Jalsha Revisited

A delivery that saw us coming back up the A2 towards Canterbury meant that it was a simple job to park almost outside the Jalsha on the way home without any detour whatsoever!  Last time we reviewed the Jalsha the curry was fantastic but it was let down by poor service.  Would this evening be any better??

For those who may not have read our previous review, the Jalsha looks to be a converted pub in the Wincheap area of Canterbury.  It is nicely decorated, modern looking without being too garish.  Just one little bug bear for Phil was that the colour changing LED uplights were out of sync but hey ho he gets upset by light switches not being level on the wall....

The Papadums were warm and fresh served with an excellent combination of pickles.  The beers were served promptly and we were pleased to see two waitresses serving this evening.

The curries were every bit as good as we remembered from before, with generous portions.  The rice and vegetables the perfect accompaniment all nice and hot with an excellent combination of flavours.

The only downside was again the service.  Admittedly better than before but still lacking one or two little subtleties such as towels after the curry and even the farewell as we were leaving.

In total 76 but it could easily have been higher if they paid a little more attention to service.
