We went looking for the Chef House (an old Canberra favourite) and found Paprika there instead, an Asian restaurant with a Malaysian emphasis. Service was wonderful, possibly because we were the second table in there only. The food, whilst not mindblowingly good, was tasty, satisfying and good value for money, for 5 of us (and a couple of bottles of wine) the total bill was just over $100 and that included dessert.
We ordered the crispy pepper chicken in cream and mushroom sauce, sambal tofu and eggplant (my favourite dish), a regular chinese style chilli beef and a very good lamb and spinach curry. For desserts, a few had the banana fritters which received good murmurings. Another had the sago pudding with coconut cream which she found disappointing, mainly because she prefers sago warm. I had the sticky black rice and coconut cream pudding which, although not the best I've ever had, was still quite delicious and a nice way to end the meal without feeling over-stuffed.
Corkage was reasonable, $5 per bottle. The owners of this restaurant were very keen to please and provide us with a good dining experience.
