Komala Vilas is famous with Singaporeans of every race. Don't expect the height of ambience -- it's pure fast food, local-style -- but to sit here during a packed and noisy lunch hour is to see all walks of life come through the doors. Komala serves vegetarian dishes in southern Indian style, so there's nothing fancy about the food; it's just plain good. Order the
dosai, a huge, thin pancake used to scoop up luscious and hearty gravies and curries. Even for carnivores, it's very satisfying. What's more, it's cheap: two samosas,
dosai, and an assortment of stew-style gravies
(dhal) for two are only S$8 (US$4.70/£2.65) with tea. For a quick fast-food meal, this place is second to none.
