From the outset of Curry-Heute in 2010, I have never criticised those who go to their favourite Curry House and have the same thing every week. Why risk disappointment? They don’t – blog.
Not going to Karahi Palace (51-53 Nelson Street, Tradeston, Glasgow, G5 8DZ) at least once a month would be purgatory for Hector. Maybe only once a month is a denial of pleasure. It is written oft that I could eat their Karahi Lamb (£12.00) every day. Well, every other day, the Lamb Korma Spicy (£10.00) is a worthy alternative.
Karahi Lamb
Today’s Karahi Lamb was off the scale. Curry-Heute does not generally do scores, but this was – eleven. Ayaz, Mein Host, and currently Head Chef, had the Seasoning right on the edge. As a consequence, the full Flavours in the Masala were released. There were continuing moments of ecstasy whilst I slowly devoured this Karahi.
Food served so hot, care had to be taken at the start. Beautifully Tender Meat also – giving – of Flavour, So few venues, anywhere, achieve this. The solitary Chapatti (£1.00) was but a means of conveyance. This was all about the contents of the karahi, the abundant Tomato-based Masala. Today’s Karahi was more Oily, even Soupy in comparison to their standard. With only a threat of sliced Green Chillies, the Spice Level was not OTT. By deliberately letting the Coriander and Ginger Strips on top cook in the hot Oil, they added another dimension towards the end. Hector was beside himself today, pleasure in the extreme.
It was the new chap who greeted me on my arrival at 14.20. The Order was relayed, only then did Ayaz appear from the side kitchen. Two tables were 
occupied. Two chaps at one, what had to be Nihari was possibly being shared along with Seekh Kebab. The chap beside me also had Seekh Kebab. The four of us ate in companionable silence, not a word spoken. Not a morsel left on any plate.
We knew why we were here, as did the fifth diner who took the far table. I fail to comprehend why more people are not.
As I finished, Ayaz instructed his young colleague to shut the door and lower the shutters.
The Bill
£13.00 No charge today for the Hector tweaks.
The Aftermath
You’re closing?
They had a huge Order for a charity event this evening.
All hands to the pump. I hope this went well.
Why do more punters not frequent the place ? .. The exterior appearance. It looks a shit hole. I know ” never judge a book etc ” but that is what most folks do. But if they are making a profit why spent money tarting the front up. That is obviously their thinking.
Hector replies:
I admit to walking past for years. I can only draw people’s attention to the wonders that are served here.
There were plans to upgrade the service at least, however, they did fall on hard time last year. I doubt profits are what they could be, and the fact that the Barclay’s peeps still work from home means it remains an undiscovered gem.
