Amin

Yummy, Tandoori!
About a week ago, I visited an Indian restaurant called Amin. When I first walked in, the lighting was a deep flouresant blue, and the waiters glanced at my friends and I as they rushed off. The lights then turned to a soft yellow as we all sat down  at small tables topped with glasses and red napkins placed neatly inside. It was a small space, but I didn't feel cramped. The first dish that they brought out was Samosa. It looked like a hat made of pastry and smelled like chicken fingers. It tasted like a combination of spices, potatoes and pastry. It was okay, a three out of five stars in my opinion.Then we tried Pakora. It was a combination of veggies and fried pastry, like Samosa it was okay but nothing special. Also, periodically a waiter would come around and refill our glasses with water, which I found to be quite nice. Lastly, we were served Tandoori, a dish including spicy chicken and cabbage, which was probably the best meal. The flavors were fantastic and went perfectly with the Nann, (sweet bread) that they gave us.
Even though the man who refilled our glasses was quite nice, the waiters were kind of rude, for example; I thanked them as I was leaving and I was given no reply. Then I tried to ask a question about one of the dishes but they just walked off as I was asking the question. Overall, I would give this restaurant a three and a half out of five stars.
