Jassal Tandoori Restaurant

Rehavam Reza Tjokronegoro

I think the reviews do not justice to this restaurant at all.  I have patronised this place dine in and home order for maybe a 100 times over the years.  The food is good by KL standards and the prices are reasonable.The non-veg items are quite good.  They have really good paneer items.  The Tandoori platter is also quite good.  The Tandoori chicken in good, but can't really say it is great.  The chicken lollipops are spicy, like in India and the gravy is great to have with a beer.  What I like the best is the Malai Chicken Tikka.  I have taken Japanese and Koreans there and they have simply liked the food including the naans and tandoori parathas.

Cockroach at my table.  Admittedly it was a small one but it was still disgusting and terribly off putting especially after the waiter I pointed this out to squashed it with his finger and dragged it across the wall, I was pretty speechless at this point.After this occurrence I pretty much left the entire order at the table, only tasting the butter chicken just for the sake of my website review.When paying the bill they apologised again and offered some kind of BS explanation however they knew they were not seeing me again so there was no shame in still asking for the for the 130 ringgit.Here's what I thought of the food before the bug problem arose (and slightly after).Samosa was ok, but too oily, filling had reasonable flavour, but now I wonder what I actually ate.Mixed tandoori platter that is served on a sizzling fish shaped iron skillet was completely tainted by that fish flavour, every single piece of seekh kebab just tasted like fish, I will say that the chicken malai tikka that was away from the fish was actually quite nice.  Needless to say the fish tikka was not nice, instead of a nice tandoori masala flavour u get that raw fish smell and taste.Butter chicken looked good but was completely bland and devoid of any kind of tomato taste or smokiness or even tandoori taste, was extremely thick and creamy though, it was a tasteless, pointless dish.  Can't believe some ppl say this is one of the best butter chicken's in KL.Peas pulao incredibly had cold peas in it, obviously put into the dish right from the freezer just before serving, this was a first for me, I couldnt decide between the garlic naan or cheese naan so they helpfully suggested they would do a combo naan for me, this was a mistake, it has some decent garlic flavour but the cheese was wasnt really detectable and the naan itself wasn't a very good one, however maybe all their naans are like this.The beer I ordered and the free papads were probably the best part of the meal, apart from the chicken malai tikka, that definitely was reasonable.

Visited this restaurant with a colleague. They have a decent range of vegetarian dishes. We tried Veg Kolhapuri with Roti and Kulcha. The quality of food is very good. We also ordered Jeera Rice with Dal Tadka that was equally good.

How do I express my disappointment. I loved their previous food so brought 6 office friends there for a farewell lunch of one of my colleague. After the visit I decided it's our farewell to that restaurant. Never again!! Ever!! My friend ordered Mutton Keema fried rice. I sware it's beef!! My friend is a Hindu and doesn't eat beef. We asked the waiter if this is really mutton, and their gave a funny smile.  Food arrived very late, we reserved for God sake. The ice lemon tea that they charged RM 5 is a cheap skate "The O ais limau". Biryani was too dry. OMG fish biryani made of Dory fish!!!! How cheap skate.  I was so embarrassed in front of my non Indian friends. I asked for Rasmalai. It's RM 12 for dine in and and RM 10 for take away. I thought it's supposed to be the other way round. When I ordered they took a packed one which is in the fridge, put it inside a bowl and charge me extra RM 2. (Bowl rental I guess). I have too much to write but just decide guys out there. If you really want to go here.  When you can cheat with beef instead of mutton, nothing can be worst than that.
