Chillipadi is a sprawling establishment oozing out of Melbourne Central. The atmosphere is cozy and
relaxed, whilst the staff are friendly and efficient. We ordered the "finger cocktail bar" for entree, which
consisted of spring rolls, dumplings, samosas and other treats, all of which were crunchy and delicious.
For mains, I ordered the chicken curry with roti chanai, which was served in a small dish, the perfect size
for a quick dinner. The chicken was tender and the sauce was, for me, of an ideal richness and spiciness.
On this visit we were pressed for time, and upon mentioning this to the waiter, our meal was served
quickly. The menu is slightly illogical, resembling a Marie Claire cookbook more than an easily navigable
menu. The restaurant also offers a larder where customers can purchase soup stocks, curry pastes, and
wine.
