Mid Week Buffet

Decided to pop in and try the mid week buffet at The Ocean Village on Bridge Street in Maidenhead last night with two friends.

Now we believe at the FFCC that what you pay is not an indicator of quality when it comes to curry and so an offer of £6 cash only for a buffet we were optimistic.

Sadly it was not to be - the food was not bad it was perfectly fine but just very very bland flavouring. Which was a shame.

These guys are always friendly and polite and welcoming and we have eaten here before with mixed results and last night was more of the same.

Choice of starters, samosa, bhaji, chicken tikka and spices all very ordinary: mains was a choice of three curries, two chicken and one lamb all with tender meat but again just very bland, making food as bland as this is crime... We are sure locals will throw their arms up in outcry but thus is very bland ordinary curry and these guys can do so much better.

Won't be trying the mid week buffet again a definite 4/10. .
