It's almost endearing that the Good Food Indian Halal Take Away forgo the self indulgent restuarant names you might find littered down Prince of Wales Road on a Friday night on the tiles. It doesn't claim to be the best, or super, mega, fantastic or anything other overtly hyperbolic you might care to think of. It appears a genuine evaluation, an honest description. You have to admire it. The first thing to note is that the delivery was quick. Really, extremely quick. Not that you can read too much in to that on a one time basis. The roads could have been clear, every traffic light could have been green, the establishment could have been merely yards from our house. Still, it boded well for the rest of the experience.

I'm unsure if this is common knowledge, and that by making this revelation I am simply exposing myself as a mere novice of take away reviewing, but my chicken biryani came with rice and and a seperate foil dish of sauce to go over it. This, in addition to the basmati rice I had also ordered provided a veritable mountain of food. We had also ordered a Kima naan and Bombay potato to share, which in total had come to £16.55 between the two of us which is about average. Of course, given the quantity anomaly which had occured this evening, it did appear exceptional value and rather a daunting challenge. There were no gratuities to speak of, other than the standard bag of onion mush which never looks particuarly apetising and is inevitably discarded without a second thought.

It looked good too, primarily because it wasn't comparable to a castle surrounded by a moat of oil as is so often the case. Not only that, but there were vegetables in it. And not just the expected token, sad, solitary oninions, but sweetcorn, courgettes, mushrooms. It looked vaguely, well, nutritional. It tasted excellent too, a fresh spicy taste, but not so much as to lessen the flavour. It was hearty, warm and filling, but not in the chemically enhanced way that sits uneasily in your stomach, making you wish you'd known better.

Verdict: There aren't a great deal of Indian takeaways in Norwich, and the ones that do exist rarely do enough to justify your continual loyalty to them. In the Good Food Indian Halal Takeaway, I might well have found one whose menu is worth holding on to.
