My cousin Gats came down on a business trip, so we decided to head out to Clarke Quay at the last minute with his colleague Go. He was staying nearby, so it was very convenient. It was also pretty late and not many other places were probably open.
Anyways, we decided to have dinner at this Indian restaurant called RAS. The atmosphere is pretty nice and authentic, but because its Clarke Quay, its very touristy. We ordered the tandoori chicken, butter chicken curry, palak paneer, vegetable briyani, and a couple of naans. They started us off with papadums with chilli sauce and a mint sauce. The mint sauce was quite nice.
The tandoori chicken came out first and it was pretty nice. Both Gats and Go were quite impressed at the amount of flavor coming from the chicken. They assured me that they can't get this kind of Indian food back home. They really enjoyed it.
Next up was the butter chicken curry, palak paneer and the vegetable briyani. The curry was ok, but I believe I have had much better elsewhere. The palak paneer was also not something that made me jump up and down or tell mom about. Neither was the vegetable briyani. My classmates can do much much better. However, I think G&G were really enjoying their first taste of authentic Indian fare. It doesn't sound like much, but that was alot of food. We were extremely full by the end of the dinner.
Overall, the food was nice, but it was quite expensive. Especially since I think there is much better Indian food served all over Singapore. I would not go back there or recommend it to any of my friends. Once is enough...
