Ginger Indian Restaurant is my new go to Indian Restaurant. Being Indian, you know you can trust my opinion on this restaurant, especially because when it comes to Indian food, I am usually WAY biased towards my mum's cooking :P
Anyways though, the food here does 4 things very right that majority of Indian restaurants do very wrong (in my experience).
1. It does not finish a vat of oil per dish - there is no glistening layer of fat on top of your dishes, yet at the same time, they are generally not dry so that the spices get stuck in your throat. A perfect balance actually.
2. They have the options of spicy vs mild, and their dishes actually mean it. More often than not, even mild will be ridiculously spicy in Indian restaurants, but at Ginger, mild (for me at least) was so definitely mild. Not flavourless, but certainly not flavourful from the hit of chilli! But at least they cater to all palates.
3. They don't mess up your order. And this is after not using notepads. That is just SO boss.
4. There is no overdose of gaudy Bollywood music or overdone Indian decor. It is subtle, comfortable and smells of delicious Indian cooking scent everyone. Your meal isn't interrupted by whistles from songs or jangling, which is such a change!
Overall, I would recommend Ginger to absolutely everyone! Their food is delicious, the atmosphere is homely and I have no complaints after eating there! read more
