Read moreThe food was old and heated before serving to us. The steward lacked knowledge about the menu and bullied us. The food was extremely tasteless and has no influence of Indian cuisine. It's a shame on the name of Indian food. No flavours, no taste and absolutely no texture. They use same curry for all of their preparations be it dry or gravy.
