Friday Dinner@Khansama Tandoori

Long weekend for me but back pain acting up again. Seems to be like what the doc says, rest and muscle relaxant are the only way to go unless the pattern or symptons of pain changes. Anyway, caught Iron Man on friday night, another Marvel superhero movie. Before I go into that, if anyone likes North Indian food, this one we went to was really good.

Tucked away at Science Park 1, Science Hub, Level 2. Only 2 tables was seated when we arrived about 7:30 pm. The decor and ambience definitely indian. To warn, the smell also authentic. The menu selection was huge but prices are reasonable. Arachaat, tandoori chicken, tandoori tiger prawns, fish curry, butter chicken, butter naan, cheese naan and garlic naan were on the cards.

Araachaat came in a small bowl filled with pineapples, beans and some cripsy pieces, all drenched in colourful sauce of extreme taste. It will wake you up ! The tandoori chicken was tender but it was another tandoori that steal the show. The tandoori tiger prawns, 12 prawns out of their shells which was seasoned with all the tandoori spices they could find in Singapore. It was bright orange-red and the taste not for the norm, extremely savoury and tandoori !!!

Then came the naans, fish curry and butter chicken. Naans are good especially the cheese one, it was so cheesy that one would thought they have finished up Italy's whole year cheese production. The butter and garlic naan are more subtle but with a crisp as you bite through. And it goes so well with the fish curry and butter chicken gravies ........ :)

Came up to about $25 per pax. Definitely worth coming back for the Naans and Gravies.
