Located right in the heart of the busiest stretch of the Royal Mile, Bay of Bengal is a long-established curry house serving predominantly North Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine. Modest in size, it does expand outdoors when the weather allows. Inside, the decor is simple and traditional featuring dark reds highlighted by Indian fabrics and artefacts. The menu ranges across a fairly wide selection of familiar curry dishes including tandoori specials and 'head chef's selection' which has garlic chilli chicken, lamb pasanda, kebabs and tikka massala choices. There's also a number of vegetarian options under the heading 'green cuisine', as well as a smattering of Thai curries. In addition to the budget meal available each evening (starting at £9.95 for three courses), two courses from the a la carte menu are likely to come in at around the £14-15 mark.

The quality and presentation of the food was excellent. Despite the resturant being packed, there were always staff available when we needed them.
