Marky Rana Review of Bolina
The most amazing taste sensation. Vegetable Manchu...
The most amazing taste sensation. Vegetable Manchurian (Dry), the sauce is so good, you will need extra Roti to mop the bowl clean. Make sure your dish comes with a good portion of sauce. This has the texture and taste of Swedish meatballs, but 100% vegetables and just better IMHO. I defy anyone to make a better tasting meatball.
I love mushrooms and their stuffed mushrooms are the best I have tasted in very very long time. Excuse my Kiwi ignorance, but I think they are stuffed with their Aloo Mutter (I will ask them next time), crumbed, then deep fried. They are not greasy or oily, and the explosion of tastes as you bite into them. They are juicy, the mushroom is firm, the coating is crisp and the filling just adds a whole new dimension to such a complimentary range of tastes. Make sure you ask for your mushrooms to be CRUMBED.
The "Thali Plate", our preference is Thali Plate #1 (2 x Roti) vs the #2 which is 1 x Naan. Generous portions and just so so good. I really can't say enough about these plates and the best value for money in Christchurch. If you want to experience the freshest and perfectly cooked paneer dish, then you should experience it here, you won't be disappointed.
For the 2 of us, our meals work out to 17.75 pp. Stuffed Mushrooms, Veg Manchurian, Thali Plate #1 and a Bread Pakora ($2.50).
My apologies to all the other Indian restaurants, but this place is too hard to beat
