%%"AaaaCHOO!"
'It must be the chili!'
"No, it's my chronic rhinitis!"%%
I love overhearing conversations in restaurants.
Today I had lunch at the
Carlton Curry House on Lygon Street, a few doors away from
Namaste Indian Restaurant SR's Namaste .
I'd originally tried to eat somewhere else I won't name (Little Italy Pasta House), but the waiters just walked straight past me.
At
Carlton Curry House I was greeted by Peggy straight away (even though she was busy) and she couldn't have been more lovely. You can read about her
here .

I was seated by the window and quickly handed the menus (lunch, regular and wine). I was brought a papadum to start off with, along with a neat dip. The dip kind of tasted like tzatziki but that's probably not what it was.

I ordered Matar Paneer off the lunch menu, which is a vegetarian dish with cottage cheese and green peas with a creamy, nutty sauce. This is normally a mild curry but you can adjust the spices any way you like (I opted for 'medium'). It was delicious and just the right serving size.

The rice was thinner, lighter and more delicate than any I've ever cooked at home.

You can order your meal takeaway here or and/or have it delivered. You can even order
online .

Conclusions: taste, price and service were brilliant, but unfortunately I spotted a Carlton AFL flag inside this otherwise fine establishment.
