Our take: Machan's Kitchen stands out for its authentic South Indian and Tamil non-vegetarian cuisine, particularly its biryani and curries.
The Bucket Biriyani, available in both chicken and mutton, is a consistent highlight, with the 3-pax chicken version at $30 being substantial enough for 4 people.
Reviewers praise its flavour and fragrance, though note the chicken tends to be breast and bones.
The Meen Poondu Kolambu (Garlic Fish Curry) is frequently cited as exceptional, and the Chicken Kothu Paratha is also well-regarded for its flavour.
While the Mongolian Cauliflower with sauce ($11.10) offers a unique, spicy-sweet option, the prawn dish ($16 for 6 small prawns) is considered less value for money.
We think this is a strong contender for quality South Indian food in the area, with a pleasant atmosphere and attentive service.
The total bill for three people can reach around $100, including service charge and GST.
Verdict: A highly recommended destination for authentic South Indian and Tamil cuisine, especially for groups looking to share a flavourful biryani bucket.
