Other published opinions

The Age Cheap Eats 2008 "if it ain't broke . . .' could be Ganesh's mantra. Its menu has changed little over 11 years and, with triumphant versions of creamy kormas, fiery Madras curries and blistering vindaloos, why should it? A coconut-milk Goan fish curry zings with curry leaves and mustard seeds; goat comes on-the-bone in rich gravy; and a tandoori platter of tender spiced fish, chicken and lamb s top value"

The Age Cheap Eats 2007 "In Hinduism, Ganesh is sometimes Lord of the Hosts, so it's fitting that his representatives in Blackburn are so cheerful and accommodating. In a modern, spacious interior with only a smattering of Indian ornamentation, Ganesh dishes up mostly north Indian fare, from classic vindaloos and kormas to a lively goat curry."

The Age Cheap Eats 2006 This spick 'n' span Indian restaurant drags the genre from the flockwallpapered dark ages right into the present. Behind a feature window, the kitchen is abuzz with chefs creating dishes such as Goan prawn curry

The Age Cheap Eats 2005 "BLACKBURN has its own jewel of India, a crisp, clean and ordered place, coloured with a jangly Indian pop soundtrack and the aroma of tandoorcooked dishes."

The Age Cheap Eats 200 "Decor is definitely modern Mumbai CBD - contemporary carpet, clean, minimalist walls (OK, a few Indian pics) and courteous, efficient waiters. Work groups and families gather for Indian standards"
