So yeah, the question is: who are these KariGuys? Well, they are these 2 Indian guys (brothers) who are running a restaurant in Lucky Garden, Bangsar serving curries which are not the typical spicy Indian fare. Sounds a bit confusing, I know. I was kinda confused too when I stepped into the restaurant because its deco and furniture were quite unlike any typical Indian restaurants. Well, for one, they have very Chinese-looking marble-topped tables and ornately carved oriental … [Read more...]
