The first thing you should know about food from Amaya is that it all looks the same -- see photo. Every dish we ordered, without exception, was the same colour and consistency - orange goo. Based on the menu descriptions, we were hoping for three distinct vegetarian dishes, however it appears that there was a special on orange goo sauce, as it was added to every dish. In the entree advertised as "braised baby root vegetables," there was nary a root vegetable in sight, other than some sad-looking carrot slices; peppers and broccoli are not "root vegetables" in my dictionary.
The eggplant dish that we ordered actually did have eggplant -- a few pieces floating in the aforementioned orange goo. Remarkably, it did taste -- a bit -- of the promised tamarind. Still very gooey.
We ordered brown basmati rice and instead received some other sort of rice which was short-grained and clumpy -- definitely not basmati. The naan was quite thick and doughy. No orange goo to report here, at least. The raita and pickles were sub-par.
Did I also mention the small pieces of shredded aluminum foil that I almost accidentally ate? Somehow they made it into one of the main dishes, camouflaged by -- you guessed it -- orange goo.
Of course, it wouldn't be fair to be entirely negative about Amaya Express. To their credit, the delivery actually arrived early, and on New Year's Eve, no less! Still,the food strongly resembles vomit; we won't be ordering from here again.
