A poor pickle selection imo, onions cut too large and lack of coriander(?) and what was that soy sauce type 'pickle/chutney'? WRONG!
Chef's Recommendation, Chicken Panch Mahal, was a huge disappoinment and tasted like minced chicken with bisto. I wish the curry house standards agency could decide what mild, medium or hot really is. On the menu my dish was listed as medium when this was clearly mild as milk. The Saag Bhaji wasn't too my taste either. Paratha just average.
Score: 4/10
Highlight/Odd moment? Dukes arm wrestling in the Victoria afterwards with tales from Pete Stilly of arms snapping at previous arm wrestles between butch men. And to end the evening, being turfed out of the pub by surprise celebrity barmaid Simon Amstel.

I thought it really lacked atmosphere and the service was a little chilly but I can't complain about the food - thought it was excellent, and good value, too.
And it was a cracking night - forgot how cosy the Victpria is, a real secret treasure that place.
Scotty - have you worked out how to post music files on this?
I didn't like being stuck in the deepest dungeons and thought it was pretty cramped. I couldn't really complain about the food... Thought it was pretty good...
Brilliant night all round, and really looking forward to the next one!
