We had dinner at the 1980's restaurant during a family trip to Wayanad in Kerala. Due to time constraints, we dropped in here for dinner on the eve of 24 December around 8 pm. The place was packed with people. There was an overflow of crowd. Lucky for us the management was managing the crowd with tokens. After 30 minutes of waiting, we got to our table. The entire place was furnished to give the visitors a rustic feeling. The interiors were well done. On checking with the waiter, the place was famous for Malabar cuisines We ordered Kerala parota, nice pattiri, ghee rice, chicken masala and beef roast. We were in for a surprise. The parrot was a little thick and we thought it may not be tasty but was mistaken. The pattiri was really soft and very nice. The chicken masala was a very different combination of spices and gravy. It came with 3 big pieces. The beef roast was the star of the day. The meat was cooked to perfection with the perfect blend of hotness and spices and went well with the ghee rice. After dinner, we had lemon tea at the tea shop located outside and it was really good. It is the perfect place for good food with a traditional setup.
