Jewel of India or Ruchis - Manuka?

Now I want a curry……well it is lunch time….why not?

We went to the Jewel and unfortunately so did the Indian cricket team so of course even though they arrived well after us they had eaten and left before we were fed – the 2 hour wait was excrutiating, even for the Bunny!

Thanks everyone – the Jewel it is, after the cricket turbinates tommorrow ……

I made a recommendation, but it’s disappeared – I blame IT issues at my end.

Short form was go to Jewel, and make sure you order the black dhaal. Ruchi have changed their naan and it’s a bit more charcoal than bread recently.

And apologise for all they’ve done to Pakistan!

Neither, I am boycotting Indian food.

Thanks Mælinar – I am going with a group, so not sure what the favourites are. My own favourites are the vegetable dishes -eg bahji, sabzi and the tandoori breads

Mmm Kingfisher…

I remember circa 2005 in India 75 cent kingfisher longnecks – 35 cent conterfeit malboro cigarettes – was a blast….

bunnycoat – I’ve dined extensively at both locations. The easiest way of recommending one over the other would be to find out what dish is your favourite, and I could tell you which I would go to for that dish.

The place in Phillip (Colbee Court) is Indian Affair.

Run by Gary Singh and wife (Surinder?), who used to give us discounts on good lunchtime food, and dinner if we brought guests along.
