Punjab Curry House is spacious, clean and well lit, with an outdoor area for those who wish to take in the lovely atmosphere of hooligans doing burnouts along Church Street. There is also a large plasma screen over the counter that is always on. This can rather annoy me, especially when sport is the subject matter. Nevertheless at Punjab’s it adds to the atmosphere rather than detracts from it as they show nothing but Indian pop music videos which are endlessly amusing.

I was assured that I was in good hands as my dining companion was a regular. He had only just sat down when the manager swanned over with the mango lassi that he knew was about to be ordered. Another good sign was several Indian people among the clientele.
We ordered a veritable feast which we could not even finish, and all this came at only about $23 a head. I don’t think I can even recall everything that we ordered, though it certainly included pampadams, roti, dahl, mint sauce, cucumber yoghurt sauce, bananas in coconut, pureed spinach and goats cheese, vegetarian curry and half a tandoori chicken.
The service is very friendly and polite, though we had to ask for some much needed water several times. (Some kind of cruel joke?) The food wasn't too hot but this can really come down to a matter of opinion. Having said this my boyfriend looked a little red in the face after sampling the dahl he ordered, though he’s pretty soft so I’m not sure that counts. I don’t have a particularly good tolerance to chilli and I found the level of heat quite satisfactory.
We left feeling extremely full and satisfied, without any of the nasty side effects that Indian cuisine can often provoke.
