The delivery was 30 minutes late and the food arrived tepid.
The vegetable dhansak was weird. It was like someone had thrown in a truck load of chillies, realised they'd gone wrong somewhere, so threw in two trucks of sugar!! The sauce was watery and not thick with lentils and there were minimal vegetables. It tasted of hot sweetness, with none of the delicate balance of flavours between the hot and sour, which is what a dhansak is about. Horrible. It reminded me of a place in Brick Lane that told me they make their dishes sweet for western tastes. However I grew up with good Indian home cooking and this wasn't even close. The pilau rice tasted of cologne , which was even weirder!
In all, although my friend liked his mutton starter , that was it.
We paid over £20 for a naan and 2 poppadoms!!
I won't be ordering from here again.
