Ate here last week, had a special biryani, missus had a CTM and got a madras to pick at aswell.
Biryani simply the worst ever, tastless and hardly any on the plate, veg curry average.
CTM, im no high class food critic but i can tell when just a coconut block and shed loads of sugar have been used, very syrupy and sickly.
Madras just pure dogshit. and i have had better naans from asda. 
But on the plus side the mint sauce with the poppadums was very nice and the mango chutney was puer quality.

This restaurant in my opinion is the best indian restaurant i have been to in the south west.  The service is fantastic, the food is amazing.  If anybody does try this restaurant and fancies a spicey hot curry then i advise the staff curry that is on the menu.  But in all honesty i would happily eat any dish from there as i have been doing for the past 11 years.

This was the base made up for a CTM, firstly the base was made by using:-
4 onions
1 red pepper
1 tin of chopped tomatoes.

The veg was added to ginger and garlic paste being ently fried then water to cover. Then left to boil for half hour.  Then half a tsp of garam masala, half a tsp of salt, and a tsp of mix spice (turmeric,paprika,cumin,coriander,curry powder).  Then a tablespoon of pataks tandoori paste/(masala paste) was added, then cooled and blended.  back in the pot and on the heat and 2 tablespoons of sugar was added along with an unmeasured guess of 4 tablespoons of golden syrup and half a tablespoon of almond powder and a full tablespoon of coconut powder.  To finish off a knob of butter was put in as he said this will help keep it tight and congeal it in the fridge when cooled.  Then all he did to make CTM was to add the meat 3 ladels of base and 2 tablespoons of the chilled CTM base and hey presto, and a drop of single cream to garnish
