Title: Prince of India, Windermere, Lake District
Post by: haldi on October 29, 2015, 08:26 PM

Me and my wife went to the Prince of India at Windermere,  on Tuesday
Best curry house I've been to, for a long time
I had a vegetable Balti
Lovely simple flavour, with that something extra, that I can't make at home!
Fantastic sauce and vegetables cooked with still a little bite

Vegetable Rhogan Josh
This wasn't as expected but still delicious
Very tomatoey and moreish flavour

The naan was amazing
so light it nearly floated of the plate
It was seriously fantastic
It was brushed with melted butter too (wish I had one now!)

the poppadoms were served with 4 pickles/chutneys:-
the standard chopped onion with mint sauce, yoghurt rhata, lime pickle and an amazing garlic pickle
I tell you, that garlic pickle on top of a bit of poppadom was truly incredible
I can buy that stuff round here
I'm going to get some tomorrow

Wish I could go back again to this restaurant
but it's 170 miles away
Crying shame


the place was 3/4 full and the staff were polite and very helpful

If you are in the area, check it out
The bill was ?22
The only downside is that it's upstairs
I couldn't see any special lift, or help for anyone with mobility difficulties

here's a link

Haldi,

I ate there about 15 years ago and enjoy my meal, the only thing i didn't like was a pineapple ring in my dhansak which is a pet hate of mine.

Great review! Sounds good for a stopover. Of all things, you've put me right in the mood for garlic pickle and poppadoms! Must get some over the weekend. :)

I must'nt have been that thrilled when from I ate there the last time as nothing sticks from it, but as that was a while ago I'll definitely give it a go next time I'm over. Also, if it was
