Delicious, but spicy!! - Edit
Mini and her team make fantastic Indian food - I tried a pakora special that came with lots of flavorful sauces, and a savory pastry with a creamy vegan cheese sauce. I do wish the heat was turned down a bit so I could taste more of the flavors, but all in all, the food is very fresh and delicious!

Good but suspicious af - Edit
My first time eating Samosa Shack was rly good - The tofu samosa I had was delicious and crispy and made me want to come back. My other orders were less exciting and made me suspicious.
Read moreIn the potato samosa, it looked like there was some kind of unnatural blue flecks or something, and last time I checked there aren't blue veg. SUS!! It also tasted a bit like the oil wasn't very fresh, like it had been sitting out or something. I cook a lot at home and love 2 fry so it set off some alarm bells.
Got a jar of green chutney as well and it ALSO HAD THE SUSPICIOUS BLUE! It had a kind of weird processed flavor as well, like there could have been a preservative added. Almost like a vanilla taste???
So yeah, appearances and first impressions were great but over time got very sus and noticed some red flags, at least for me
Sucks because I'd love some real authentic indian food in kingston
Pros: Good seasoning, Crispy, Indian Flavors
Cons: Weird blue flecks, Old oil taste, Preservatives??

Could it have been spirulina?

Hi @newty69 thanks for sharing your thoughts. We do use a touch of spirulina to keep the color of the chutney vibrant. Helps with oxidisation too.
Read moreAs for oil, not sure what you tasted. We change our oil on a weekly basis if we’re on a regular schedule. For heavier production weeks it’s done midweek.
Wish you’d reached out to us i.e. the business directly to clarify any of this. Thanks for giving us a try

Thanks for responding! I didn't see spirulina listed anywhere on the chutney label so that didn't come to mind actually! I think it's also an allergen FYI. Some ppl get really bad histamine reactions from it and it could hurt somebody with autoimmune problems pretty bad, I've heard. I don't think you need any extra color in chutney since it's already so green right?
