Having seen a number of Facebook posts recently from Kitchen Royale (based in Crawley, West Sussex), I decided to give them a go as the photographs I had seen of the dishes looked pretty good. They say they want to break the myth about Indian Punjabi Cuisine being unhealthy, well I can say, this was Punjabi perfection delivered to our door.
I am all for supporting local businesses and I can genuinely say we weren’t disappointed. I messaged our order through the day before, giving our delivery time and what we wanted and hey presto, Saturday evening it was delivered on schedule.
We opted for:
- Punjabi onion pakora
- Special Punjabi Aloo (peppers and potatoes)
- Jeera rice (basmati rice cooked with cumin)
- Plain naan and chilli naan,
- Chicken tikka masala
- Punjabi chicken curry
- Shahi Pork kofta curry (lean pork mince meatballs slow cooked in a spicy traditional Punjabi gravy)
- Punjabi mutton sheek kebab
- Poppadums and complimentary dips
All dishes were fresh and packed full of flavour, good portion sizes and very good value for money, no delivery charge as well (within 2 mile radius of RH11). I can’t fault any of the dishes or the service received, the only little comment I would make (as I do like my chilli) is that I would prefer a bit more chilli on the chilli naan, but that is just a personal preference.
The complimentary dips with the poppadums were very tasty, mint, yoghurt, tamarind and chilli, a perfect accompaniment to the crispy goodness.
Given the current climate it’s great to see a small local business getting out there with authentic, tasty cuisine. Keep up the great work Kitchen Royale, support local, give them a go, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed!
Place your orders up to 2pm on the day of delivery as everything is cooked fresh and to order.
