...... when I needed them??
Just strolled across to Shezan the local Curry House..... been there before.......
.....all the "usuals" on the Menu - albeit they come out a little bit "different"......
.....that aside they normally dish up a healthy measure .
Wander in and sit down.... to be presented with the Standard basket of Popadoms with assorted Pickles (These are free.... you just get them for sitting at the table)...
Quick scan down the Menu and Today I thought I'd give the Tandoori Mixed Grill a chance.....
So ordered Meat Samosa
Onion and Tomato Salad
& a Sweet Lussi....
Would you like any rice or Naan - said the Waiter....
Mmmmmm - No sauce.... don't think I need Naan....
Samosas come - pretty standard fare... only 4 of them........
Then a Dinner plate with a pyramid of chopped Toms and Onions and some Minty/Yoghurty sauce....
Then the Mixed Grill......... I kid you not - I thought I had ordered the Family Feast by mistake!!!
8 Large King Prawns (we would call them Crevettes or Crayfish)
4 Lamb Chops
4 Sheek Kebabs
2 Drumsticks
2 Breast/Wing Combos
plus about 20 odd Chicken Cubes (Shashlick type of thing)
all on a bed of sliced Onion and piled on a Cast Iron Skillet about an inch thick......
I gave it my best shot (and I am fairly renowned for not being a lightweight in the Troughing department).....
but I could only force down about 1/2...... and looked at the remains - that would feed my Family for a week!
Asked for the bill and the poor Waiter was beside himself.....
You not like?? Sorry Sorry..... Me get Manager....
Manager came over and was really apologetic.... Was it too spicy.... Was it not cooked well....
Took me 10 minutes to explain that it was great (just too 'kin much.......)
Managed to get the Bill (they were still reticent about giving me it).......
5 SAR (less than a quid) for the Samosas
10 SAR for the Salad
and 40 SAR (Less than 8 squid) for the Mixed Grill.......
Plus 20 SAR for the couple of Lussi....
