I haven't been to Govinda's for years & I was surprised how much the prices have gone up. The feast meal with drink & dessert is now $26.50, and the drink is pre-poured instead of helping yourself. The halva in the feast meal is placed on a section of the tray & just has a small squiggle of custard on top, instead of sitting in a dish of custard - this makes it a bit dry & much less enjoyable than I remember.
The rest of the meal was absolutely delicious, however, and considering the current state of prices elsewhere, it's still fair value.
My only complaints are the halva not having enough custard & the chanting sound track was a bit loud today. I've considered bringing my colleagues here, but I think the sound would make talking a bit difficult, and I also wonder if it might be a bit intrusive for people of other religions? It might not be that loud every day. I had the supreme feast meal (pictured), but I asked for an extra kofta - the standard meal only has 2.
