Curry Queen

Actually, i’m not the type of person that usually bothers to leave reviews but for this instance i’ll make an exception. Why? Well I think i’ve might have just discovered one of the best curry takeaways in Norwich. First I knew of this takeaway is when I received a leaflet/​menu through the letterbox which had some spiel about how some bloke travels 20 miles just to get a curry from this place. Naturally, I passed this as marketing guff but curiosity got the better of me so I thought i’d give them a try tonight. I ordered a vegetable chilli massala and when I collected was pleased to see the place looked clean and hygenic and the service very genial. Better still was the quality of the curry. Now I like to think of myself as something of a curry connoisseur and most curries I have I’d regard them to be so-​so or mediocre but I can tell you that that the one I had tonight was truly exceptional. This was one of those rare curries which not only had a well thought out combination of ingredients but the most amazingly rich of taste that most other curry houses just can’t seem to produce. Seriously, the chef here really knows how to do the perfect curry. This one will definitely be my regular from now on.

I just had to give this a try after reading sickboyedd’s review. There are not many curry houses that can do a flavoursome vindaloo, and this is one of them and at a good price too. Its a bit out of the way for me for a takeaway but well worth it.

Curry Queen is a great, cheap curry takeaway option, operating out of a shop on the Colman Road. I’ve consistently been impressed by their curries; they taste nice and fresh, good flavours with well balanced spice. I’m a big fan of really spicy options like vindaloo, and they do it with gusto. The trick with the hot curries is to provide the heat but not let the dish just be all about the heat, there needs to be subtlety in the spice still, which Curry Queen thankfully understand. Their less spicy options are equally delicious too, their vegetarian options are fantastic value and you can have a feast for £10−15 for two people. One of the better places in Norwich for curry, ideally placed near a good convenience store if you also want to pick up a few tinnies.
