Review: Oriental Octopus

[Rating:3/5]
Naheed and I popped over for a quick lunch to the Oriental Octopus, Sector 16, NOIDA. Its in the Savoy Suites, which is connected to McDonalds (structurally).

We started with a Tom Kha soup, which was subtly flavored with ginger, lemon grass and green chilli. Nice. Next in line were dim sums, stuffed with black mushrooms and what the menu described as ‘Chinese Greens’. Nice again. Finally, we settled for the ‘Set Lunch’ which comes with rice or noodles, one veg or one non-vegetarian curry, some sautéd vegetables and a spring roll. The curry was *hot*. Only negative was that the noodles were quite common in appearance and flavor.

Lunch took us exactly an hour and was good.
