Malabar - Santa Cruz

Had dinner there, enjoyed most of our food. it was easy to say what vegan was on the menu. the gobi manchurian never arrived, but we had enough to eat. fresh mango salad was great, and so was the dosa. the mango curry was so. the menu says that the minze chutney is not vegan, but the waiter said that it is vegan and the menu has a mistake.

The menu is now dominated by fish. we didn't want to go back.

I was on so many vegan sites, including one with a Michelin star. that's almost so good. If they're vegan, they'll have to come here. so incredible. I recommend the roti paratha and dessert. it often changes, but it is homemade by the owner woman. Today it was an eukalyptus cocooseis with home made chocolate and rose water. the lotus root kofta was like a hearty chai (not sweet at all) curry. also the Auberginen-Dosa and Erdnuß-Bordi were very good. I don't know why I thought it was a good idea, but I don't recommend tante noodles. it was delicious, but not almost as good as the other dishes.

I visited Malabar yesterday evening with two friends, so we could share some dishes. the menu shows vegan options with a w we started with two redis that were delicious. we also had a tofu appetizer, tahu gareng. the menu says it is a roasted tofu dish with a tamarinde and ananas glaze, but it seemed a block of tofu with glaze on it and the tofu was bland inside. I had my favourite dish from this restaurant, the tempeh la la la la la la la la. the tempeh is crispy with a sweet sauce. my friends enjoyed their dishes a huge dosa and steak diane. the interior of the restaurant is beautiful with candles and open seating. but we visited live music. the music itself was nice, but it was very loud and made it difficult to talk to my friends. the service is sometimes immaculate. the meals of my friends were delivered before me and I had to ask if the waiter had heard my order. it also took some time to get our jack. I came here because my friends wanted, but my experiences from pastness made me a little bit careful, especially when the music is too loud at our visit.

Five stars for flavor, presentation and plant based options! One of my favorite places in Santa Cruz! So worth the money for the quality and quantity. What a treat!
