Curry and Jazz

Last Saturday night Dave, Nick and Jules joined a group of NEO students for an Indian curry dinner and a live jazz performance.

We ate dinner at a restaurant called Sundar Mahal that is close to Tenmaya. I had chicken curry with cheese nan. I don’t really like spicy food, so I ordered “child mild”. Some of the other people ordered very spicy curry, though.

After dinner, we all walked down the shopping arcade to Bird, one of Okayama’s oldest jazz bars. We watched a five-member band consisting of piano, trombone, saxophone, bass and drums. They played 2 sets, lasting about an hour each.

The band was great. All of the songs were original compositions. I had a fantastic time talking to everybody and listening to some great music.
