Taj Mahal Tandoori

Food is good but expensive and make sure you have enough time. If you are very hungry forget it. Serving takes a very looooong time. Also there is no dedicated parking area. And waiting area is too bad!

Oh how did I end up in these neck of woods I hear you ask. Well I do get around. By Lord this place is miles away though. I called it the never ending journey. So we got to our cottage in the middle of the woods in St Austell, driving there did remind me of Bram Stokers Dracula a little bit. The road seemed more appropriate for horse carriages rather than cars. The cottage was gorgeous though. Escapism value to the max. So off we strode into the merlin esque village looking for a decent eatery. Didn’t have to venture far to find this little gem.
Looking rather modest from the outside, the interior was fairly spacious and décor was fantastic. There was even a decent sized seating area outside which on this occasion was mute due to the atrocious weather.
The service was fantastic as you’d expect from a village restaurant. The owner was very pleasant and kindly informed us he once visited when Oldham when we told him we were from up north. The food was fantastic and the recommendations made were immaculate. This after all after a shaky start when I was disgusted by the pathetic excuse for popadoms they served.
If you ever find yourself in this sleepy village in Cornwall be sure to visit this place. What’s more if you are close enough they;ll even deliver the food to you. I was impressed enough with the food to have it delivered the next night to the cottage. Result!!!
