Location: Kumarakom Resaurant, Opp DLF, Ramapuram, Chennai
Verdict:
We a gang of 31 attacked Kumarakom with the only goal of filling our tummies with good food. Thanks to our colleague who had sponsored for the mass meal. Blocked several tables and started ordering for the first 15 minutes starting with Hot & Sour Chicken Soup to appetizers made of fish, chicken, mutton, beef, veggies to main dish.Some guys were little disappointed as there was no tandoori or afghani chicken available for lunch...was surprised as I told them about this visit even before 2 days. Such a careless attitude must be avoided whilst running a restaurant.
Service was toooooo slow...It took more than 2 hours for us to complete the meal after cancelling few items as they take long time.
Here is my feedback on the soup/appetizer/main course that I had tasted.
Hot & Sour Soup - had one by two which was a decent quantity, little spicy.
Karimeen Polichathu - Top-notch starter, bit pricey. A must try dish over here.
Paneer Tikka - Paneer pieces were little hard. Just don't go for it.
Nettili Fish Fry - I am not an ardent fan of nettili fish. Just had a single piece which was crispy as expected.
Kerala Parotha - Soft and large in diameter. Only concern is it was made of maida. Would be nice its a wheat parotha.
Steam Rice - Simple boiled Basmathi rice. rice grains were lengthy.
Kerala Rice - As they took more than 20 mins, we have cancelled it for our table. But other guys in the next table got it.
Ayila Fish Gravy - Bit liquid, but a very good combination with steam rice and fish fry
Prawn Masala - Regular gravy with some pieces of tiny prawns. Quantity was good enough for 3 people to have along with rice or parotta.
Chilli Beef, Beef Fry & Beef Ularthiyadhu - I don't eat beef. But my friends were happy with all 3 varieties.
Chicken Fried Rice - Both the quantity and the taste was nice. Can be easily shared by 2 people.
Ada Pradhaman - It was a delicious payasam made with vellam. All were happy to end their meal with this desert.
Arabian Pulpy Grape Juice - Never expected such a divine grape juice. Tasted little like a vine with lot of grape pulps on it. A Must to have drink over here.
Masala Papad - Bit salty. Otherwise just ok.
Veg Meal - Decent veg meal with kerala rice, sambar, moor kulambu, appalam, veggies,..
Fruit Salad with Strawberry/Vanilla/Butter Scotch Ice cream - Had cut fruits like apple, pine apple, white & black grapes, pomegranate with a single scoop of ice cream. No complaints on this.
Overall bill was 19,885 Rs. But we negotiated to have 2000rs discount.
If you go as 2 or 4, its fine to have food within an hour. But when you go in a larger group make sure some one goes early and order the items as they take 20-30 mins for several dishes.Otherwise you will end up 2 to 3 hours to complete the treat.
