Betel Leaf Authentic Chettinad Restaurant at Lebuh Ampang

As were looking for a place to dine last Thursday, we noticed a new restaurant at Lebuh Ampang- Betel Leaf Authentic Chettinad Restaurant. It is on the 2nd floor, just above an imitation jewellery shop.

At the entrance

We were quite late in arriving there, and being a weekday, it was not crowded at all. The setting of the place is rather quite posh, and caters for the high class.

Arrangement & decor inside


Hand drawn paintings could be seen decorating the walls. Apart from that, they also had a section of those bronze/metal statues that was show-cased nicely, which was for sale as well.


We ordered Garlic Nan that was accompanied by Pudina Chutney and Green Peas Gravy. The Nan was quite soft and went along well with the spicy Green Peas Gravy. Chicken Briyani that I insisted with the leg pice came with some really hot & spicy chicken curry and a boiled egg.Just for your info, I'm a BIG fan of chicken briyani and won't miss a chance of having a plate, whenever and wherever I can. But not those plain briyani rice with fried chicken. The one that I'm referring to is the type where they cook the rice together with the chicken in it.Yummy!

I was quite satisfied with the Briyani, but disappointed that I could not have their fried Goat Brains.It is available only on Sundays ( and they didn't mention it on their menu), and they get it fresh & straight from their farm, according to the manager on duty at that time. So, one of these Sundays, if you see anyone ordering the special item, it could be me!!! One other item on their menu that I am aiming for is their 'Prawn Thosai'.

What's left on my plate after dinner

If you are looking for a decent Indian dining which is a bit on the 'high side', you can give Betel Leaf Authentic Chettinad Restaurant a try.
