Warmly greeted at the door and brought to a comfortable table immediately, I knew it was going to be a good time. Clearly the host working the door understands how to be pleasant and welcoming, when we told him we were hungry, he brought us a platter of popadoms to get started. Thin, crunchy and brittle, they were exactly what we needed to get warmed up for dinner. Drinks? Check. Appetizers? Check. Mains? Check. All perfect. They have a massive menu with all the usual favorite Indian curries ranging from just mild all the way up to nuclear hot. We started off with Kingfisher and Cobra beers, then a selection of appetizers. The Chicken Tikka was perfectly cut into little bit size pieces and the shish kabob easily divided amongst us. Harder to divide where the massive Onion Bhaji that were at least three inches in diameter. All yummy. Mains. My Lamb Passanda with Pilau Rice was spicy without being too hot and went down a perfect treat. I know that my tablemates also enjoyed their dinners including a Chicken Jalfreezi and something else I'm sad to say that I can't recall. All in all, a great meal and I am extremely pleased. Thanks again, Yelp!

Hidden in the middle of this plethora of Indian and Bangladeshi foods is Nazma. With its neon lighting and curtained window, it looks quite classy. And that's confirmed when you enter - white tablecloths and an attentive maître d' who will get you seated and even pull out the table for easier entry. The menu is quite wide with a variety of curry dishes with the super hot Vindaloo and the classic Madras, Kurma and Dupiaza. Starters include Aloo Chat (spiced potato), Chicken Chat (spicy chicken) and Onion Bhaji (spiced onion pieces, shaped with flour, rolled and then fried). Since I'm on a low-carb eating regime, I started with the Chicken Tikka (spiced and oven baked) which came with a salad on the side. Very delicious, just the right temperature and spiciness. My friend had the Chicken Pakora (spiced, battered and fried). He said it was not too greasy and very flavorful. For mains, I decided to order from the House Specials list. Murgh Massala is minced lamb and tandoori chicken. I also had a dish of Aloo Gobi (potato and cauliflower), picking just the bits of cauliflower. When the Massala was set down, I was concerned because it smelled very spicy, but after I started to dig in, the subtle flavors of the chicken and lamb melted on my tongue. Delicious. It was so good that I have no idea what my friend had for his mains. We were well stuffed, so skipped out on the desserts (chocolates and ice creams, etc). The pint glass of Kingfisher was nicely poured and served in a proper logo'ed glass. I assume they also have Cobra and Mongoose. Tip: Indian food is easy to splash and drip. It's also quite oily, so when you end up wearing some of it, it's going to stay a while. Either tuck your napkin in like a bib or wear something that hides spills! Nazma was very good food and I would absolutely return!

Curry Queen is a great, cheap curry takeaway option, operating out of a shop on the Colman Road…read more I've consistently been impressed by their curries; they taste nice and fresh, good flavours with well balanced spice. I'm a big fan of really spicy options like vindaloo, and they do it with gusto. The trick with the hot curries is to provide the heat but not let the dish just be all about the heat, there needs to be subtlety in the spice still, which Curry Queen thankfully understand. Their less spicy options are equally delicious too, their vegetarian options are fantastic value and you can have a feast for £10-15 for two people. One of the better places in Norwich for curry, ideally placed near a good convenience store if you also want to pick up a few tinnies.

The decor is modern and they are obviously trying to pitch at a level of sophistication. The staff are friendly and well mannered, perhaps just a smidge aloof. The menu looked really good and I went for a chicken somethingorotherreasonablyspicy, garlic rice and tarka dall. The food arrived promptly and I couldn't help but notice the disparity in size of the various pieces of chicken. Some were a centimetre cubed, some were several inches. I called the waiter over and explained that there was no way that this lot could have been cooked uniformly and was therefore not willing to pay for the main. I had an important meeting the next day and didn't really want to spend it sitting on the khasie. There was a discussion. (Read: They came out with every excuse under the sun) Persistance, however, won the day and I had the dish removed from my bill. I get the idea that they are still finding their feet and, when they do, this could well be OK. (I still got my free chocolate at the end hence three stars)

We had poppadoms, starters, drinks, mains and a naan and paretha for just over £50 for three people, which is pretty bargainous if you ask me. I did stick to water all night, because I am sensible, rather than Old Speckled Hen like my compatriots, but still. I had the spinach bhaji to start, followed by spinach and lamb curry with pilau rice - all very tasty indeed (I love spinach, I'm like Popeye, me). The only teensy complaint would be that the lamb was a wee bit chewy rather than tender, but the flavours were spot on, the service was fantastic (prompt, helpful, friendly and warm), there was a bollywood film on a plasma screen telly opposite me, and the lads enjoyed their food so as I can't give 4.5 stars I'll round it up.
