Good food, very good service and very reasonably priced. Nothing fancy about the place and is a little away from the city center but with a GPS, not very difficult to trace. A little spicy so best to request for the lighter version.

The restaurant Turmeric is sightly North of Melaka and therefore not easy to get to if you are staying near the old town. However, the owners are delightful people that would do whatever they can to make your experience enjoyable. Food is very nice and traditional South of India. Kids liked it very much. We didn't try enough specialties but... More

Clean and efficient. If you want simple tasty and homemade Indian food head to turmeric. Was a bit hard to find the place but glad we did. No bells and whistles but real value for money.

We stayed in genting for a week. And barring the visit to KL where we tasted South India food at Saravana Bhavan and Sangeetha, the family was waiting for a good meal in Malaysia. The reason for this twofold. We are vegetarians and it was Ramadan time and the buffet had 69 dishes of which 66 were Non veg items,... More

We love all sorts of Indian food and had been to this restaurant once before but because their menu is extensive, we decided to go back for another visit. We shared a starter of mushrooms which were the most delicious thing ever and I could have eaten twice as many. My husband then had the Chicken Thali and was impressed... More

We are hardened Pak Putra fans but decided to try Turmeric for a change, especially as it is Southern Indian cusine and so the food will be less creamy and less heavy than Pak Putras. Its is a bit out of the way but easy to find and was even available as a Search item on our Garmin Nuvi GPS.... More
