Curry Express in Metrotown

Curry Express on Urbanspoon

I love Indian curry! and when I go to the mall, most often, I’d eat curry. Curry Express is located at many malls. The one at Metrotown is alright. Service is usually good. Portion is fair. Seats can be found most of the time, though depending on the cleaning rounds, you may find only dirty tables.

There are a variety of choices, but I always go for my favourite – butter chicken with rice. $5.60 Sure, it’s obviously not the best curry – but for fast food, I think it’s pretty decent.

In comparison to other Curry Express:

  • Do not eat at the one in International Village Mall (also known as Tinseltown mall). The food there is old (doesn’t take good – blah), small portions and although the food court is empty, it’s a bit depressing there.
  • The Oakridge Mall one is the best for food. The older woman is rude and terrible, but the girl who serves the dishes usually gives a lot on the plate.

Jimmy the Greek at Brentwood Mall

Jimmy the Greek Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - ZomatoAnother fast food court that thrives only because of the business workers in the area. The mall is small, and there isn’t much customers. But during lunch hour, the food court is usually packed.

I’ve eaten several of their dishes. There isn’t a lot of selection to choose from.
On this day, I wanted the Chicken Fillet, but it was sold out, so I ordered the Chicken Souvlaki instead. It was dry and hard. The potatoes were soggy. For $8.91, it is outrageously expensive. You could have so much better meal at Stephos for less.idearabbit_jimmygreek1

The older lady that seems to be the supervisor works there is a bit cheerful. The other girl looks like she’s working in a prison camp or something. She doesn’t look to healthy, nor will she ever give you a smile. She mumbles everything so if its your first time, you may never understand what she’s saying.They also charged me twice for a meal once, but were fast in returning the monetary value back onto my credit card even though it was a month later (when I checked my Visa statement).

Jimmy need to improve their food and service, or they should be kicked out.
