As much as I'm a lover of trying anywhere new and different that pops up in Edinburgh, when you've lived somewhere for a while, and intend to do so for a while longer, you need reliable establishments that you know you can go back to time and time again and get consistently delicious food.
When it comes to the takeaway vote, I always support the Indian food option. Back in the day, I used to work at an Indian restaurant, which is where my real education on what constitutes good Indian food came from. The chefs tested out an elaborate range of flavours on me, building my spice tolerance up week by week, and sealing my appreciation for Indian cuisine, which is why the food at Jaipur of India is always such a delight to sample.
The menu here covers most bases, so I can't imagine anyone would ever be stuck for an option, even if high spice isn't your thing. The Rogan Josh here is fantastic, and suits my medium tastes in hotness perfectly, but there is a huge range of different dishes available. Reasonable prices, plus happy staff and speedy delivery, equals my regular Saturday night food requests. read more
