However, as I said we ventured out on Dec. 31 and enjoyed a lovely meal at Taj Mahal -Flavour of India, in Moncton. Mary and I enjoy East Indian food. I was reminiscing about my journey to India. The smells when landing in Bombay, smells I had never smelled before. Running after my language, taken by a taxi driver who wanted to ensure his fair. Sharing a taxi with two business man. The poverty, mind blowing, families sleeping on the street covered with cardboard. Me, as a white person being the minority. The colours of the market, and the uncertainty of the food quality. Nevertheless, I enjoy the flavour of East Indian food and the Taj Mahal in Moncton is on of the best.
As the starter we enjoyed Lentil soup, very delicious. I love soups. This one had a lovely cream texture and was perfectly balance with East Indian spices.
As the main course I picked Dal Makhni with Rice (Whole black lentils served with basmati rice) and Mary picked Subz Jalfrezi (Fresh vegetables, green cabbage, cauliflower, potatoes, carrots, capsicum and green peas. Seasoned and cooked on low heat).
| It was just the right amount of food, and the presentation was lovely. This restaurant is not just for East Indian food lovers but also for some one who wants to try something different and doesn't want to spend a lot of money. The cost of a meal at the Taj Mahal is very low and the quality of the food is excellent. Check it out some time when you are in Moncton NB, they also do have a website <http://www.tajmahalmoncton.com/>. | |
