The meals were quite small and almost looked dwarfed with the poppadom wedged in the middle of them. If you were really hungry, then you would need to order a bigger meal or extras.
Both curries had a pleasant flavour. I particularly enjoyed the Butter Chicken, however, I found that the Pork Korma had a couple of unsavoury fatty pieces in it.
We were pleasantly surprised to learn that the meals came with a free glass of ale, which we could swap for a small bottle of coke. This is an excellent offer.
The wait staff were polite and chatty and ensured we had a good evening; even offering a discount on the cappuccino they had forgotten to serve with the meal.
Overall, a pleasant evening.

I agree that the curries were on the small side but fortunately I wasn’t too hungry on the night. I enjoyed both curries but given that the Butter Chicken was advertised as a mild curry I felt it had a little too much heat. The Pork Korma was the right heat for a medium curry. I didn’t get any of the fatty pieces and enjoyed the heat from both curries. If I hadn’t known that the Korma was a pork curry I wouldn’t have been able to discern what type of meat it contained but it was most certainly tender.
$9.95 for a curry and a beer/coke. Definitely good value. My only comment would be that not everyone likes Coke and an alternative would be most welcome.

Another great review. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWent on Schnitzel night and had the chicken with pepper sauce. Dad had his usual steak and mum had fish. Mine was tasty but there wasn’t enough salad. The kids had Frog in a Pond for dessert and ate all of it. We enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteWent for dinner and had the Chicken Parmigana. We ordered entrees. When my chicken came out it was lukewarm and the parmigana topping had congealed into a solid mass. It must have been made early and sat waiting for us to finish our entrees. Very unappetising. I thought the salad had no dressing and only discovered it did when I got the bottom of the very small bowl. A disappointing meal.
ReplyDeleteHad the Warm Prawn and Chorizo salad on the night. Tasty but only 4 smallish prawns. Far too much red onion in the salad. It was all I could taste for the rest of the night.
