is clean Parking is limited

First experience eating off banana leaf in Singapore. Choice of briyani or white rice. 2 types of curry vegetables and papadam from the set meal. We ordered mutton, chicken and fish. Every item was great! The whole family enjoyed the meal. Shall be back soon!

Very solid Indian food. All the dishes were well made, nothing too salty. For a South Indian place, even their naan was amazing, came out hot and crisp yet tender. Reminds me of home cooked food. Definitely a must try
