Palm Beach Restaurant

I met up a friend here for dinner recently. I have eaten here before many years ago and they were big for their dosas and briyani. This time my experience was quite mediocre. The place was easy to fine and had good seating. There was no cumin/chilli smell upon entering and leaving the premises. We ordered a mutton briyani and a fish briyani and shared a starter. The starter came with 2 pieces of vadai and some coconut condiment. This starter was good and spicy. We ordered masala teas and a lassi drink. Dessert was an ice cream. The mains arrive pretty fast after we ordered but initially no one came to take our order and we had to flag them to come around to take our dessert order. Waiters were friendly but somehow not so attentive. The briyanis were nice but my friend found a piece of hair at the end of her meal which spoiled her experience. The management was kind enough to waive off the charge for one of the mains however, the fun was already gone upon this unfortunate discovery. Masala teas were good and worth every penny. It could have been cheaper considering it was a very common drink in Wembley and you could get that for 80p in the cafes along the high street. It was gbp3 for a tea here. The dessert was nice but frozen . It didnt look like it was freshly made. Fresh isn't the selling point for this place. It is a hit and miss so you could still try it out. If it wasn't for the hair/ hygiene issue they would have been good as the food was quite authentic.
