Passage Through India, Kuala Lumpur

235 Jalan tun Razak T. 03-2145 0366

It’s a funky place alright, huge building with tiny dining rooms and passage ways to pass to get to your table. But have a closer look and you realize that it’s really a regular Indian restaurant trying to pass off as an upscale establishment with upscale prices.

Food was generally good – we had the chicken dum briyani – marinated chicken cooked with the rice to allow the flavours to infuse into the entire pot. The paneer (cottage cheese) tasted average. What stood out was the fish tikka, an oven baked dish that was rather divine.

This “upmarket” meal for two came up to nearly RM100 / US$28.
