Indian takeaway

Despite being Indian, I actually don't like Indian food all that much. So I was understandably disappointed when my parents brought home takeaway from a place at Epping Station - Hothi's Indian Restaurant and proclaimed it as my dinner. That said, as a food blogger, I'll try to make a useful review of it.

I tried two of the dishes, the chicken vindaloo in the image above, and also some butter chicken. The butter chicken in my opinion was beyond horrible - It had an unpleasant neutral taste that was nothing like any butter chicken I've had before (mainly because it lacked the sweetish taste that I've come to associate with the dish). It was like they'd just made a weird orange curry to pour onto their chicken and then realised that it resembled butter chicken. On the other hand, the vindaloo was really good. It had a strong spicy texture and aroma and was accompanied by a thick curry.

So I wouldn't say Hothi's is a horrible place to eat, but it might be wise to avoid dishes that are typically sweet if you go there.
