TL;DR: I will just cut to the chase this time and say that Curry Zone provides some of the best quality Indian which I have had in a long time. They are newbies, and I say to them God-speed. We have ourselves another potential winner, this time in Wishart, opening up yet another Indian restaurant. These will generally range from serviceable to some of the best dining in town, and the consistent aspect about them is the reliability. You can rock up at any time just walking in, or most of them will happily delve into to the whole delivery service. Quite a solid number can do both, and that presumably is the case with Curry Zone in Wishart. Whatever your chosen method is, the recommendation will be straight off the bat - get there while you can, as this is some pretty good grub that they have on hand. Continuing the big week of wrestling on the WWE Network, it was time for the "big one" of the two events. Backlash had returned in good form, and that meant finding another place to order for some delivery. Most of the time, it is sort of random or by ear for what to get - but not this time. With the WWE touting and pushing a potential Indian champion, being all idiosyncratic it had to be Indian to break him in. After a failed try with one place at UberEats, right off the bat I went over to MenuLog and logged an order in for the coming Monday night. The service went a bit weird. This has happened to me before, and the delivery driver came on the night that the food order was made and not for when it was requested. This was bizarre coming back from volunteer work at night to find the full order ready on the counter. ... Maybe not the greatest of customer service that is around - attention to detail is key here - but I will take this over wondering where my order is (i.e. a way late delivery) any day of the week. When it comes down to the food, you more or less have the same range of stuff as with most Indian places. There is the selection of entrees, both with fried and tandoori options, that can also be gotten in a platter form. Coming to the curries, the selection becomes a bit thinner than usual - the meats are just lamb and chicken along with some choices in seafood. Vegetarians are catered for as well, with a decent selection of curries that are mainly paneer. Then we come to the extras which maketh the Indian meal. That is the breads, the different kinds of rice (which includes a couple of biriyanis), accompaniments, desserts,  and the drinks. Each one is fairly modest in size, and contributes to the simplified image that they have going on. It is early days yet, so maybe the menu will expand some more. Indian is one of those cuisines where it is hard to stop and exclude any aspect of the whole meal I have found. Nevertheless, I was going huge for this event and played it by ear what to get. That was a couple of different entrees, three sorts of curries (getting a feel for the different meats) and it is incomplete without naan and rice (the latter was done and managed at home). Plus a lassi here, and some sweets and it was one good, solid meal for a good event. Starting off with the entrees, two of the most reliable ones were chosen - that is the onion bhaji and the sheesh kebab. Both of them were nicely spicy, and had a smoky after-taste in them. With the sheesh kebab, in the lamb mince there was not one bit of scraggy meat which makes it all the better, showing a good attention to detail and making for a tasty, meat treat at the start which was very tender, and a good introduction to the meal. Then we get onto the onion bhaji, and it is always hard to top off from the last one - but they have found a way. For the most part, the main reason for that is because of the serving size. Most of the time, what is gotten is several big balls of fried onion. Here, while they were not in any sort of shape, the quantity amounted to a full paper bag of them. The bhaji was well spiced, with onions that were soft and sweet, plus the texture was not too oily either. It is without a doubt the bhajis would remain within the recommended foods to get, but this time around they are certainly recommended without any doubts. On the side, there was a mango lassi (serviceable and what you would expect from one - creamy, thick, and fruity), the garlic naan which was delicious as always and melded well with the butter on the bread and the minced garlic in the dough, and the sweet, delicious, moreish doughnut holes which are otherwise known as gulab jamun. All of this completed the entire meal, making it for one filling and satisfying dinner. Now we get to the curries. The ones that I got were a chicken korma, a rogan josh, and a malai kofta. Each one of these was tasty, and none too spicy either - in spite of one of them (I forget the one) being requested as hot. When it comes to the vegetable curries, one of the best and most memorable comes from the cheese ones, and another example is when it is kofta - soft potato balls soaking in the sauce. While the cheese being alluded to was not present here, that did not make it any less than it was; the sauce was smooth and creamy, the spices quite nice and it made for a soothing curry next to the others. The rogan josh was the fiery one, and was not without its fair share of being spicy. It was smoky, and the lamb meat which was used was some of the most tender that I have had in some time. The amount in the curry was generous, and did not get lost in a vat of the sauce, ergo value for money is being collected. As was with the chicken korma - smooth and nutty, plenty of tender bits of chicken breast and thigh, while I pass over it a lot in recent years times like this make it could to come back and see why it is one of the most popular and common items on an Indian curry menu. All three curries were as good as the others, and for once it is with complete honesty that I say no one was a weak link and it is tough to locate who was the star. This time around, everyone was a star. At a first glance, what it seemed was that everything was in order for some good Indian food and that may have been that. It got a bit better due to the food all being consistent quality, with nary a weak spot to be found in it all. That came down to meat that was tender, sauces that were subtly spiced and distinctive from one another, and a delicious naan to round it up among numerous other factors. Sometimes what you consider the best sort of goes stealth in your mind for a bit before it becomes apparent; that was the case with Curry Zone. If there was ever an Indian place in which I could damn well give it a good 5.0-score, then this was about as close as it could get (and that is not something I say lightly, or had initial thoughts of - brew on that for a moment). About the only thing that is stopping it at the moment is that there may be one or two places that I have in mind in town that I have hype for, and until then it is all a case if they live up to the hype. As it is, as of now, Curry Zone may well be among the best places to get your Indian fix from, mainly due to how even the onion bhaji were nicely spiced and all the other components were very tasty. It is rare to find something as consistent as this on a high level, but when it is found you know it has been found. Just a tip, when it is with plenty more people out - be sure to order a lot, as the portions are good for one or two people but more might be a struggle.

I've seen this place set up booths at the occasional local food festival, but their brick and mortar location of course has more to offer.

Although this Indian restaurants lacks space their food makes up for it.
