    Authentic restaurant quality Indian meals in the comfort of your own home

    From the ordering process to delivery, Chef Akila has a well-oiled machine behind this business.
    The descriptions of the meals are spot on and extremely helpful in the case of heat (chilli-wise!). The meals themselves are easy to cook, and do actually cook according to instructions unlike many. They are ultimately delicious. Authentic flavour, quantity just right and the quality of the ingredients are remarkable.
    A box of Chef Akila meals arriving as a monthly treat or, indeed, as a surprise gift for family or friends, couldn’t be a more welcome delivery.
    I highly recommend.

    So far excellent

    Not tried all the order yet but very good quality.
    Only comment is that we thought the coconut rice dish had too much coconut and not enough rice. Seemed like 50/50 and we thought better with 60/40 or 70/30 rice/coconut
