Tomato & Chicken Korma Curry
Weight loss cleansing is not usually the first thing that comes to mind when people think of losing weight. chicken korma paste the same time, we all know how hard traditional dieting can be as fatigue, mood swings or food cravings can take over. In fact, dieting is so difficult that most people will fail in the first week if not the first two days. We booked a paddled chicken korma curry van from the bus station to look for reservations in different hotels. Fortunately or you can say, unfortunately we got accommodation at a hotel just 5 minutes walking distance away from the bus station and a 10 minutes walking distance away from the beach. The room was big enough with two double beds letting four of us having our own share of space. We paid Rs.500 for the room and it was a decent bargain. The menu is full of Thai food, of course, I think from the Chiang Mai area in the north. That means a lot of vegetables in soups and curries, and lighter sauce. It is also very vegetarian-friendly, with most dishes available vegan style or with tofu instead of meat. Portion size is very good for the price. The $11 crab meat fried rice is very good. If you are familiar with sweetened American-style Thai food, however, the 'plainer' taste of this dish may take some getting used to (but then real pizza in Italy isn't all loaded up with cheese and toppings like we get here in America either, ay?). They actually put real crab meat in this thing, and have the good sense to not try to cover that authentic taste with artificial toppings! Now, that's cooking! The parking lot was empty and the sign at the front said closed. However, the door was open and it stated the hours as 5.p.m. to 11 p.m. It was now 5.20 p.m. Len shouted out are you open and the lady came up to us and said that they were and did we need seating for 2? I looked around the restaurant and the owner/cook was still vacuuming the dining area so I knew that we were the only people in the restaurant. We were given menus and the meals ranged from $10.95 to $59.95 for a special for 2. The crockpot curry chicken curry was $14.95 and the Tandoori chicken $15.95 in the menu but the coupon book had these dishes for $9.95. A young girl, who we presumed to be one of the daughters of the couple brought us water. I asked for lemon and she told me that they didn't have any. For sandwiches and wraps they had the chicken bacon and ranch wrap, buffalo chicken wrap, portabella mushroom wrap and many others. Sandwiches you had the options like Graffiti's Ultimate beer brat, cordon bleu, spicy pesto slow cooker chicken korma, and plenty of options of burgers. I can never get away from ordering the Cuban burger. It is an 8 oz burger topped with Swiss cheese and ham topped with garlic mayo and Dijon mustard. It hits the spot every time. My companion had a fresh lemonade and I had a Basil Ginger Gimlet to start. For dinner, she had Chicken Madras, medium spicy. It was, to quote the menu, "piquant south chicken korma tempered with mustard seeds, curry leaves, red chilies and coconut." I ordered Jardalu Ma Gos. From the menu again: "a delicate Parsi dish of lamb sauteed with apricots, stick cinnamon, fresh ginger, garlic, onion and red chili served with julienne fried potatoes." I asked for it as spicy as a natvie would eat it. "Are you sure?" the waitress asked. "He's sure," my companion assured her. Both meals were delectable and suited our tastes.
