After a long week at work and cooking most nights it was time for a take-away treat on Friday night. We rang through our order and headed up to Taj Palace in Nicholson St Footscray. We've ordered from here before but we're usually too hungry to wait for me to mess around taking photos of our food!
We had a five minute wait at Taj Palace so we got to watch The Main Man working his magic behind the glass at the tandoor oven. He slapped pieces of bread onto the walls off the oven and placed meat on metal skewers into the tandoor. The Bloke thought he looked like the cricketer, Merv Hughes. I was really happy to wait for our food to watch The Main Man at work.
Saffron rice $3.00 Rogan Josh $9.50
Vegetable Samosas $4.00
Chicken Tikka $7.00
Roti $4.00
Kulfi $4.00
What a great feast! The rogan josh was delicious with tender lamb. The samosas had a lovely not-to-thick pastry with a curried potato and pea filling. The chicken tikka, of which there were five pieces, were tender and had a great smokey flavour. We also got a small tub of tamarind sauce to have with the samosas and chicken which had a slight sweetness and was very nice. I had the kulfi which was okay but my least favourite of the meal. I've never had kulfi before, so I'll have to try it somewhere else, for comparison.
I love Taj Palace. It's not too far from home and the food is very tasty and extremely good value.
