Despite the fact that Dempsey has become a lot more touristy, it's really good that Samy's hasn't watered down their curries.
Bear in mind that there's no air-conditioning, so casual tees-and-shorts ensemble are the norm here.
Must-try signatures here are the masala chicken, fish bergedel and curry fish head.
We had:
1) Curry Fish Head ($27 for medium): Samy's version has got sourish assam undertones. The gravy's still lemak with the rich creamy essence of coconut milk, but the sour elements makes this a little piquant, a little lighter than the usual lemak versions. The fish was huge (so there was a lot of meat to go around) and fresh. The high turnover of this place is a good indicator that the seafood's bound to be fresh.
2) Curry Mutton ($12 for large): fresh, soft and tender. great spice level.
3) Masala Chicken ($4.70): seriously the best masala chicken anywhere. No contest. A definite MUST-TRY. It's potent and sweet and spicy as hell, but the thick paste will have you licking off every inch of this moist and tender chicken. Ask for the thigh bit, it's juicier
