This is one of my favourite local food in Melaka.
Tandoori chicken and butter garlic naan at Pak Putra is one of the best I've eaten. Juicy, smoky (with charred pieces), tender and absolutely delicious.

Their Naan bread is always fresh and soft. Pak Putra is a famous restaurant in Malacca for its tandoori chicken and Naan. They have a normal range of Naan to go with the tandoori chicken. You can choose from plain, cheese, garlic, a mixture of some (but of course there will be more expensive), and the interesting Kashmir Nan.
When you are in restaurant Pak Putra, Naan and Tandoori chicken is a must try. And i personally loves their mango lassi drink. They have other food in northern India, but i have never try.
The chicken is marinated with herbs, spices, curry, turmeric, garlic, ginger, red pepper and a whole lot more not-so-secret secret ingredients, grilled to perfection, not too much or too dry. The chili powder gives the chicken an ultra-bright red color. The chicken comes with delicious Pudina (everything seems to be good here).

When you're hungry after a meal of delicious and finger licking good tandoori chicken and naan, head down to Taman Kota Laksama Pak Putra restaurant. Pak Putra's tandoori chicken was very tender and moist and the mint sauce to go with it was superb!
