Newport Beach Restaurant Week

The other night we decided to try something new, we picked Tamarind of London, a fairly new upscale Indian restaurant in Crystal Cove. Being big fans of Indian food were super excited!

Food was pretty good.. until the cheese naan came along..CHEESE NAAN folks!!!! what restaurant serves that???? Of course it was super disgusting just like a crappy pizza hut pizza.. What an anticlimax. It didn't get better - we had to wait nearly an hour for the bill, normally you get it thrown on the table the minute after you put your fork down. Nope, not at this place.

The restaurant week itself is a fun thing, the participating restaurants offer lunch and dinner menues to a set, cheap price, such as 3 course lunch for $15 or dinner for $30. A great opportunity to try new venues.

Pappadoms Caliornia Style?

                                                        Spicy Crabmeat, must be American style

                                                         See that big cheesy cheese naan?

                                  The curries! Prawn masala, chicken masala, spicy spuds and lentils.

 

Mango ice cream, Indian style, yum!
