Want to know what we think/thought?
Arriving into Spain I didn’t know what I wanted to eat. I had a friend shoot out cuisines & we settled for Indian!
Yes my first meal in Spain was an Indian meal!
We sat outside & glanced at a family eating happily together during their midday siesta (how inspiring?) as well as a couple who gazed at one another!
My friend & I decided that we’d order from the set menu as we’d be able to eat more (for less) & split some of our meal with one another! So we had a mini feast. Concluding that our eyes would be satisfied as well as out stomachs 🙂
We received a complimentary Dosa with two chutney sauces (one of mint flavouring & the next a spicer tomato mix)! The mint was perfectly smooth & complimented the Dosa exceptionally so I stuck with the mint!
The onion bhajis & vegetable samosas came next! I have had my fair share of bhajis yet this tandoori coated bhaji made my day!!! With no exaggeration I loved the bhaji the softness & taste!
The Saag Paneer was tasty I haven’t had one that has been unfavourable yet (I’m sure you will all be the first to know if & when I do) I also try to save some of the Dosa enabling me to eat it with the Saag Paneer & that in itself is a treat!
The garlic naan was potent! You are able to see, taste, & smell the garlic which I did not shy from! I just ensured I had a mint close by!!!
I’m a fan of curry also & the Cauliflower/vegetable Curry wasn’t as spicy as I’d hope but it was smooth & pleasant to eat in the heat of Madrid without having to call the fire brigade! This was accompanied by basmati rice which is consistently good in any Indian restaurant I have visited!
The white wine complimented my dishes entirely & I can say that I was full by the time we were ready to leave!
As mentioned prior we were not rushed, we spend a total of (approximately) 2-2 1/2 hours here & not once did we feel rushed or as if we were an inconvenience to the staff!
Thank you Shapla!!!!
**Note that in Spain they offer a “Summer Red Wine” also known as Tinto de Verano. This is simply a red wine with a carbonated soda added to it. It’s extremely common for locals & some compare it to Sangria.
