Tandoori Knights via FoodHub (Cambuslang, Glasgow): Review

74 Main Street
Glasgow, G72 7EP
United Kingdom

The Delivery

I fancied something different this week so I opened up the FoodHub app and placed an order from Tandoori Knights, and this is what I ordered.

Regular Veg Pakora £3.50

I like all pakora’s but more recently veg pakora has been the one I have always opted for.

I have found veg pakora can be hit or miss depending on where you are, or who you order from and I can’t remember if I have ever tried it for here.

These came with a dip, but I like to always try them on their own first then with the dip.

Ohh these were very nice, they were perfectly cooked, had a nice crunch and tasted very yummy.

With the dip that added extra flavour and again very very nice.

My Rating :

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Chicken Tikka Pasanda £9.50

Something different for me, as I tend to stick to the same curries but nope not tonight.

Oh wow this was really nice, the rice was really nice and well cooked and the curry has a lovely creamy coconut flavour to it.

This was similar to a korma but has a slight and I mean slight kick to the curry.

I am glad I tried something different, and would order this again.

Donner Hoggie £5.00

I wanted to order this again, as I have had this before as I love Donner meat so much.

This was really nice, though the chips could have been cooked just for a few more seconds to add that extra crunch to them.

The sauce and the meat was perfect and the whole bite was mmmm

Tonights takeaway was very nice, and packed with flavour and I could easily have more of the vegetable pakora.

The Rum Slinger Subscription Box 004 (Govanhill): Review

This Months Box

Inside each months box you have your 3 rums to try, plus an information leaflet to tell you about each rum and its tasting notes.

This Months Rums:

R.L. Seales

ABV : 46%

Style : Dark, 10 years

I started with this one, as it was the first one to grab my attention.

This was a new rum name for me, so I was excited to give it a try and see what I thought.

Firstly the smell I got slight hints of caramel, so it was off to a good start.

Taste-wise ohh this was a strong one, first I got a kick from the strength of this which disappeared fast. Then the flavours started to come through, a nice vanilla caramel subtle hint ending on a nice aftertaste.

This is a nice rum, and I could easily see me drinking this one again.

Plantation 3 Star

ABV : 41.2%

Style : White

I liked the white rum from the previous box, so I was interested to see how this one was.

I opened the bottle and poured it out, and took a smell.

This has a really lovely and sweet and light flavour, even the aftertaste was very nice.

I actually preferred this to the R.L Seales, as I think its sweeter which hits my tastebuds better.

I am now away to add this one to my Amazon Wish List.

Foursquare Spiced

ABV : 37.5%

Style : Spiced

This one I saved for last as I like a nice spiced rum, due to the sweetness.

This had a very subtle caramel sweet smell, now time to pour it.

Oh ok, this caught me off guard, with my first taste I was expecting a caramel or vanilla flavour which I didn’t get. For some reason, I got cinnamon and just a mix of spices aftertaste but I couldn’t pinpoint what ones.

There is zero burn, and its very very smooth.

This is a really nice rum, it’s not one I would say is your typical spiced rum but its one that I could easily enjoy again and again.

This is another one I am adding to my Amazon Wishlist.

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Overall :

This was probably the most surprising box for me, as I really enjoyed the white rum and the spiced rum caught me off guard with its taste.

I have loved all these rums, and as you have seen even added a few to my wish list on Amazon.

Unfortunately this will be my last box review, as I am now watching the money as I am looking for a mortgage but please do subscribe and support these guys.

If you like rum and fancy getting some each month delivered to your doorstep then check them out.
