Everytime as we pass by this Corner of Bukit Batok, I will tell him that I will like to visit the restaurant and my guy is rather amazed by my expressions as I told him I am not very sure what kind of cuisine the shop is selling since the facade did not leave any clues for guessing, moreover, its quite a distance from the road (where we are in the car).Athithi Garden is really a Gem, hidden in among the neighbourhood and probably get miss out from our sight due to its location. For those who are keen on North Indian Cuisine especially, I will highly recommend Athithi Garden as they had left a very good impression to me.They are a 2 Storey Shophouse with 3 tables of outdoor seatings. I would recommend diners to have the upper level seatings as the lower level were just too stuffy and oven warm due to that the kitchen was just beside the seating place. Here's their stairways up!Be pleased by such a classic looking environment ventilated with wall mounted fans and cassette air cons. The comfy cushioned chairs and sturdy semi wooden-glass tables were neat and tidy arranged across the upper dining area. Under the warm lantern lightings, it made the place cosy and one can actually free their mind upon settling in.Each table were readily prepared with a glass jar filled with drinking and a set of cups.A mixture of North & South Indian Cuisine from Athithi Garden, these two pages long of menu was said to provide too many but also not too little food to match up with one's appetite.I dont have much knowledge about Indian food specially when it comes to their small dishes. I'm glad that the lady at the counter was rather friendly and helpful in explaining the dishes.At the top level where beverages were all prepared. The place is suitable for chilling up with their alcholic beverages like "Tiger".Crispy papadum was included in the meal as expected. The rice came in a pretty rice bowl shape with attractive colors. What's more it had a pleasant sense. Initially we thought that they could have given the wrong order as we had ordered Chicken Biryani and where's the chicken?Hold your horses before asking them for an exchange. The big chunks of chicken were actually well tucked and cover up by these yellow thin and long ginger rice.I must emphasis that upon having our first mouthful of Athithi Biryani, there was a sudden sparkle in our eyes. This must be the best biryani I ever had thus far in Singapore! The dish was infused with adequate spices and was indeed different from what I had.Chicken was tender and easily shred off from its bone. Do dip them into the curry sauce given. At times , it might be a little spicy but one little trick - you can add some yoghurt in between for some cooling effects on your tongue. Butter naan were freshly made and comes in big portion and have to be shared. Each serving come in a basket of 2 and divided up into 2 small pieces with dolly paper attached to its bottom. The melted butter had boost its fragrance on the plain crispy naans.Perfect, Chettinad is a popular Non vegetables dishes among the North Indian ! Spicy and flavorful with freshly ground masala included. A definite matching for the naans. The taste was consistent and chicken were bite size.Drinks came last perhaps they had forgotten our order. Lime juice were not too sweet and best of all, that was actually done manually, hand-squeezed.Washing down all those yummy food with a cup of soothing mango Lassi to conclude my dinner. Chilled and refreshing drink after the spices, this Mango Flavoured Yoghurt drink is one of my Must Order Beverages in my North Indian Cuisine meal.If you were to ask if I prefer Wala Prata or Athithi, I will not hesitate to choose the latter for a wonderful North Indian Fix. Now that you know for sure, I will be right back in Athithi for more!http://www.umakemehungry.com/2014/03/athithi-garden-north-south-indian.html

We had passed by this restaurant many times but had yet to try it. Today we decided to give it a go. This is a two-storey restaurant, there are outdoor seats at the first floor and air-conditioned dining area on the second floor. The view on the first floor wasn't fantastic, so we decided on indoor.To me, Indian food isn't complete without a cup of mango lassi ($3.8). It is a blend of mango, milk and yoghurt. One cup is never enough! Beware that it is usually a very sweet drink, sending your blood sugar sky high.This was a big piece of garlic naan ($2.5) being cut into two. It was fragrant and chewy in texture. I am a big fan of naan, I can even eat it plain!The south Indian meal - veg ($5.8) comes with many small dishes. From left are soup, yoghurt, curry, vege, beetroot and dessert, served with a piece of crispy papadum. Indian cuisine is characterised by its unique blend of herbs and spices, the extensive use of herbs and spices also contributes to its exotic and intense flavor.This is Chapatti set ($4.5), it comes with Channa Masala and some tomatoes and pickled onion. Chapatti is a round flat unleavened bread made of wheat flour. It tastes rather bland and I would prefer to spread some gravy or meat on top and roll them into tortilla.The half Tandoori Chicken ($10.50) that we ordered looks very charred. The marination was fine but some parts of chicken were really hard and dry. I habitually picked out all the charred part and it took quite a while for this dish.Overall, the dishes was decent (except the charred part). I will probably come back again but will try some other dishes instead.
