Nepalese Tandoori Restaurant

• NEPALESE; SHEPHERDS BUSH. STRAIGHT IN THE BIN.

  Probably the worst takeaway curry I have ever eaten in my life.We usually use the Kathmandu Inn on Seven Stars Corner. It serves top quality Nepalese curry; with the right balance of spices; star anise, cardamom, Coriander, etc... And the sauces are rich and tasty. Delicious. However, they are a bit on the pricey side, and the delivery driver is like a little old lady, complaining to us about parking etc., and taking ages to get here. So we thought we'd try the Nepalese in Shepherds Bush as a change.It was certainly more reasonable; and the staff are really very friendly and polite. However, what good is that if the food is so poor?We ordered three curries; A Lamb Rogan Josh; a Lamb Dopiaza; and a Chicken Patia. Rogan Josh is supposed to be cooked with capsicum, fresh tomatoes, spices and coriander. What we got was simply stewed mutton in a disgusting sickly sweet cream. The Patia was so sweet; it tasted like chicken breast in cherryade. And the Dopiaza was simply the same as the Rogan, creamy sweet gloop with some onions added. Hungry as we were, we found it to be completely inedible, and chucked the whole lot straight in the bin.We also ordered Samosas and Onion Bhajis to start. Both were poor. And the Samosas were £2.50 for two tiny little triangles, which we thought was taking the mick a bit.Everyone seems to think their local curry house is the best; however, being a cook myself, this really was the pits. We're going back to Kathmandu Inn. The service might be poor, and the dishes expensive and miserly, but this latest experience has reminded us of one thing - you get what you pay for,

• Great takeaway

  Only eaten in the restaurant once or twice, but have used Nepalese Tandoori for delivery regularly for the last ten years without ever having any problems. The food is consistently good quality, hot and arrives in good time, and always has some extra poppodums or pickles in there. The staff are always very friendly on the phone and have never got an order wrong - and also send us a greta christmas card each year!Highly reccomended for lazy nights in!
