| - The first time I was confronted with Royal India's buffet, my stomach expanded six times. Buffets are not my friend, and this had a selection of all of my favourites - delicious butter chicken, fresh cooked Naan, paneer, samosas, paneer, vindaloo. My plate was full like a little mountain, and I felt like I was going to explode for the rest of the day. Which was a bad thing, because at the time I worked in the building above the Royal India. Try concentrating when you are about to burst.
My proximity to the restaurant meant that I went back for lunch a few more times - while exercising careful restraint of course. And the second time around I noticed that while it is pretty decent Indian food, it isn't quite stellar. Quality is sacrificed for quantity, at least buffet wise.
Also, can I just say that the service here is pretty stellar. A full star full of service actually - I was debating three but they have never been anything but courteous, helpful and kind. They legitimately ask about your day, and are always quick to fill water glasses and to take away dirty dishes but also to let you linger if you want.
