A well deserved star....taste-wise.I was certainly curious about the food at this Indian Restaurant that is Michelin starred...i.e. how different it would be from other Indian restaurants that aspire to be Michelin rated but are not quite there yet. It is featured in the Michelin guide for 2017. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you can smell the nice and complex aromas & flavors coming from the kitchen. While this has a nice affect on the appetite...I guess they don’t intentionally spread th
I was certainly curious about the food at this Indian Restaurant that is Michelin starred...i.e. how different it would be from other Indian restaurants that aspire to be Michelin rated but are not quite there yet. It is featured in the Michelin guide for 2017.
As soon as you enter the restaurant, you can smell the nice and complex aromas & flavors coming from the kitchen. While this has a nice affect on the appetite...I guess they don’t intentionally spread the kitchen’s aromas in the seating area ... it just happens by chance . But if intentional, then I’d say it’s a good strategy.
The SEATING consists of small tables BUT there is enough space so you can have your conversations.... whilst undisturbed by other people’s conversations (unless they are really yelling about Donald Trump, Taxes, etc.)
The seating and ambience are rather simplistic...no fancy Indian arts or designer furnitures.... but it’s comfortable. Besides, WHAT REALLY MATTERS is the food!
The MANGO LASSI has a slight TWIST about it (maybe it’s more common than I think but I certainly haven’t seen this twist in other restaurants)...it had a small amount of red-colored concentrated squash (made from rose, lotus, lily, raisins and some fruit-extracts). Its red colored traces are clearly visible in the orange colored lassi immediately when it’s served ....BUT the red color DISAPPEARS quickly if you stir even a little bit.
Anyway, The resulting taste is ACES IN MY BOOK .
Quantity of the drink is probably a bit smaller for the price of $38.... so, the quantity could be increased a bit... me thinks🤔 .

The FISH TIKKA appetizer IS ONE OF THE BEST I’ve had anywhere so far. It was served on a sizzling platter and mixed with the usual stir fried cabbage/onion. The portion size is good (normally one might expect smaller portions from a Michelin starred restaurant .... BUT NOT HERE!). Next time I might just order 2-3 portions of this appetizer and forget about the mains .

Among the mains, CHICKEN CURRY (KADAI version) was also a standout. When you order Chicken Curry, they ask you which TYPE you’d like - e.g. Kadai, Vindaloo, Korma, Jal-Frezi, Masala, etc.
The KADAI CHICKEN CURRY had great flavors and was STRONGLY spicy. So, if you don’t want it too spicy, then mention whilst ordering the Kadai version.

The VEGETABLE CURRY was another tasty choice . Pretty much all garden vegetables competing with each other in a slightly tomatoey gravy.... simple ingredients transformed into something so tasty!

BREADS- Kashmiri NAAN was basically a naan with an inner layer of red-colored sweet paste. Normally, I don’t like the naan to have anything sweet inside it.... BUT THIS ONE WENT GREAT WITH THE SPICY KADAI CHICKEN, and even with the moderately spicy Veg Curry.

To summarize, this place with a rather simplistic ambience, justifies its Michelin star based on the TASTE and ATTENTIVE SERVICE. It has branches in SAI YING PUN and QUARRY BAY and I hope to try them soon!
