Norwich – Prince of India – Second Norfolk Curry

Spice of India Norwich Curry-Heute (16)Norwich Namaste India Curry-Heute (1)

Dr. Stan bade farewell for this day. Hector had not eaten for ten hours, there was a Curry House open just around the corner from the Travelodge, well what do you expect?
Being after 23.00, Hector had to confirm that the Prince of India (19 Prince of Wales Rd., Norwich NR1 1BD) was still serving. Initially I was offered a Takeaway but managed to secure a seat. I was shown to one of the partitioned areaSpice of India Norwich Curry-Heute (3)s half way into the restaurant. What I thought was a member of staff having his late night dinner sat through the glass. When his Dining Partner re-joined him I concluded otherwise. They were given the Soupiest of Curry, this had to be avoided.
A Young Waiter brought the Menu, Hector was taking no risks. I did not even open it.
Lamb, Methi, Dry, Thick…
The Waiter put his pad away and sent for a Superior. The order was taken, no problem, no Capsicum. Mushroom Pilau would accompany, Hector will order Bread only when he is confident of securing Dry Curry. Spicy.

Prince of India is one of the oldest Curry Houses in Norwich. The online Menu shows a variety of Styles. Hash E will be the choice if I end up back here, it is written as Dry. Green Peppers permeate too many Dishes for this commentator’s taste.
Spice of India Norwich Curry-Heute (8)What came impressed immediately. The Masala was Minimal, enough to shroud the Tender Lamb. The Masala was Thick, the Spice was in one’s face – almost Mexican Chilli.
How is it? Exactly as I asked.

The Fresh Mushrooms in the Rice gave the required Variety of Texture. This was a Delightful Curry. Had I been given the – Soup – that I saw across the partition, I would have been far from happy.

The Aftermath
The Calling Card was handed over to what appeared to be Mein Host at the Bar. I asked for my Waiter, the congratulatory photo.
I asked, you served it. Thank you.
