Chap Review

So the Ancient Raj in Frimley – courtesy of one of the excellent “buy a voucher for 25 nicker / receive 50 nickers worth of grub”  offers on  96.4 Radio Eagle,  so we got involved.

I worked out that personally I’d not dined here for over 15 years, however on entering I remember the place being a whole lot bigger with a more tables and seating…..   later on one of the Chaps asked about this, and the Proprietor (we think) confirmed they’d sold off space next door to them which have been converted into shops or eateries respectively.

Anyway: nice fresh doms & chutneys and things were ticking over well.

The Beer selection proved to be very limited and if you don’t like bottled Cobra you’re buggered ! 

 I was compelled to quiz our waiter why there are COBRA and other beer pumps signifying  draught was available, and he confirmed these were there for “decorative purposes” only which was a shame.

We shared our starters as normal and these were tasty but average.

Main meals arrived and were extremely large portions, but out of the 4 x different meals served I’d say that only 1 x meal stood out and the other 3 x very average.

The place was empty apart from us, so the staff were just hanging around looking quite miserable which put us off a bit to be honest…..   I guess it’s always a tough call for the staff when it’s quiet – hang around and try to be attentive, or give the customers some privacy etc.

No finishing touches to round things off and we cleared off quite underwhelmed after our meal.

I’ve no idea how well this restaurant is doing in terms of trade on their hopefully busier days, but it was on the whole a poor experience for us only made better by the voucher.

Onwards and upwards and they all need Chilli Chapping !!!
