Masala Zone

Got a Grand thalis, with chicken bangalore, medium spiced, was good but not enough, all the sides were good, only down side was the rice was only warm enough to eat other wise enjoyable.

A vegetarian friend kept on recommending this restaurant to me, so a couple of days ago (22 Feb 2011), I decided to give the restaurant ago (Soho). The restaurant is quite a spacious – seating around 150 people the staff are friendly and explain the menu quite well. The evening that my friend and I went, the restaurant was very quiet with about 20 other customers, we asked whether we could occupy a table for four allowing us to stretch out on this quiet night. To our great surprise they denied us this pleasure, stating that those tables are only for parties of four, we would have understood if they are were busy. We ordered two different lamb dishes and a range of vegetarian accompaniments. The lamb dishes were terrible, the lamb was dry even though both dishes were swimming in sauce, it was also noted that the base source was the same on both dishes with added spices to differentiate between them. This meant that you could taste the fresh uncooked curry flavour, opposed to a sauce that had been cooked specifically for that dish. We were very disappointed with those two dishes; however, my vegetarian friend was correct about their vegetarian dishes they were very nice.

Would we go back? Not really.
