Pity
the
minimum
is
one
star,
‘this
deserves
a
minus
5.
There
were
three
of
us
an
another
table
of
three
who
had
been
served
their
food
when
we
arrived.
There
were
no
other
customers
all
evening.
The
waitress
could
not
answer
our
questions
about
food
items
on
the
menu.
Having
gone
through
the
menu,
I
mentioned
to
the
other
two
with
me
that
the
menu
was
far
too
big
for
them
to
do
justice
to
Indian
food.
After
she
had
taken
our
order,
she
promptly
came
back,
no
Bindi
(lady
finger)
in
stock.
I
chose
another
dish.
Finally,
our
starters
Papri
Chat
and
vegetable
samosas
arrived.
The
samosa
were
ok,
I
have
had
much
better
from
corner
shops.
The
Papri
Chat
was
a
very
big
disappointment,
it
was
nothing
like
a
Papri
Chat,
the
cook
had
cobbled
some
crackers
as
base
and
covered
them
with
chopped
onions,
tomatoes,
very
tiny
pieces
of
boiled
potatoes
and
some
obscure
chutney.
I
complained
and
the
cook
came
to
talk
to
us.
I
told
him,
that
what
he
had
knocked
up
was
not
Papri
Chat
and
told
him
if
the
ingredients,
which
included
loads
of
fresh
yogurt
which
was
also
missing.
He
just
stood
there.
I
had
to
tell
home
to
go
and
prepare
our
main
meal.
We
had
ordered
2
tandoori
rotis,
there
were
a
disappointment
as
the
tandoor
had
not
bee
fired
up
and
the
rotis
looked
raw
neither
any
sign
of
the
usual
fluffyness
nor
the
odd
burn
mark
one
finds
on
tandoori
roti
cooked
on
full
head
of
the
tandoori
oven.
The
Peshawari
Nan
was
also
a
big
disappointment
and
seemed
have
been
a
left
over
from
previous
service,
the
stuffing
was
bone
dry
and
un
recognisable.
As
my
companions
were
locals
and
no
knowledge
of
Indian
cuisine,
I
did
not
want
to
spoil
their
enjoyment
by
making
a
fuss.
After
our
meal
I
wanted
to
treat
my
companions
to
Indian
deserts
and
Masala
tea.
They
had
Kulfi
and
Pistachio
ice
creams
on
the
menu.
We
ordered
Pistachio
and
the
waitress
came
back
with
no
Pistachio
ice
cream
in
stock.
By
now
I
had
had
enough
and
asked
for
the
bill.
Would
you
believe
it,
they
added
18%
tax
which
was
just
under
94,000
IDR.
I
saw
this
scam,
but
kept
quiet
for
the
sake
of
my
companions.
No
other
restaurant
that
we
ate
at
charges
tax
on
top
of
the
displayed
prices.
That
includes
The
Hard
Rock
Cafe
in
Kuta
Beach..
Avoid
this
restaurant
at
all
costs,
unless
you
want
to
eat
food
which
is
an
insult
to
Indian
food
and
be
ripped
off
with
an
18%
tax
charge.
Extremely
bad
value
for
money
and
a
disastrous
evening.
Today
we
are
going
to
dine
at
the
Punjabi
Grill,
we
bumped
into
it
and
it’s
owners
on
our
walk
back
to
our
hotel.
These
people
were
very
warm,
friendly
and
spoke
Punjabi.
The
grills
and
tandoor
are
visible
to
the
customers.
Looking
forward
to
tonight
at
the
Punjabi
and
some
decent
real
Indian
food.
