M’sian couple in Adelaide find F&B success with MalayaLane
Geetha Ganesan and Nithyaraj Subramaniam run Adelaide’s first Malaysian-Indian restaurant.
Geetha Ganesan and her husband Nithyaraj Subramaniam, Malaysian-born, moved to Australia in 2022. They established MalayaLane, the first Malaysian-Indian cuisine restaurant in Adelaide, catering to the city's Malaysian community. The couple's journey began with a commercial kitchen and a takeaway business, Smatra Curry House. Geetha, a former banker from Kulai, Johor, learned cooking from her grandmothers at a young age, while Nithyaraj, from Ipoh, had F&B experience.
They introduced Malaysian flavors to Adelaide, including nasi kandar, banana leaf rice, and various curries. The restaurant's popularity grew, leading to a grand opening on April 11, despite being 30km from the city center.
