Pukka at Ashoka

My husband and I went to local Ashoka Brasserie restaurant recently. It was one Monday lunchtime, looking for somewhere different to try. Ashoka is doing midweek two course lunch menu for £5.95 (it's even better if weekends as it's £4.95!).

We were seated at a nice cosy booth. The menu has very good selection, catering non-meaters like ourselves without any problem (http://ashokabrasserie.com/v1/wp-content/uploads/midweekLunch.jpg).

We both ordered Vegetable Pakora for starter. Pakoras were freshly made and very tasty.



For main course, I ordered Prawn Spicy Tikka Masala. The menu informed us that the sauce is a true Brasserie favourite, a mouth-watering blend with a rich exotic marinade and hot spices cooked with peppers, onions and fresh coriander. My husband ordered Prawn Bhoona, a rich flavoursome condensed sauce with ginger, garlic and tomatoes. These were served with rice for me and naan bread for him which we shared. Well, the dishes were really mouth-watering and flavoursome indeed.
Portion was quite good but we could barely finish all. And it was only £5.95 for all these! It was definitely V4M! What a pukka at Ashoka!

I shall look for more V4M lunchtime deal and let you know.

That's all forks!
