I had the good fortune to dine at Mayur Indian Restaurant in Naas town, over the weekend.
Mayur Indian Restaurant, open under new management is an incredible experience.
The restaurant is operated under the same management and chef at renowned Mayur in Portlaoise town.
Both my friend and I were deeply impressed by the decor at the new Mayur in Naas. The ambiance is relaxed and the staff are so friendly.
For starters we had a mixed meal platter for two. This really is a simple and delightful way to savour a selection of tandoori cooking. There was an assortment of prawns, chicken and lamb.
It was just simply delicious, melt in your mouth, gorgeous.
Coorgi pork fry for starters comes highly recommended also, this includes stir friend strips of pork fillet with smoked dried chilli.
Next up was the main course. I had Baruchi Lamb and my friend had Chicken Lababdar.
The Baruchi Lamb includes slow braised lamb chunks cooked with coconut and tamarind, finished with mustard seeds and curry leaves.
It was again, just divine, so tasty, juicy, sumptuous.
My friend’s dish was also gorgeous, containing spinach, cheese, pineapple, onion, raisins and almond stuffed chicken supreme cooked in a mild creamy saffron sauce.
Other dishes that come highly recommended in the mains are Parsi Duck and Goan Sea- Food Curry.
Parsi Duck is a female burberry duck breast roasted in chargrilled tandoor and cooked with green vegetables, sweet and sour tangy onion sauce.
The Goan Sea- Food Curry contain black tiger prawns, crab claws and mussels simmered in a smooth coconut and chilli masale paste.
Next up was dessert, which was simply beautiful, mango kulfi.
Overall, I would give this place 10/10 for ambiance, friendly staff, value for money and beautiful food. Manager Ajay Parsad runs an efficient and friendly restaurant with an ambiance second to none.
