Monthly Dinner Club

This is a blogspot which will serve as a Restaurant Review for our Monthly Dinner Club. We are based in Cape Town and have visited restaurants since January 2001. Each month, one of the Organisers selects a new restaurant with the only rule being that it is not allowed to be a venue that the Monthly Dinner Club or one of the Organisers have frequented before.

*** Welcome Celeste and Neil to Our Monthly Dinner Club. They are the 1st patrons that found us via our blog, which is awesome and we're very excited about this! I've added a link to their website http://www.mammafrica.co.za/ as well. ***

- Prawn curry was great, very tasty & mild. Great decor, love the lanterns.

- Service was slow and portions had small quantity of meat. More sauce than anything else. Good medium curry but not enough per portion.

- Chicken Tikka Masala was good! Service slow, not geared for big groups. Nice atmosphere though.

- Chicken tikka good, Rogan Josh good, cheese thing good, vegetarian hot.

- Wonderful flavours, hubby not a big eater but says "not enough meat" in the Rogan Josh. Palak paner was good, had taste of chicken masala (excellent) but biryani left me with "numb" lips. Great Company + Great atmosphere.

- Very good food and company. Not too spicy, so no burnt lips. Thx Fi 4 organising.

- Very, very slow. Gosht badami very nice, but not enough meat.

- Great veg selection but v slow service.

- Great atmosphere. Service very slow. Mung Kadar disappointing! Chicken boneless but not cartilage-less!

- I had a blast n'all!

- N'all & n'all

- Service could improve, enjoyed my meal and my wife's. HeHeHe!!!

- Prawns really tasty! Fabulous massage!!! Best dessert I've ever had:-)
