    Very tasty

    Wow just wow. I’ve been a fan for Indian food for over 40 years. I spent 5 years mastering authentic Indian cooking. I am from the uk and have traveled a lot and lived abroad for 7 years too.
    I stopped enjoying Indian takeaways and supermarket ready meals once I mastered the authentic taste and restaurants are hard to find. Found only 1 in all my years.
    The food came frozen well packed in a wool wrap with ice packs. You can cook from frozen. I ordered a mix of dishes including some sauces to try.
    It was mind blowing the flavours and quality.
    It’s very over priced and says for two. However I love my food so had the 500g for myself. Shame they don’t offer 600g then perhaps I could share with adding some nan bread or side.
    I would 100% buy again but perhaps as a treat due to the price. Better than any Indian ready meals once or takeaway.
