There’s nothing familiar about the Malabar experience – it’s a restaurant that’s broken rules, be it the decor or the style of food. Malabar was the first of Hanmer Springs’ eateries to embrace Asian cuisine and having done so, it has attracted rave reviews.

Malabar’s name is inspired from the Malabar coast which runs from south of Goa to Cape Comorin on India’s southern tip. Malabar, the original land of pepper, was called ‘Black Gold’ and has fascinated travellers and explorers from time immemorial.

Malabar infuses fresh Asian herbs and spices with the creativity geniusof its chef. It’s not just about serving quality food, but rather it’s about creating a gastronomical experience like no other. They say people first eat with their eyes and then their mouth; this is what Malabar is trying to achieve. Using the freshest and locally procured products it wants to leave an everlasting impression on its diners.

Please enjoy your experience and we look forward to serving you our best, always.
