Spiceways Contemporary Indian Restaurant

Food was great - Karai was a little hotter than I expected, but chillis vary and I enjoy a bit anyway. Plenty of chicken - I opted for the chicken tikka over standalone and for this curry it works spectacularly. I was a little surprised by the chicken chaat coming with a very pasanda-like sauce, but despite not being a huge lover of nuts I enjoyed it - and I may well have missed this in the menu description, as it's something I often order from my local place. Slightest complaint here is that the outside could have been crispier, but that's my preference. Keema naan was perfect, might be a little smaller than some are used to - it's not bigger than your face like at some places! - however, this is because they're not stretched so far, so they still have some denser, doughy edges to enjoy!

Staff were lovely, checked in often enough to reassure that any issues - though we had none in our party of four - would be swiftly taken care of, whilst not hovering and making it feel rushed. Papadums would have been kept well topped up if I'd given in to simply using them as a way to convey as much chutney to my face as possible - but alas I refrained. Would have been worth it though.

I'd recommend that fans of Indian food give this place a visit if they're in the area. If traffic backs up at the Fiveways then local drivers might have time for a quick curry supper (and probably a pint across the road at the pub). Easy enough to avoid if you want to visit, though!

Thanks Spiceways for a fab meal!
