Masala Wok

As you must have guessed from the name, this restaurant serves Indian as well as Indo-Chinese cuisine. I was invited to try out their food. 

The interiors are colourful and have a desi feel to it. We started with a nice welcome drink which was refreshing and had a berry flavour to it. 

We started with some really nice soups. I liked the talumein chicken soup which we had with some noodles on top, as well as the lemon coriander soup

The dragon chicken looked really good and tasted nice too. Though it was just a starter, it was a little saucy which I liked. 

Chinese bhel had a good taste to it, but nothing extra-ordinary. I felt they could have done more with it. 

The chicken wontons looked appealing and were really crunchy, and the filling was good too. 

I like prawns in general and I was looking forward to the tandoori prawns when they got us some. These tasted average, and were a bit dry for my liking. 

The chef's special kebab was perhaps the most interesting one. The way it is served as well as the flavours. These are an assortment of kebabs which had a nice flavour and were soft too. 

The masala wok special chicken kebab was also yummy. It has minced chicken inside chicken tikka, and has a smokey flavour to it. 

Another starter which I liked was the chicken lollipop tossed with schezwan sauce. It is a nice twist to the lollipop. Also, the chicken was really soft, and this was saucy too. 

For our drinks, we had the shikanji which felt really refreshing. It wasn't too sweet or too tangy but just right. 
The lemon mint juice was also really good and refreshing. I liked the minty taste that it had to it. 
If you're a fan of raw mango then you should try the aam panna. Though they use syrup, it did taste pretty good and it isn't something that too many places have. 
If you're more of a sweet tooth person, then the Oreo shake will appeal to you. It wasn't overly sweet, but had a good consistency to it. 

For the mains, we had the masala wok special fried rice which has rice topped with keema gravy. This was a really good combination. 

The desi kukkad gravy is also something that you should try. It was served with the sizzle and the smoke coming out of it, and tasted fantastic. 

For the vegetarians, the paneer do-pyaza gravy is really a nice option. The paneer was soft and the gravy was delicious. 

The chicken chowmein was loaded and had some egg in it too. The noodles felt a bit thicker than usual though. 

If you like something with a more strong flavour then the hot garlic chicken gravy will definitely suit your palate. It was on the spicier side and a tad bit tangy too, along with the garlic flavour. 

For fans of sea-food, do try the pomfret rava masala. It didn't have too many bones in it and was flavourful. 

We had the gravies along with a selection of fresh Indian breads.

For the dessert, I totally enjoyed the sizzling brownie. The brownie was gooey and more chocolaty than usual. 

Another one which I really liked was the moong dal halwa. I definitely recommend trying this one. 

The royal falooda was not too bad either. It has ice-cream, vermicelli, and lots more in it. 

A Chinese dessert was the honey fried noodles with ice-cream. The noodles were crispy, and tasted nice along with the vanilla ice-cream drizzled with some rose syrup. 

Overall, I really liked this place. The Chinese was a bit better than the Indian food, though everything was really good overall.
