Review of "Aussie Mick's" British Indian 2 Go Restaurant - Kingsley, Perth:So, "Willyekerslike" (who has just emigrated to Perth
) and I finanally travelled to "Norf of the River" to try out Aussie Mick's recently opened British Indian restaurant and to hopefully meet the man himself.
We had poppadoms (with various dips) for starters, followed by Chicken Tikka Vindaloo, Chicken Jalfrezi, Pilau rice, Keema Naan and Peshwari Naan.
Here are some photos (sorry about the quality, they don't really do the meal justice...and we were far too busy scoffing the curries, to worry too much about taking photos!):
The "Meal for Two" (minus one of the Pilau Rices...and a few other items that we'd already eaten!):
Chicken Jalfrezi:
Chicken Tikka Vindaloo:
Pilau Rice:
Everything was very enjoyable indeed!
The Naans were great, with a good amount of tasty filling. The Pilau Rice was nice, fluffy and delicately flavoured (with very generous helpings, too boot!). The Chicken Tikka Vindaloo was nice and tasty with a good (I would say "right") amount of "bite" for a Vindaloo. The Chicken Tikka was nice and succulent and delicately flavoured. The sauce was a great texture and flavour. The same was true of the Chicken Jalfrezi.
I (we) thouroughly enjoyed all of the dishes and certainly would be more than happy to be served them in any British Indian Restaurant. We will certainly be paying more visits to sample Mick's other curries.
We didn't divulge our identities until after the meal. Of course, Mick was nowhere to be seen, because he was busy churning out dishes in the kitchen.
Wendy (Mick's wife) and her restaurant staff were delightful, happy, smiley, polite and attentive. But Wendy did seem to panic a little when we finally asked "where's Mick?" and revealed to her how we knew of him!
We did get to meet Mick, Raj and others of Mick's team (in his kitchen) and quickly exchanged pleasantries. I hope we didn't embarrass him too much! Hopefully we will find more time, for a more detailed chat, on a future visit.
Needless to say, Mick and his team are doing themselves (and himself) proud!
Well done Mick (and all of your team)! Thanks for the great meal...and keep up the great work!
If you are ever in the area, give it a go, I doubt you'll be disappointed!
