Welcome to the Chilli Chaps review website

Chap 1’s pick this month and onto the Tiffin Wala we went!

It’s been snuck away around the corner on the parade of shops in Blackwater for years,  just sitting there minding its own business and getting on with things I guess.

It always used to look a bit gloomy to be honest, but entering it was lovely and bright with a funky bit of neon lighting going on which was a pleasant surprise.

The Proprietor is a friendly soul and gave us all a friendly “thumbs up” on entry, and we were treated to a fair few more of these as the evening went on which we all enjoyed and found quite endearing.

​

Doms were nice and fresh and there was no quibbling about wheeling us out some more chutneys when we’d polished off the first lot.

Draught Cobra on offer which is always a good sign; Chap 2 was my Wife for the evening and we shared a mixed starter together – a bit of tandoori salmon and some other meats – and there was a lot of it.

Mains arrived and were of a fair quantity; I had a lamb dish which was supposedly meant to contain a bit of mint, but I can’t remember it being very minty so no thumbs up for this I’m afraid.

Definitely a unique offering though and lots of big lumps of onion and stuff going on – I’d go as far as to describe the dishes as having an “earthy” feel to them and perhaps even a little amateurish, but tasty none the less and don’t let that put you off.

​

Nice service overall though and I’d definitely go back and get involved again, though the finishing touches could be improved upon slightly.

Onwards and upwards and let the quest continue!
