I have been eating north Indian cuisine here for quite some time, ever since i was still schooling. You could say I am their regular customer. This place is owned by a family, and the father of the family knows his regular customers well, and their order preferences too. He would also go around each table starting a conversation between his customers. Definitely something in which welcomes customers and considered as giving real good service too.
These are all refillable upon request and yes, you can have as much papadam as you like.
Lassi, though always served as a dessert, was what we ordered here as a drink.
This has always been my favourite drink whenever dining here. Lassi is a yogurt based drink, blended with spices or fruits. Lassi also comes in a savoury form back in the traditional days and can also be found in their menu here too. Here we have 2 lassis, one which is a mango lassi and the other, banana lassi. Their mango lassi was rich and creamy, full of mango flavour and bits in it. It was not too sweet either, and serves as a nice compliment to your meal, or as a dessert after. The banana lassi too, gave the same experience in the taste buds. Both are just wonderful.
We ordered garlic butter naan. When it was brought to the table, you could already smell its buttery aroma. It had a nice crispy outer layer to it due to its cooking method in a tandoor, which is just what u want. The naan had a chewy and light texture to it which allows one to enjoy it with the other more stronger flavours from curries and dishes. The taste and flavour of the garlic was evident, but did not overpower the whole naan with a strong garlic taste.
Not forgetting our basmathi rice, to go with the piping hot curry. The basmathi rice was done perfectly and when tossed, the grains fell separately, none sticking to each other. It was fragrant as well and accompanied the other dishes perfectly.
Kaju Gobi is one of my usual dishes ordered here. It's basically cauliflower and cashew nuts in a rich masala gravy. Though the Kaju Gobi did not bring a sting to the tongue, the spice in it brings out a nice flavour. The cauliflower was cooked al dente, and the cashew nuts still had their crunch to it.
Butter chicken masala is also one interesting dish, more towards a curry, incorporating the usual spices found inside curry and the rich and creamy texture of butter. The chicken was tender and moist, absorbing all the flavours from the masala. The gravy was delicious and was more towards the spicy side. The butter helped to balance out the spiciness of this dish.
The highlight was the fish curry. Here they have many different selections of fish masalas and curry. The one we decided to try was this one (shown above). This dish was packed full of flavour from the spices and chillies, and left the fish tender, coated with a rich layer of gravy. The fish was flaky and had all the flavours from the gravy of the curry in it. It was a perfect combination with the spices used in the gravy.
This was my favourite dish among the rest so it's definitely a must try.
