We were introduced by our friends A&M where they celebrated their
son first communion here. On Saturday night it can be difficult to
find this building as the surroundings are very quiet and dark. Not
recommended if you do not have your own transport. Should you able to
come this area, you will be rewarded with atmosphere closer to
private dining, as there are almost no other customers and you will
have their full attention in serving you.

Appetizer
was baked papadum, instead of deep fried. It is crispy, not oily but
slightly thicker and harder in some part.

In normal
Indian customs, it is common to start with grilled meat. We had
chicken tikka ($14) and mixed grill platter ($26) as entrée. The
chicken tikka is well marinated with hung-curd and spices. It is
tender, succulent with a bit of heat in the dish.

The mixed
grilled platter is a combination of Tandori Prawn, Mince lamb kebab,
reshimi (mince chicken) kebab, chicken tikka and fish. The mince lamb
and chicken are well marinated, flavourful, succulent with minimum
trace of gaminess in the meat . The juice are sealed in the meat
internally, so it remain tender and succulent. Unfortunately the
prawn end up in someone else plate before I manage to savour it.

For the
kids that can't take spicy stuff, they had Chicken 65 ($12) for
starter. Deep fried to perfection, it is crispy yet succulent. The
seasoning was just right.

The main
meal consist Butter Chicken ($14), Palak Paneer ($14), Rogan Gosht
($16) with Chicken Briyani ($16), Lamb Briyani ($16) and selections
of Naans.

The
Butter chicken has a thick, rich and creamy gravy to go with
succulent chicken. This dish is best to accompany the moist and
fluffy naans. Surprisingly the butter chicken here packs a subtle
heat.

Both of
the briyani are flavourful. The chicken and lamb slowly cooked with
the basmati rice, allowing their flavours to infused into the rice
together with the rest of the herbs. The portion is huge and served
in Indian copper pot and filled to the brim. The rice is fluffy and
not starchy.

Rogan
Gosht is tasty and flavourful, however the lamb will be better if its
cooked longer. As the cut of the meat is lean, it turn out to be
tougher than expected. Palak Paneer is our favourite dish. The
blended spinach and cottage cheese are nice and made us feel less
guilty of eating all those nice proteins and curry.

At the
end to cool down the burning flames from the curry, it is nice to
have mango lassi ($4).

The
atmosphere of the place is bright and decorated with modern Indian
flair. There are buffet line on the right side of the restaurant,
that are available during weekday lunch and dinner. The chandelier
just made the place looks classy. The service during the night was
good and attentive, as there was not many customers at night.
Overall,
Ras Bites serve delicious and authentic Indian food. The briyani &
naan are great, and the price are reasonable. We look forward to our
next visit. Cheers!!
