1.7.17 Rajmoni Lower Earley

Took a bit of time to find this restaurant in a residential area. 
It was busy with a wedding party going on.
Alan had sheesh kebab for starter which was quite tasty. Some of the wedding party then treated us to a song as they serenaded the groom. 
Alan had Naga murgh Masala and I had the usual. Considering the restaurant was so busy, the service was very quick and friendly, even the missing knife and fork.
Mine was a little bland. 7 1/2
Proper towels and fresh orange....which we haven't had for a long time, then complimentary drinks as we had sat next to a young family brings it up to 8
