Over dinner the writer ordered 1.5 servings of chicken curry with naan, nasi goreng, tandoori cream chicken and a pineapple lassi, and the nasi goreng — rice wrapped and baked inside naan — was nothing like expected and the most memorable dish. With a parking lot behind the building, Rama & Bavana is easy to reach even right by the lake, and dinner leads straight into a walk around Suseong Lake. ## Good to know - **Location**: 86 Yonghak-ro, 2nd floor, Suseong-gu, Daegu (facing Suseong Lake) - **Dishes ordered**: Chicken curry (1.5 servings), naan, nasi goreng, tandoori cream chicken, pineapple lassi - **Parking**: Parking lot behind the building - **How to order**: Ordering screen on each table *as written by the visitor on Sep 20, 2026* Don't you have those days when you crave something a bit different from your usual food? I had one of those days, so I went to Rama & Bavana. At first I only planned to have chicken curry and naan, but as I scrolled through the menu photos, so many dishes caught my eye that I ended up ordering way more than I meant to, haha. That day's order was 1.5 servings of chicken curry with naan, nasi goreng, tandoori cream chicken, and a pineapple lassi. Some of the dishes looked completely different from what I'd imagined just from their names, which made the meal even more memorable. ## Finding Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch: the building and entrance ![Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch sign lit up in the evening](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-01-bvp4f-900.webp) This is the lit-up sign at Rama & Bavana in the evening. Even though it's on the 2nd floor, the name 'Rama & Bavana' stood out from outside the building, so I found it right away. ![Exterior of the building with Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch on the 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-02-pcuua-900.webp) There's a parking lot behind the building, so parking was easy too. ### A Daegu location that leads straight into a Suseong Lake walk Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch is right by Suseong Lake, so it was great for a walk after the meal. The weather has been nice lately, so eating and then walking felt really good. ### Where to park at Rama & Bavana: the lot behind the building ![Parking space set up behind the building](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-03-1o8f1-900.webp) Parking is notoriously hard around Suseong Lake, but Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch has parking space set up behind the building, so I could park comfortably. ## Ordering from the screen on each table instead of a paper menu ![Menu list shown on the tabletop ordering screen](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-04-k21wq-900.webp) ![Indian food menu screen showing photos of dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-05-4gf3y-900.webp) Each table has an ordering screen, so I could pick from the menu while looking at photos of the food. I originally only meant to order chicken curry and naan, but as I scrolled through, there were so many dishes I'd never seen before. Besides curries, there were rice dishes and tandoori dishes too, so I spent a good while deciding what to eat, lol. ![Curry and tandoori dishes selected on the ordering screen](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-06-mqcck-900.webp) ![Vertical view of the Rama & Bavana menu screen](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-07-1i1g0-900.webp) What we picked was 1.5 servings of chicken curry with naan, nasi goreng, and tandoori cream chicken! For drinks, we ordered a pineapple lassi. Just from the name, I had no idea what nasi goreng would look like when it arrived — more on that when we get to the food photos :) ## Inside Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch: seating and mood ![Interior of the restaurant with wood-toned tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-08-hnkpm-900.webp) ![Warm-toned interior of Rama & Bavana](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-09-5zyxj-900.webp) ![Interior view showing the inner seating area](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-10-11hff-900.webp) The inside was full of wood-toned tables and chairs, giving it an overall warm and cozy feel. ![Tables spaced comfortably apart in the dining area](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-11-r9qkp-900.webp) ![Window seating with an ordering screen on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-12-t3hdg-900.webp) The seating area felt spacious, and the vibe by the window seats was a bit different from the inner seats, which made it fun to look around. The ordering screens on the tables also caught my eye. ## Chicken curry (1.5 servings) with naan, nasi goreng and tandoori cream chicken ![A full spread of Indian dishes on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-13-ddfvf-1200.webp) India is a country I've always wanted to visit, but since it's too far to go easily, I don't often get the chance to eat Indian food. So it was great to be able to eat it at a proper Indian restaurant like this. That's why I ended up ordering all kinds of different dishes, haha. ![1.5 servings of chicken curry with naan, split into two bowls](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-14-1s7v6-900.webp) What I was most looking forward to was the chicken curry and naan. I ordered 1.5 servings of chicken curry, and in the photo you can see two small curry bowls. That's not two different curries — it's just the 1.5 servings split into two bowls. Even looking back at the photo now, it looks like I ordered two kinds of curry, lol. The naan that came with it was big, so it was easy to tear off pieces and dip them in the curry. I felt like it would've been a shame to skip the naan when coming for curry. ![Close-up of the large naan and chicken curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-15-162f2-900.webp) ### The surprise: nasi goreng served as rice wrapped in naan And the dish that surprised me most that day was the nasi goreng! Honestly, just from the name I thought it would be something like bibim guksu (spicy mixed noodles). But what arrived was a round, wrapped rice dish. It was so different from what I expected that the moment it arrived I went 'wait, this is nasi goreng?', haha. ![Nasi goreng cut in half, revealing fried rice and cheese inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-16-ykw2q-900.webp) Sauce was drizzled on the outside, and when I cut it in half, there was fried rice and cheese inside. Since it was rice wrapped in naan and baked, it looked totally different from the fried rice I usually picture. I took photos of the outside, and then cut it open and took more photos because I was just so curious. ![Tandoori cream chicken topped with cream sauce and grated cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-17-uln0t-900.webp) ![Close-up of a piece of tandoori cream chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-18-4jbje-900.webp) The tandoori cream chicken had grilled chicken topped with cream sauce and grated cheese. It came out as several pieces on one plate, so we nibbled on it here and there alongside the curry and nasi goreng. Looking at the close-up photo, the sauce-covered chicken looks tempting all over again :) ![A glass of pineapple-flavored pineapple lassi](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-19-12p4y-900.webp) The pineapple lassi was great too. It had a pineapple flavor with a delicious yogurt-like feel! It was nice to take a sip between bites of food, and it's a drink I'd want to order again next time. ## Is Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch worth a dinner in Daegu? ![Table scene at Rama & Bavana after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner-20-1qxj1-900.webp) At Rama & Bavana, I did get to enjoy the chicken curry and naan I originally wanted, but unexpectedly, the dish that stuck with me longest was the nasi goreng. I can still vividly remember that moment of expecting bibim guksu and instead getting rice wrapped in naan, lol. Ordering the tandoori cream chicken alongside meant every dish looked different, which made taking photos fun too. If you're craving something a little different from your usual meals, I'd recommend trying the curry, naan, and nasi goreng together at Rama & Bavana. And if you like pineapple yogurt drinks, be sure to order the pineapple lassi too :) ## Where it is - Rama & Bavana Suseong Lake Branch (라마앤바바나 수성못점) - 86 Yonghak-ro, 2nd floor, Suseong-gu, Daegu, South Korea - 대구광역시 수성구 용학로 86 2층 - 35.8259023, 128.619135 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%9D%BC%EB%A7%88%EC%95%A4%EB%B0%94%EB%B0%94%EB%82%98%20%EC%88%98%EC%84%B1%EB%AA%BB%EC%A0%90/@35.8259023,128.619135,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@quiet-menu-turn/rama-bavana-suseongmot-nasi-goreng-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
