Rogan Josh
The Rogan Josh a step up from any RJ I’ve had. Rather than a 7/10 meal, it was an experience of what RJ can be.
Tim Sharp Butter chicken
Butter chicken was the best I’ve ever had.

You have to try beef rogan josh and coconut curry for dinner. Both are done really well, so kudos to the kitchen team!

The arancini (fried rice it risotto balls) made the whole dinner. Loved the tomato and additional (?) sauce that were served with the arancini.
