Would that be from the Taste of Bengal by any chance?
Where else in this small town mate
I know the Duck starter
Well spotted on the duck Dan.
Anyway, according to the menu:
Masalader Badak: Finely shredded duck breast, lightly spiced and served wrapped in a puri on a bed of mint and yogurt sauce.
Lamb Jarjala: Cooked with garlic, chilli, mustard paste and cream - garnished with spring onion and red pepper.
Verdict:
Haven't had the starter yet though had a wee taste of the duck and it was good.
The Lamb Jarjala was very nice. I'm not good at picking out particular hints of certain spices (and not pretentious enough to pretend). It was medium hot, oniony, garlicky, very nice thickish texture and the lamb was melt in the mouth. Little or no tomatoes. What more do you want?
Being used to eating Punjabi dishes, I felt the background spicing was more subtle and less in-yer-face than the dishes I am used to - but a nice kick of chilli. No bad thing.
Overall, no complaints
Porn warning - first up the starter which I have just laid out for future eating:
Lamb Jarjala - looks quite bland but tasted lovely.
