I sort of look forward to Monday lunch at the Rite-Spot, as it is usually a big curry special. I say “sort of” because a lot of the time “Curry Monday” is an excuse to get rid of all the weird vegetables in the fridge, and today was no exception. After starving until 2pm (as usual) I was served an enormous place of Celeriac and Romanesco Broccoli Curry. What the heck? If you aren’t familiar with Romanesco, it is this strange broccoflower type stuff that looks like cool fractals. But in a curry? Well, for one the green colour looked strange in the sauce. I sighed a heavy sigh and sat down to eat. The fractals were pretty and it was garnished with cilantro and toasted almonds. Not bad, not bad at all. I thought it could be saucier and spicier, and maybe contain less vegetables and more butter and chicken….please can we have butter chicken next week??? PLEASE????

At least it was served with organic lemonade and perrier instead of the boring tap water I usually get.
