Gorkha Palace, Gran Canaria (25th September 2015)

Price: €25
Score: 8.833

RECOMMENDED

The second curry of the tour and the boys decided to go to a local curry house,  a ten minute stroll from the hotel.  Upon arrival the boys created mayhem in the Gorkha Palace as the staff tried to accommodate the group with some table shifting, which unfortunately spilled over into disturbing a couple out for a romantic meal.

Once settled plain and spicy poppadoms were ordered with the accompanying pickle tray. This included a hot chilli, mint and coriander pickle which was well received by Tony, Lee and Ian.

So on to starters, Lee went for Paneer Shashlik,  Cauliflower Pakora for Tony and Simon went for Paneer Pakora. Starters scored a combined average of 7.334, Lee and Tony scoring an 8 for their first course, Simon a disappointing 6 for his which lacked a bit of flavour.

 

Mains next, Mixed Veg Korai  for Lee, Paneer Shashlick for Simon and Chicken Tikka Balti for Tony.  All scored well, a nine from Lee who particularly enjoyed his Tarka Dhall side dish.  Tony and Simon went for an 8 each.  Overall average score of 8.334.

 

Service was as you would expect and nothing exceptional although we were offered a complimentary liqueur after the meal, reasonable 7 scored.

 

VFM next and the bill coming in at about €25 euros was what was expected and on a par with other meals, 7.667 scored.

Overall score of 7.584.
