    I ordered the lamb curry which was very fatty. When I was asked how my meal was I mentioned that it was fatty and the response was "well it is lamb". Not what I would have expected! The chicken curry which my husband had was fine. Prices were high for this kind of food though. Having said that we had breakfast in the same restaurant and that was very good
