Felt like butter chicken but didn't want to drive too far so decided to check out Tamarind. We ordered our usual EI course consisting of popodum, onion bahji, butter chicken, chicken korma, curry veg & rice.
Even though we had it to go a few things about the restaurant. Its in a new strip mall and offers decent parking. The interior is quite nice and tastefully decorated which would be appropriate for anything from a dinner with the kids to date night. The person who took my order and served me when picking up was very friendly and seemed to care about providing good service.
Now back to the food! The popodums themselves were good but nothing special (how can you make a deep fried cracker special??) but the chutneys served with it were fantastic. In particular the papaya was very refreshing. The bahji were nicely spiced and were fresh, good bite sized lumps of oniony goodness. The butter chicken and chicken korma were both well prepared with enough spice to give a kick but not over powering. The curry veg had a good selection of different vegetables and also freshly prepared. A nice surprise is they offered coconut rice. While not as strong as thai coconut rice it was still very good.
