This website is great, the only thing I used to be able to order in was Pizza so excellent to have some more options.
Himalayas has excellent food, can highly recommend the kadhai Chicken Special. Comes with a small rice so you may want to order a extra one. Nan breads are all very nice, the vegetarian dishes with cottage cheese are great. Definitely one of the best Indian places in Christchurch.Have ordered twice in the last two weeks and will be ordering again soon. (Carl - October, 2009)
