Had a lovely meal at Guchhi on Saturday night. The place was busy, but overall it didn't feel harried to dine there - in fact, it was the opposite. The tapas dishes were tasty (black lentils - all chipotle smoky goodness, what a surprise!) with only the chargrilled prawns feeling like the poorer child, but only in flavour, but beautifully cooked. Aloo chana was fantastic and sealed the meat-eating Silent Reviewer's fate as a chickpea lover (it won't be long now til I get him off bovine and onto bream and broccoli!). Sweet and sour haddock had a lovely delicate flavour - much more understated than that of the Chinese variety. \n\nFor me, I wasn't a big fan of the naans we ordered, I found them too thin and dry, but the SR disagreed on that particular point. And 2-3 tapas dishes - more than plenty, especially when sharing, even though I really did want to squeeze in the scallops with chilli butter, we just couldn't. But, it's a place I want to return to, so hopefully next time, I will.
