Gaylord, Hong Kong

English

Gaylord is a fantastic dining find right in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui.

As soon as one steps in, the sense of luxury and royalty is immediately felt.  This is Indian fine dining done right.  There are red chandeliers and cream and red upholstery.  One dines on linen table cloths and fine China.

Vegetable Samosas (4 pcs)

Crisp spiced coned patties stuffed with potatoes and peas

The samosas are very generous and flavourful.

Tandoori Chicken

Barbecued spring chicken marinated in a saffron flavoured spiced yoghurt

The tandoori is generous and comes steaming hot.  The colour is beautiful and the flavour has completely permeated the meat. The chicken is tender and juicy on the inside.

Rogan Josh Kashmiri

Tender boneless lamb in an onion and red pepper sauce

The lamb shank curry was wonderful.  It was extremely, extremely flavourful and the lamb shanks were particularly tender. The tenderness of the shank particularly stood out in my mind.

It was great to balance a rich and flavourful meal with spinach.  They made the cheese cubes in the spinach themselves.

Garlic Naan

As someone who grew up with Indian cuisine, I can attest that all the dishes are most authentic.  This restaurant is literally 5 mins away from Tsim Sha Tsui by foot.

For authentic Indian cuisine in a fine dining environment, Gaylord is the place.
