a year agoToday was our first visit to the Macclesfield store. The staff were lovely and offered us a taste of Naked Chicken Katsu Curry which was delicious. We purchased several dishes and had Onion Bagees and Chicken Tikka Masala for dinner this evening. Absolutely the best ready meal/ take out we have ever had. Tastes homemade and the list of ingredients are what you would use if making from scratch with no flavour enhancers, preservatives or dodgy additives. Very impressed.

4 years agoI can’t rate this place high enough. We were new parents so we’re looking for easy meals. The meals we’ve had so far have been faultless. No exaggeration to say the food was restaurant quality. The flavours were outstanding. Just try them out you will not be disappointed.
