This restaurant is very popular. Before we set off, I saw a friend check in at this restaurant on WeChat Moments. It happened to be opened by a friend of our driver, but there was no discount for meals. It was delicious! However, this restaurant is at the foot of the mountain where we live. After eating, we took a walk and climbed the mountain to walk back. It is a cafe during the day and a bar at night.

The location is very advantageous, located at the highest point of Ella, with a large garden in front of the door. Now the entire valley can be seen from the restaurant&#39;s observation deck. The most famous curry rice is a dozen different curries with different rice. Although the price is not cheap, it feels worth it~

Waiting from 4:30 to 7:00, the meal is finally served~ Although I didn&#39;t order meat curry this time, the light yellow Buriyani rice with rich ingredients exuding the aroma of cinnamon is paired with eight side dishes and a bowl of special jam~~~

The eggplant in this restaurant is more domineering , almost all the water in the eggplant strips is fried, the dry fried eggplant strips are candied and then seasoned with fried garlic, onions, minced ginger, green peppers and salt. The taste is strong and the flavor is strong. Although it is a bit too strong to eat directly, it is very comfortable to eat with rice~~~

Take another bite of the orange-red fine powder next to it, which turned out to be the thick coconut meat in the kitchen just now. The coconut meat is ground into powder and mixed with chili powder and turmeric. Although the snow-white coconut flakes are covered with a bright coat, the aroma and taste of the coconut flakes are not affected at all The curry leaves and pandan leaves are used to enhance the flavor, and the pepper and ginger powder are used to add a special spicy flavor to the chili flavor to enhance the flavor. The sweetness of onions and tomatoes is used to balance the impact of the flavor. The stimulation is immediately dissolved by the sweetness and coconut fragrance. The more you chew, the more fragrant the coconut is mixed in the rice, which enriches the taste and adds flavor~~~

There is also a dish that looks like pickled mustard next to it. The taste is different from that of bean sprouts and pickled mustard, with a clear curry flavor and pepper spiciness~ A closer look reveals that this thing is the big pot of banana flower shreds that was soaked in the kitchen just now~~~

There is also something that did not appear in the previous two times~ yellow garlic~ The boss boiled the garlic fibers and then pickled them with turmeric and spices. The garlic grains are very soft and almost garlicky, with a hint of sweetness. Even people like me who cannot eat raw garlic can eat it~~~

The green beans that were available in the first two restaurants were not on the table, but were replaced by curry okra~ After scooping a spoonful of ginger, garlic and spinach and sprinkling it with broken pancakes, the scooped Buriyani was submerged~ Each dish here has its own unique flavor, making the spice-flavored Buriyani have various layers of taste from soft to crispy, and a rich taste of sweet, spicy and salty~ The only drawback is that there are too many side dishes, and if you scoop too much, the taste will be too strong. If you scoop less at a time, you have to add more rice, and finally go out with a round belly~~~

This curry has no soup, rich dishes, strong flavor, spicy and non-spicy curry, and more spice powder. It is spicy and stimulating, sweet and salty~ The earliest one is the opposite. There is a little soup left in each dish. It is mainly non-spicy curry with coconut milk flavor, sweet and coconut milk flavor, and the taste is more fusion~ The curry of the affordable one has a homely taste, mainly spicy, with random and appropriate ingredients, and the flavor of the dishes is very uniform~ In general, the curry in Ella is really good, plus the climate is cool and the air quality is high, it is a pretty good place~~~

This restaurant is very popular. Before departure, I saw a friend punching in the circle of friends. It happened to be opened by our driver&#39;s friend, but there was no discount for eating, kouheng! However, this restaurant is at the foot of the mountain where we live, and we walked back after eating. The day is the cafe, the night is the bar rhythm.

The location is very superior, located at the highest point of Elle, with a large garden in front of the door. Now the entire valley on the restaurant viewing platform is unobstructed. The most famous curry rice is served with more than a dozen different curries with different rice. Although the price is not cheap, it feels good value for money~ Waiting for seven o&#39;clock from 4:30, Finally opened the meal~ Although there was no meat curry this time, the light yellow Buriyani rice with rich cinnamon aroma was full of eight side dishes and a bowl of special jam~ This eggplant is more domineering, and the water of the eggplant strips is almost all fried. Take the dried charred eggplant strips with sugar stains and then season with fried garlic, onion, ginger, green chili and salt. The taste of the charred flavor is strong. Although some tastes are too heavy directly at the entrance, it is not comfortable with the following rice~~~ Another bite of orange red next to the fine end, It was the thick coconut meat in the kitchen just now, grinding the coconut meat into the end, mixed with chili powder and turmeric, although the snow-white coconut bran was covered with a bright coat, but the aroma and taste of coconut bran were not affected at all~ and then the curry leaf leaf was added to the fragrance, Let pepper and ginger add a different flavor to the flavor of the pepper, and then let the sweet taste of onion and tomato to reconcile the impact of the taste~ the entrance stimulation is immediately dissolved by the sweet taste and coconut fragrance, the more chewy coconut bran mixed in the rice, Rich taste and increase flavor at the same time~~~ There is also a seemingly mustard thing next to it, between the taste and sprouts and mustard, there is a obvious curry taste and pepper taste~ Take a closer look at this thing is actually the big pot of banana flowers that was soaked in the kitchen just now~~~ There are the same first two times Nothing appeared~Yellow garlic~The boss boiled the fiber of the garlic, and then used turmeric and spices to pick it up. The garlic grains were very soft and rotten, there was almost no garlic, and there was a sweet taste. Even people like me who can&rsquo;t eat raw garlic can enter it~ The first two have not appeared on the table. Four season beans, but curry autumn sunflower instead~ In a spoonful of ginger garlic spinach, sprinkled with chopped pancakes, the Buriyani was flooded~ Every dish here has a strong flavor, so that the spiced Buriyani has a layer of taste from soft to crisp. And the rich taste of sweet, spicy and salty~ The only drawback is that there are too many side dishes, too much taste is too heavy, once less, you have to increase rice, and finally go out with a round stomach~~~ This curry, there is no soup, the dishes are rich, the flavor is strong, Spicy and non-spicy curry are used, spice powder is used more, spicy stimulation and sweet and salty~ The earliest one is the opposite, each dish has a little soup left, mainly coconut milk flavor of non-spicy curry, sweet and coconut milk flavor, taste more fusion~ and the cheap curry, The whole taste is home-cooked, mainly spicy, the ingredients are casual and appropriate, and the flavor of the dishes is very unified~ In general, the curry of Ele is really good, plus the cool climate, the air quality is high, quite a good place~~~
