I do confess I never been to a restaurant in Walsall itself but i already heard good things about the Balti houses in the area. Pleck Balti was my first one and I didn't feel disappointed.
As an unconditional fan of Indian food, the choice of dinner with friends last Friday couldn't be better! Pleck Balti is just about 15 minutes from where I live and it was particularly packed when we arrived.
It wasn't difficult to find a table for five people either. Even we didn't book any table in advance.
As a typical Balti place, it as possible to bring your own drink. The menu was quite impressive and it was a bit difficult to choose one single option. Loads of great options of curries and Naan breads and chef specialties.
My starter was a delicious Tandoori King Prawn in a decent portion that opened the appetite for a gorgeous Bhuna as main. I never had tried that curry before and I thought a very mild one; something that made me believe I can handle more spicy than that! Cool!
The staff and service were pretty efficient. We had a great night out in Pleck Balti and even being the last guests in the house, the whole service was spot on until the end. Not to mention that it is a pretty reasonable place. A tenner paid for the starter, main course and a can of coke.
I just would enjoy a bit more of heating inside that place. It was a bit cold inside the place and with the winter coming I hope to have it in full blast next time I visit the restaurant. read more
