Jaisalmer Palace Indian Restaurant, Bourke St, Melbourne




Tim and I recently went for an Indian curry dinner at Jaisalmer Palace Indian Restaurant.  We had been hoping to go to a curry house further up the street, but it was full, and the nice man on the door at Jaisalmer had invited us in, so we thought we'd give it a go.

Jaisalmer is lavishly furnished with wooden tables and chairs, as depicted at the top of this post.  They have an extensive curry menu to chose from, including vegetarian options.

I chose the Aloo Ghobi (potato, peas, cauliflower in spicy sauce) ($12):

 
while Tim chose the Madras beefy curry ($18):
 

We also ordered a plain rice ($4):


and a Kashmiri naan stuffed with dried fruits and nuts ($4.50):


All of the food was hearty and delicious, and warming for a cold winter night.  The service was friendly and efficient.  We'd go back to Jaisalmer Palace.

Ooh, that's an interesting presentation of rice :)...naan and curry are one of the most flavourful Indian fave foods we know :)
