Curry tour 1 - Curry a la King




Vasco, Alice, PB and KB decided that the next month is going to be our curry tour month. We are going to at least one curry place every week in search of the best curry. Last week we went to Woodland for vegetarian Indian food. It was fantastic!

Today we went to Curry a la King. They do have a good range of curry choices from Malaysian to Indian. We ordered samosa (thumb's up), the chicken curry (KB said great), mutton curry (Alice's not so thrilled) and mutton biryani (PB not so thrilled, though he did like the rice). The food is not bad, it's actually half way decent (except that the meat was a bit chewy). But Alice and Vasco were not happy with the presentations. The dishes looked worse than they tasted. Another thing that Alice did not like was that there was only one waiter serving the whole restaurant, so the poor guy was practically a character from Diner Dash...just watching him running around like a headless chicken was stressful enough for Alice. The deco was really old, particularly the tables and chairs, they are really not comfortable. The last thing: Vasco had absolutely no idea about the bill, just handwritten papers...

Curry a la King: food, OK; service, stressful; deco, yucky.
Final verdict...6/10, it's not worth a second visit.
