Why it matters

Why Devi's Corner, Bangsar is worth your time

Bangsar is known for Western cafes and bars, so a banana-leaf restaurant shows the older Indian side of the neighbourhood. Choosing a cheaper, simpler place also gives a sense of ordinary Malaysian Indian eating, away from the tourist circuit.

The lack of detailed sources is a reason for caution, not a reason to avoid it: treat this entry as a lead to check on the day. If your party includes strict vegetarians or Jain travellers, the South Indian vegetarian restaurants listed elsewhere in this guide are better tested. Devi's Corner suits flexible eaters who want a quick leaf meal in Bangsar.

How to experience it

Wikivoyage lists Devi's Corner at 9 Jalan Telawi 2 in Bangsar and describes it as serving banana-leaf meals at lower prices than the nearby Nirwana. That is the extent of the detail in the pages we opened, so there is no confirmed menu, opening hours or vegetarian policy to quote here.

A banana-leaf meal usually means rice served on the leaf with vegetable sides, dhal and curries, with refills offered, but each restaurant differs. Ask what is included in the vegetarian version, whether the vegetable dishes are cooked separately from meat, and whether any food avoids onion and garlic. Expect to pay less than at the more established Nirwana next door, per the same source.

Because Bangsar has several choices, it is sensible to walk along Jalan Telawi, look at the menus and the crowd, and pick the restaurant that fits your group.

Plan with confidence

Small checks that make a better meal.

  • Confirm hours before going
  • Ask what vegetarian dishes come on the leaf
  • Ask whether vegetables are cooked apart from meat
  • Compare the menus along Jalan Telawi
