★★★★★I am 56 years young now and have been coming to Kleine Noord 50 since I was 19 for the best roti in the Netherlands. Back then Toko Anand, now the beautiful restaurant Spices. Yesterday was another winner: roti lamb extra special. So good!

★★★★★… for mains Chicken Rogan Josh and Lamb Karahi with garlic naan. The dishes live up to the restaurant's name. Very flavourfully spiced! The portions are quite big and generous with chicken or meat. The service is friendly, polite and attentive.

★★★★★Had the roti lamb special from Spices' takeaway today. … Tender stewed lamb, creamy potatoes, crunchy long beans in a curry sauce that is not too spicy. The crumbly roti completed the taste. Friendly service from the sons of the family. … 100% recommended
