Curry Zone has a good range of curries however the cost is a tad high, even for food court prices. The line was short, which was good during the busy lunch period on a weekday. The staff were friendly albeit slightly hard to hear amongst the hustle and bustle of the food court.
I ordered the chicken korma curry with rice. At $10, you get a nice sized proportion on a small plastic plate. Compared to other places in the food court, such as the small Chinese restaurant, the amount of food you get is the equivalent of $7.90 at other places. This wasn't too bad, I was mainly more concerned with a small hair on the side of the plate, thank god it was not in the food.
The lady at the takeaway storefront also asked me if I wanted to try some "nann bread". I decided to take just a plain nann as opposed to the garlic or cheesy nann bread. For $3, the size of nann bread was somewhat generous.
When I got back to my seat, I tried the chicken korma. It wasn't bad at all. They had a nice balance of spice, the sauce was flavorsome and was in good volume (not too much as to drown out the entire plate though) and the rice was well cooked. I would like to extend an honorable mention to the chicken pieces in the curry as they were incredibly juicy and very well cooked. In short, it was a good curry and I was pleasantly surprised, although $10 still seemed a little high for what I got.
The nann bread looked very good in the shop front window. When I took it back to my seat though, I noticed that the piece I had was slightly overcooked on the bottom leaving an almost nasty taste on the pallete. For the bits that weren't burnt, the bread was fluffy, evidently fresh and tasted like traditional Indian nann. The nann was a tad on the oily side in some places however I am glad that I at least tried it.
To summarise, Curry Zone has a great range of meat and vegetable curries. The proportions are about the right size for lunch however may be on the upper end of food court pricing (but the food quality is great). Just be careful to look for small hairs on the side of the plate and to ensure you don't get a burnt piece of nann. read more
