Mid East MoJo
Havn't been out to eat in a while and what a comeback... our meal was superb! We were a large table so got to taste a wide selection of things as we dipped into each others orders.
Food: The lamb with humus and a kheema and hazlenut 'samosa' (for lack of a better term) for starters - avoid the aubergine dip. Main course was the Arni m'qualli (not sure if i got it right - ask your waiter :) which is a leg of lamb cooked in Tagine dish making it succulent and literally shred off the bone - yum! Other delightful dishes included the lamb shank and prawn tagine served with couscous. The kebabs off the grill are also delicious
Ambience: what ambience? - a big let down. I can't imagine why a place like the Taj can't be sensible enough to install reflective glass to take advantage of the view...as it was, we ended up looking at ourselves in the reflection despite a great view of the harbour.
Service: Was excellent with some good suggestions made by the person taking our order. Unfortunately, they were wearing outfits that looked like they were bought at RoopMilan rather than what would be available in a middle eastern souk
Damage: Bloody expensive - was being entertained so did not see the bill, but would imagine it was in the range of Rs 2000 per head
