Ruchi Indian Restaurant, Chicken tikka dansak and accompaniments
The Ruchi Indian restaurant was one of my favourites in Southend on Sea, and I stopped going as I had one disappointing meal. However, we went back in February 2009 and it was as lovely as it ever was. The staff are very nice and the food was great. Pictured here is the chicken tikka dansak (just the right amount of sweet, sour and heat), Bombay potatoes, garlic naan, cucumber raitha and a lamb Rogan Josh. Delightful!
It is comfortable and modern with bench seating and normal seating. Everything is clean and fresh.
They have, on occasion, organised themed music night as well, which we have been to. We saw the ABBA night and the two lady singers were pretty good. Of course, you have to have the set meal, but it is something different.
