The prince also helped out by answering the phone and booking a table for a customer, leading owner Meena Sharma to quip he could probably have a job as a front of house manager, according to remarks quoted by the BBC.
William and Kate are not the first royals to enjoy a spicy curry. Darren McGrady, who worked for 11 years as a private chef to the late Queen, Princess Diana, Prince William and Prince Harry, shared a recipe for a traditional English curry dating back to Queen Victoria on his YouTube channel.
He told his subscribers Queen Victoria loved curries and had two chefs at Buckingham Palace whose role was solely to make the dish for her.
Mr McGrady said Brits “didn’t get” curry when the dish first emerged because it was unusual at the time to mix so many different spices and flavours.
Indian spice traders created a milder mix to suit British tastes, including coriander, cumin and turmeric, which went on to become the staple, ready-mixed ingredient we know as curry powder.
The late Queen would also eat mild curries, according to the royal chef, including tartlets filled with coronation chicken, which was created for the banquet held after Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953.

Ingredients:
6 tbsp mayonnaise
2-3 tsp mild curry powder, to taste
½ tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp mango chutney
1-3 tbsp sultanas, or to taste
500g shredded cooked chicken
Method:
Step one: Mix the mayonnaise, curry powder, cinnamon, chutney and sultanas together and season with black pepper.
Step two: Add the shredded chicken and stir to coat in the sauce. Stir in 2 tbsp water to loosen if needed, then season and serve as desired.
