Review of the week - Saffron

This week's Review of the Week winner started with a spark of desire for change, and ended up with a meal that, despite a literal bump in the road, was flawless. Ordering on the fly (or drive), precisely-timed delivery, lovingly-cooked food – the whole thing like clockwork. She even managed to make good use of the garnishes that topped the dishes.


"After a long day at work, endlessly typing away at my desk, much like I am now, I decided to take a chance in life, take a break from my usual microwave meal and order a curry through Hungry House.

I placed my order through my iPhone on the commute home and it arrived at my house just 10 minutes after I did, giving me time to pour a nice glass of wine and feed my rabbit before tucking in.

The rice was perfectly cooked, the curry delicious and the naan bread perfectly formed - the only thing I wasn't so keen on was the fish balls that I accidentally ordered when going over a bump on the journey home (something Apple should really have considered when designing the iPhone touch screen) however they were lovingly garnished with a sort of carrot spaghetti which my rabbit thoroughly enjoyed, we will definitely both be ordering from Saffron again."
