5/5

The parsi dhansak was a real treat , the main curry was every bit as good as our local Indian restaurant and take away ,flavours simply poured out , we did top it off with a good handful of chopped coriander which lifted it to another level. The tamarind chutney unfortunately was not to our taste , we have had this before at our local which was less bitter than yours ,but as it is a side it did not make a great difference

We're so pleased to hear how much you loved the flavours in this curry, Jon! We're sorry to hear that the tamarind chutney wasn't to your taste, but glad that this didn't impact on your enjoyment of the meal.
