| - Bombay's Chutney is a neat little Indian Restaurant located in the heart of Richmond Hill. I have eaten here on many occasions my guests and I have always enjoyed our meal and the experience.
Religiously, I will start my dinner with an order of beef samosas. They arrive at your table piping hot served along side some stellar tamarind chutney. The beef filling is bountiful and seasoned well; these will forever be a staple of mine. From the tandoor I would typically select the chicken tikka, seekh kebabs or paneer tikka. For mains the butter chicken here will make the cut every time. The blend of masala and spices is near perfect and the boneless chicken pieces are tender and definitely pre-marinated. I've eaten butter chicken everywhere, and BC's BC holds its own.
It is important to note that if I were vegetarian I would be most pleased with this restaurant. I find most veggie heads love paneer, as do I. Bombay's Chutney boasts 5 vegetarian curries which showcase paneer: Chili paneer, paneer makhni (butter sauce), saag paneer (spinach), karahi paneer and mattar paneer (peas). In addition to the plethora of paneer dishes they have several other vegetarian ones including my absolute favourite, Malai Kofta.
To accompany the dishes you can order biryani or naan. Unfortunately I have never tried the biryani because their garlic naan has always been way too spot on to deviate away from. The naan is brought to your table straight from the tandoor and is always perfectly cooked. If you order the garlic rendition it will be brushed with butter then absolutely riddled with garlic bits before going into the tandoor. The garlic bits caramelize and crisp up and my goodness it's perfect.
Overall a solid experience each and every time I visit this venue. The only quam I have with BC is that they now have a huge sign at the front of the establishment advertising a $4.99 lunch, I feel that this takes away from the class of the restaurant a bit, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
Service is always awesome and they have a bar complete with various wines, liquors and beers including Kingfisher! Nice.
