Have been here a few times now, and have always left happy. Its basic food, in basic surroundings. But you don’t care when you’re in there because its tasty as. Had a gorgeous sambal that was so surprising, had great flavour, and really enhanced the curry. Im really keen to get there on a weekend to try the stringhoppers! Its a really well kept secret…

Thanks Tess for your comments. Surprising that you and you friend cleaned up the plates and the ice kachang as well . Explaining to you that we do sell our own water and soft drinks is not telling off.

Just ate there. Got told off for bringing in a bottle of Mount Franklin that I never drank, just because I put it on the table, not that I didn’t order any desserts/drinks. Horrible customer service because of that. Won’t go there again. Such a waste, really, because the I actually thought that the curry was good. Unfortunately, the food portion was also pretty small.

Jessie’s curry was recommended to us by a friend. our first visit has become a regular enjoying every dish on the menu. The teh tarik and the vegetarian meal is something to die for. Jessie’s curry has become our favorite dinning since then. keep up the good food Jessie especially the ice kanchang

I guess I’ll need to try the place again. We had take away from there last night and while the breads were really good the curries were pretty ordinary.

Given the positive feedback here though and my closeness, I’ll give them another shot some time.

Food lover says that if I don’t get what i expect I get angry. Going on to say that Nasi Goreng has to be just so. Nasi Goreng what? You can see that the owners are Sri Lankan and lived in Malaysia. If you have only eaten “Bali” Nasi Goreng then of course the Nasi Goreng you tasted will be different. I don’t even know if they lived in KL, Nasi Gorng is different even from KL to JB. Indonesian Nasi Goreng varies from Medan to Kupang, only and idiot would think the dish the same in all places or from people with differnt origins. Try some Tahu Goreng from Mahsuri and some from Jimbaran. Same name, differnt dish. We seem to live by our previous encounters and not by new experience.

One of the true treasures, are her curry puffs. Easily the best curry puffs in WA! Been going there for the past 3 years and all I can say is that the food is great. She is a very hospitable host and I cannot recommend this place any higher!

I have been meaning to try Jessie’s for a while now, since some time before I saw it on the Beaufort Street Blog, and I finally found an excuse tonight for Vindaloo Against Violence Day (any excuse for a curry, really), and I have already decided to head back in the next week or so with a group so I can try more than the one dish.

The lamb curry, while generically named, was divine, and could easily rank up there as one of the best curries I have tasted. I would love to taste what they do with a saag lamb or vindaloo (or even beef, which is curiously missing on the menu).

The aloo paratha was, likewise, divine. I ordered it on the spur of the moment, and I don’t think I’ve had one that good anywhere.

Had I visited Jessie’s before I probably wouldn’t have mourned the closing of Suraj nearly as much.

CS, I hope you don’t think I’m as stupid as you are not to notice that your ip address and “foodlover_99″‘s are exactly the same. And also that you found the site by typing “Jessie’s Curry Kitchen” into google a number of times over the past couple of weeks.

As for your independent assessment of the Nasi Goreng, I think we’re already heard it, so if your plan was to back up this comment with one agreeing with your alter ego, then I think that failed.

If however, “CS” is actually your rationally minded split personality coming out, then I would definitely be interested to hear what a return visit to Jessie’s in a new frame of mind was like… So feel free to enlighten me.

As you would be aware though, the menu at Jessie’s is a mixture of Malaysian, Indian, and some Sri Lankan dishes, and stems from Jessie and Jeya’s combined heritage.

I await your review with baited breath.
