Thursday Night Is Curry Night
Another successful curry night at the Staple Hill Oak last night. Had the Prawn Malabar curry. Quite nice but the prawns were a bit chewy. This problem is usually encountered because the prawns end up being cooked twice. Once in the food factory and again in the microwave or pan when they are heated up before being served. Still never mind the curry sauce was lovely although the naan bread was a little on the flourery side and little bit cold. Anyway the beer was good. Tried a Loddon Bamboozle 4.8%. A light coloured pale ale with a nice hoppy flavour. Next was the Bath Ales Barnstormer 4.5% a dark beer verging almost on the stout side. Also shared a bottle of Hardy's Shiraz with Jim and Geoff. No real moans or rants from last night just a pleasant evening spent in pleasant company.
