I heard they have been having some difficulty with this aspect. And in fact delayed their opening as a result. I agrgee with you. Poor service is a major let down.<br /><br />You'll love Kastoori. It offers such different dishes and has a great atmosphere.Brownershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494760235889452922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4906220867589613765.post-82880019209773046692009-07-28T11:24:12.247+01:002009-07-28T11:24:12.247+01:00Hello again,

My friends made their lamb dishes disappear pretty quickly too.<br /><br />Service was friendly but pretty ditzy. My starter went to the wrong table and a new one only showed up as my friends were finishing theirs. We had to ask for extra cutlery a couple of times and the promised dessert menu never arrived, but we were full by then anyway so didn't really mind. <br /><br />OK, so these are tiny details, but they seemed out of step with the glam makeover the place has had. <br /><br />Will probably go back, but not befor trying the Kastoori, that place sounds awesome!<br /><br />Natasha (formerly anonymous)Natashanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4906220867589613765.post-30706531530959458312009-07-02T02:42:15.308+01:002009-07-02T02:42:15.308+01:00Menu board is up now as promised :)

They also don't have a website yet... although they do have a facebook fan page...<br /><br />In terms of vegetarian dishes, they do have a good range... our butternut squash and aubergine dishes were every bit as good as the chicken and lamb curries... albeit the squash was a bit on the undercooked side of things.<br /><br />Give it a go and ask their opinion on vegetarian dishes. We found the service was really good and they gave us good guidance.<br /><br />I'm intrigued to hear what you think.Brownershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494760235889452922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4906220867589613765.post-19779546457292823372009-06-25T11:45:52.652+01:002009-06-25T11:45:52.652+01:00I walk past this place every day but have not yet ...I walk past this place every day but have not yet been inside partly because, unless I'm being utterly dense (which is rather likely), there is no menu posted on the door and, as a vegetarian, I want to know if they do a decent selection of veggie dishes - what do you reckon on this front?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4906220867589613765.post-5910818154589513612009-06-22T14:05:08.177+01:002009-06-22T14:05:08.177+01:00@Gourmet Chick - It's tiring being a supporter...@Gourmet Chick - It's tiring being a supporter.
