Muthu’s curry is a Chettinadu cuisine restaurant located on 138 Race Course Rd, #01-01, Singapore 218591. The Race course road is a parallel street to the busy Serangoon road. Even on weekends, this road typically remains less conjected and easy to navigate. This road is littered with Indian restaurants that cater slightly up-market compared to some of the other eateries in Little India. There are a few more notable Tamilnadu, Chettinadu restaurants along this road, these include Gayathri, Anjappar, Sakunthala’s and Banana Leaf Apolo.
Despite the many options,
we here at Sinra recommend Muthu’s Curry. We’ve been a consistent customer
between 2019 till early 2023. The only reason we’ve stopped going is because we’ve
moved from Singapore.
At quick glance, the restaurant is well decorated with a large central kitchen
where some of the precooked food is displayed and where there seems to be an
oven. Around this central kitchen is a vast amount of seating area. There is a
section of the floor space dedicated to hosting events.
On the Muthu’s curry’s website, it states that the restaurant started in 1969 by their founder Mr. Ayyakkanu and his innovation was and currently is their signature dish - fish head curry. You will see this dish being ordered on many tables if you head down to the restaurant. Its certainly a dish for sharing as it comes in a large serving. However, we didn’t try this dish and in this blog, we are recommending another dish from them.
We recommend the “Chicken
Chukka Varuval”. The dish is a spicey boneless chicken stirfry with a
combination of spices, dried chilli, onions and etc. The result is a rich flavour
that we absolutely love. We recommend getting this dish to share and ordering a
rice set. Muthu’s curry have two types of rice sets. Both come with a cabbage kootu
which is cabbage cooked with small green chilis and lentils, and the second is
a tamanrind infused eggplant dish. The only difference in the sets are the rice
types. Its either with white rice or pulau rice. We like both combos, so pick whichever.
The awesome part of this is that the rice and the two vegetables are refillable.
They typically include a small basket of appalams (papadams).
We will refrain
from mentioning the prices of these dishes and the prices have been increasing through
the 3years that we’ve been dining there. This is however, inline with the remaining
restaurants along race course road as well as some other services in Singapore
post pandemic.
Here is a picture
of the food.
