CURRY LEAF INDIAN RESTAURANT comaro crossing — Restaurant in Gauteng

Being self-employed personally, we understand the difficulties which accompany establishing a profitable business, thus always prefer giving the smaller businesses a second chance at the expense of the established franchised chains. Having oftentimes experienced Indian cuisine, we expected spicy, well-cooked but succulent meat. We ordered a chicken breyani and a portion of samoosas. Unfortunately, we were disappointed ;the samoosas were minuscule and the innards dry ;the chicken breyani an unappetising congealed mess with three chunks of chewy dried chicken pieces.
