Paul's review
The first
visit by the club to a new restaurant in Leicester. The Shimla Pinks is part
of national chain of about 8 curry houses. It is very modern inside,
none of your flocked wallpaper, as found in most places. We opted for the
set banquet and the food just kept coming until we could eat no more. The
food was of a good standard with popadom's worth a note, as they were only
the size of a 2 pound coin, but we got a lots of them.
Because of the moden open plan it did tend to be a bit noisy but
there was a good atmosphere helped greatly by the staff and manager. This
place is well worth a visit if you would like a change from the traditional
curry house that can be found all over Leicester.
