Square Meal Review of Mango & Silk ?

Indian restaurants are commonplace hereabouts, but Mango & Silk stands out because of its cheerful eager-to-help service, its seemly lilac-hued surroundings & above all its talented chef. At the stove is the effervescent chef & food writer Udit Sarkhel, who forged his reputation at the Bombay Brasserie. His once-experimental style has been tempered, & you’ll now find an eclectic mix of dishes from across the subcontinent. Followers can’t resist Sarkhel’s Hyderabadi chicken sixers & the eye-watering Goan prawn masala. Jardaloo ma gosht, where apricots & straw potatoes counteract the heat, is pretty tempting too. British curry traditionalists are also catered for, with lamb rogan josh, chicken korma & chicken tikka masala all up to the mark. The woman who runs the front of house is well-practised at making wine recommendations.

    Having eaten at this restaurant for several years on many occasions and enjoyed it, I recently had a terrible experience there. I was with my mother and it was their Sunday buffet. When we commented to the very friendly manageress that the food that day was poor and not up to their usual standards, the chef, Mr Sarkhel, overheard the comments and literally went ballistic. He accused us of not knowing what we were talking about, that he had been a chef for 35 years and we were just prejudiced. We were so taken aback by his outburst that we had to leave the restaurant. The manageress looked very distressed and kept on apologizing. It was such a horrible experience we obviously can never go back to this restaurant again. And that is a shame. But behaviour like that simply is not acceptable.
