Great place hidden away downstairs. Lovely food and popular. Starter came quickly but we'd been there 40 mins before my main arrived (just after we asked if it was coming soon). It was a tofu panang and I skipped the tofu as it was too chewy which left me with broccoli, carrots and a few green beans. Still, it was tasty. Wouldn't order it again. Curry puffs were so delicious - melt in the mouth!
