Kulshi

I've been going to the Kulshi since moving to urmston 2years ago and I've never been disappointed.it's good value for money and great for the kids too as they just run for the starters and ice creams!leaves me in peace to eat with my wife!!! I love the decor and the staff are always as helpful as possible.the drinks are reasonably priced and I love the food there.all in all I don't think I could get better service and quality of food from anywhere else for £10. If anyone gets a chance to try the Indian sweets they make absolutely go for it..especially if u like coconut and nutty flavours. Perfect sweets to finish off a curry.

I hate to use the phrase OK'ish. But adequate or satisfactory would be too generous. Yet avoid or horrible would be too harsh. So I can only really offer OK'ish. Here's why...

I'm never comfortable with buffets in Indian Restaurants and Kulshi just reminded me why. Some parts of the meal were well, that word again, OK. Others were definitely NOT ok. Prawn crackers instead of poppadums? Nan bread that was more like potato cakes than ...well...potato cakes. All of the meals in the buffet had a very similar flavour and strength. Here's why. There is what I regard as one of the biggest clues you can ever find when judging an Indian meal, in fact in a meal of any ethnicity, the food colouring. When a chef uses more colouring than spices then he is not a good chef or he is trying to disguise food. The massala and korma were the same sauce but with different colours. Meats had been heavily coloured. Just like Jordan, when somethings gets THAT orange avoid it, poor taste, poor quality. All of the sauces were of the same strength. Nothing spicy for the more daring customer. That's a clue that everything has come from the same sauce.

The restaurant itself was clean and reasonably well furnished. It's an old shop that's been converted but the high ceiling has been retained which gives the atmosphere of eating in a warehouse or an aircraft hanger. Have you ever been in a warm wharehouse or a cosy aircraft hanger?

This is only my opinion. Pop down to Kulshi, eat and form your own opnion.

My bill £12- Buffet £10 2litre bottle of water £2. What I feel the meal was worth? Maximum £8 incl drink.
