MANAM at Clarke Quay captivates the hearts and stomachs of foodies from all over the island through their unwavering commitment to delivering an unforgettable South Indian gastronomic adventure. MANAM believes that a good dining experience is not confined to just the satisfaction of the tastebuds or the stomach. It is a physical, emotional, and almost spiritual affair that honors age-old traditions and has the utmost respect for food and love for the family.

Traditional South Indian cooking has no shortcuts, from its hand-crushed spices to its sun-dried herbs and fresh, organically raised farm animals. Every MANAM dish passes the highest standards of ancestral South Indian cooking, starting from the appetizer to the last spoonful of dessert.

Highlights

Authentic South Indian recipes: South Indian cooking is a labor of love that begins outside the kitchen: Indian chilies gracefully drying under the sun, spices releasing their robust flavors with every pounding of the pestle, and meats with no chemicals or antibiotics. Enjoy classics like Butter Chicken, Meen Moilee, and Malabar Chemeen Curry the way they do it in Southern India.
Curated wine selection: A good wine perfectly complements the rich flavors of MANAM’s stews and curries. Their lineup of wines includes French champagne, Italian prosecco, and American zinfandel.
Three-course set menu: Priced at an affordable S$21, MANAM’s lunch set includes a few of the restaurant’s most-loved favorites: soup of the day, Chicken Biryani, a choice of one starter or curry, and a soft drink.

MENU: Order one (or both!) of MANAM’s soups, Nalli Elumbu Rasam (Spicy Mutton Broth) and Kozhi Milagu Saaru (Spicy Chicken Soup), and your first slurp will clue you in for what awaits: flavor, flavor, and lots of flavor. MANAM’s menu offers soups, veggie and non-veggie starters, curries, rice and bread, Thosai, and desserts. Their beverage menu includes coffee and tea, cocktails and mocktails, beer, spirits, and wine.

MUST-TRIES:

Crispy Okra Fry, S$15
Kari Varuval, S$23
Malabar Chemeen Curry, S$20
Elaneer Payasam, S$9

LOOK & FEEL: MANAM has swanky, glittery interiors that are a marriage of extravagance and comfort. Their sparkly, minimalist wall décor provides an exciting contrast to the restaurant’s rich, flavorful dishes.
