Taste of India ( Forest Hall ) — Restaurant in North Tyneside

Perhaps it was just one of those nights, but it was the first time I had been in years… perhaps a decade, and the rest of the group had never been before.

It took forever for the food to arrive and at one point someone apologised explaining they had had loads of takeaway orders. We weren’t the only table waiting.
