Who am I to think I can write a restaurant review? Well, they’re all just one person’s opinion. Right?  Sometimes when I read Karl Well’s restaurant reviews, I take them with a grain of salt. What chef, owner, waiter is not going to make sure Karl’s dining experience is not the best that the restaurant has on offer? I, on the other hand, mean nothing to these people. Therefore I get to experience the food and service (and sometimes blog about them) as they really are.  

Over the past couple of years I have reviewed a few local restaurants on Yelp. Here are my Gypsy Tea Room, Magic Wok and Sprout reviews.

Hmm Hmmm Curry

 

I think it’s time I told people about International Flavors, a little restaurant at the base of Signal Hill. They have a limited but tasty selection of curries. You have a choice of a small or large chicken, lamb or vegetarian curry. These are accompanied by three delicious dals which vary day to day.  My mouth is watering just writing about it!

The owner is a warm, friendly lady; the restaurant is a plain, unpretentious space.  It’s comfortable there. As this is a review, I should warn you that you’re not guaranteed to get an amazingly tasty curry every day.  Sometimes it’s on the bland side, but that’s just part of the experience. Who eats there? Well, all kinds of different people. But since its downtown you do get a good cross section of the arts community. Prices are excellent; a large curry will run you about $10.00.

Try it. If you don’t like it the first time, try it again. It grows on you, believe me.

You're thinking about food ... but if by chance you're also interested in buying, selling or investing in St. John's real estate contact me. I would be happy to help.
