nadodi kl launches new six-course tasting menu through tamil nadu, kerala and sri lanka

Nadodi is a South Indian and Sri Lankan fine-dining restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, run by the Cinnamon Group, and it now offers a six-course tasting menu alongside its longer nine-course format — a more compact way into the same cooking.

Executive chef Yavhin Siriwardhana draws on his Sri Lankan and Malayali heritage, working classics of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Sri Lanka through fermentation, curing, charcoal and careful temperature control.

What to Expect at Nadodi

The opening tidbit reworks thosai as two slender crisp cones with sambar and coconut chutney, piped with potato masala churned into a savoury, stretchy ice cream — served with a welcome drink of watermelon, tamarind and chilli. The Three Regions follows as the first formal course.

Further in: scallops with Momotaro tomato sorbet and chilled rasam dashi, warm ama ebi custard deepened with aged vadagam, and saffron biryani with blue crab curry.

Menus change, so treat these as the register rather than a fixed list.

For a tasting menu in Kuala Lumpur or modern South Indian fine dining in KL, Nadodi is the one that rewards the full sitting.
