WHAT WE ATE...

We ordered some curries...

‘Beef Korma - mild beef prepared with almond and cashew nut sauce ($19.95)’

‘Pumpkin Masala - diced pumpkin pieces cooked with special spices ($16.95)’

‘Malai Kofta - potato and cottage cheese balls mixed with dry fruits and cooked in almond sauce ($16.95)’

‘Rogan Josh - authentic lamb curry from Kashmir, cooked in onion and tomato, finished with fennel ($19.95)’

We also ordered some ‘Pulao Rice - basmati rice cooked with cumin seeds and finished with saffron ($4.50)’

Plus, two serves of the ‘Garlic Naan - fine plain flour bread finished with garlic ($3.50)’.

Out of the curries we picked, our standout favourite was the Pumpkin Masala which had a big hit of spices and tender, sweet pumpkin. Unfortunately, the meat in the other curries was a bit tough.
