OK, so I've moved here from London where we have considerably higher standards of Indian/Bangladeshi cookery than they do here in New York. But even by NYC standrds this was truly disgusting. The prices may be cheap - but not that cheap - but represent extraordinarily bad value for money when $5.75 gets you just two pieces of paneer swimming in a sauce that contained a few meagre shards of spinach. When I returned it, they added 3 more fingernail size pieces. The naan isn't naan, it's greasy paratha, & microwaved. Pappadums are chewy and old. The dahl is basically water and tasteless. Most sauce based vegetarian offerings are a bucket of flavourless watery orange liquid. The chana had about ten chickpeas to a pint of liquid. Mushroom curry, about the same ratio with TINNED mushrooms. I think they use the same sauce in everything - it tastes of nothing. Even worse than Panna II round the corner, which is saying something.Surly waitstaff, and grubby surroundings. ( I spotted a greasy wrench on the floor at the back, and the carpet doesn't just need a clean, it needs sterilising.) Eating here is a truly pointless experience: my take out meal cost $17 and I ended up ordering in pizza from Lil'Frankies.... After eating on and around Brick Lane in East London & in Southall, in brilliant, much cheaper Bangladeshi restaurants for 12 years, and extensive travel throughout India I can honestly say that this was hands down the worst example of cooking claiming to be representative of the sub continent that I have ever inflicted upon myself. An insult to their culinary heritage.
