Nadodi means nomad or wanderer in Tamil and Malayalam, which is widely spoken across the Southern part of the Indian subcontinent including Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Sri Lanka.
All in all, the dishes can be moderately spicy but manageable. Some dishes feature modern European cooking techniques in traditional hearty stews, curries and soups.
The interior design features polished marble floors and black-and-white photographs which are sleek accessories used in this modern Indian fine-diner.

VERDICT
If you’re in KL for a short visit, I’d recommend this nomadic journey as it is the first time in tasting South Indian flavours in a new light.
I’ve been told that the restaurant will be moving to Four Seasons Hotel and the menu is expecting a refresh. Definitely worth a second visit to this restaurant.

I must comment the impeccable service of the Nadodi team. Not only was I given me a tour of the kitchen, we had many lovely photos and memories with the entire crew. ☺️
Looking forward to be back soon!
