Tandoori Palace, Costa Teguise, Lanzarote (30th September 2016)


NOT RECOMMENDED

2nd day in Lanzarote with the boys watching some Ryder Cup in the afternoon and some beers, pool and Lee's diving show in the hotel pool moved to tequila sunrises and other cocktails in the hotel bar before a stroll to the Tandoori Palace for tea.

Paneer pakora was the popular choice with 67% choosing that option as starter along with a Sheesh Kebab and Chicken Pakora. The paneer was a little dry but some of the chutneys moistened the batter.

Mains included Veg Balti Madras, Mushroom Vindaloo, Chicken Curry, Chicken Jalfrezi, Chicken Madras, Chicken and Mushroom Balti. Mixed feedback with the Mushroom Vinda being a bit bland, the Veg Balti being flavoursome packed with plenty of fresh veg. Simon seemed to struggle with his Chicken Madras but I think that was more down to Simon than the madras.

Overall an entertaining evening of spicy food followed by some more drinks!

Masala Lounge, Costa Teguise, Lanzarote (29th September 2016)


The 2016 boys holiday to Lanzarote started with the disappointing news that Mr Codd would have to drop out due to severe back pain! The rest of the group pushed on, this including the usual of Simon, Lee, Ian and Paul with the addition of the returning Harry and the virgin DJ Daz.

The first day was the usual, beer at 6am at the airport, hotel, pool, more beer, cards, beer and a couple of mali p's and tequila sunrises then off for a curry.


So, day 1 curry was at the Masala Lounge. Starters included Chili Paneer, Onion Bhaji, Chicken Samosa, Veg Samosa and Chicken Pakora! Very enjoyable, moist bhajis, spicy panner, all seemed to be enjoyed.

Mains included Veg Madras, Chicken Madras, Chili Paneer, Chicken Karahi, Chicken Saag and Chicken Neeligri with a selection of breads with a high degree of garlic; luckily Ian and Paul both went garlic cheese nan so they won't suffer at each others expense in their shared room.

A minor hiccup with Simon's accompaniments was soon rectified and the mains were demolished with satisfying results.

Overall a good curry, nice atmosphere and friendly staff.
