I Visited Shankar Mahadevan’s New Restaurant in Dubai!😱
In this episode of In Your Neighbourhood, our host Bianca Saurastri, Content Head at Curly Tales Middle East, visits Malgudi in Motor City, Dubai — a new South Indian resto-café co-founded by the legendary singer-composer Shankar Mahadevan.
From music to meals, Shankar Mahadevan takes us through the story behind Malgudi, his love for South Indian food, the flavours that remind him of home, and why Dubai felt like the perfect place to bring this concept to life. Bianca also steps into the kitchen with him, learns one of Malgudi’s signature recipes, and sits down for a full South Indian spread filled with filter kaapi, comfort, nostalgia and lots of food stories.
In this heartwarming conversation, Shankar sir opens up about food, music, memories, family, Dubai’s Indian community, and how a simple meal can feel like home when you are living away from it.
Watch this episode as we explore Malgudi Motor City, discover the story behind Shankar Mahadevan’s new Dubai restaurant, and find out why South Indian food is so much more than just idli and dosa. Malgudi’s UAE launch has also been covered by Curly Tales as part of Dubai and Abu Dhabi’s growing South Indian food scene.

Mulbagal dosa is available at many places in Hyderabad. The best restaurant is Nanis Restaurant, jubilee hills
Hyderabad
Try coorg idly here
Yaha jada tar log hindu musalmaan me ladh rahe hain vaha kuch log dubai me business khol k paisa kama rahe hain .
Pls open in hyderabad also..
I hate him in music
Tatte idli is new???
Use correct logo of Al Beiruti
Thatte idli is not new. It’s an age old thing in Karnataka and the name comes from Kannada as well. Being a South Indian, Shankar Mahadevan needs to get facts straight.
I HAVE BEEN FOR THE KARAMA BRANCH TWICE IT WAS GOOD .
Glass me lighting😂
Bianca be butchering every pronunciation there is.
🥰🥰🥰🥰 Curly tales to kamya jani ka hota hain ,, aap kaun ho plz bataiyega 🥰🥰🥰🥰
what is this earning from music and singing investment in hotel industry atleast music school Mai teaching kar ke apne Indian and classical music Ko grow karte 😢
Whatever it is…. Dosas and all the Tiffins which we get in Bangalore, nobody in the world can get that taste !!! Karnataka is the best, and nobody can beat it for South Indian tiffins and breakfast!!
Andhra … please stick to biryani; nobody can beat them!! Dosa: not sure why they make big dosas!!
Nice video 🎉🎉❤❤
Thate idlli was first introduced in Dubai by Sri krishna bhavan restaurant way back in 2018 after Sri krishna bhavan opened in karama, later on other restaurants followed, Sri krishna bhavan also introduced Davangere masala dosa too with other authentic delicacies like Maddur vada etc…
Kitchen is so hygiene compare to the restaurants in India …in India unhygienic kitchens and completely stale food
Dubai is the best place to spend your black money. And Restaurant is the best place to make money
Dai lalgudi yoo palkudiyo enag road kadi dosai ku ethu ellam edu aguma. 45 min ninu dosa sapudavangala. adi pavigala simple foods ella over complicate panni entha western mairandi mathri mattitingala da. Varaum varum naga varum soon wait
Indian food ❤
Bro weeks ago I posted on twitter about his current songs literally cant agree this man.
Overhyped restaurant very average
Using Black money to invest in Black Dubai to convert into white in Catering Industry where there are Huge Chance. All Filmstars , Celebrities have Restaurants in Dubai
Iday, so-called hyped BENNE or VENNA when we put on the dosa here in AP or Telangana, people will not even look at it. But anything that is made in Karnataka it becomes news. Lol.
Kisiko New York mein Indian Chef ki hotel mein booking nahi milti aur kisiko Dubai mein.. log bhi paagal hain. Ghar mein toh in logon se basic dosa bhi nahi banta hoga.
Looking so beautiful girl 😊
2:31 proud to be maduraikaran ❤❤
It's always North Indians who copy ideas from Karnataka, including its heritage, food, and even restaurant names like "Malgudi." Instead of creating something original, they're making profits by using South Indian culture and cuisine.
Cringe max
Veg restaurant! This guy hyping it like first class restaurant
Man i love his voice.. now i am just in love with his food.
Wow
Over hyped and pricy: not worth ….there are better ones in UAE
Nice
