Hi Darren, just visited this place tonight off the back of your review whilst I’m in London and WOW! I’ve had a lot of curries in my life, but this one was the best, the taste was unreal, brilliant staff and reasonably priced. Thanks for the video id have never known about it! Off the charts!

From 1965 to 72 I was a tank soldier. 3 years was spent regimental recruiting with another one year for the Corps. During this time we had a Chieftain tank on a transporter with the two drivers along with us also a lot more kit for display etc. These two tank transporter drivers went to every Indian Restaurant they could find in every town and City we visited with a challenge to the proprietors that they could eat any curry put before them. They would order approx 6 chappatis each, get through as much they could then wrap the rest in the chappatis and eat them for breakfast FFS ! One night I happened to be in the same restaurant with them. I was the one who used to drive the tank on and off the transporter. One them challengeed me to finish his curry off, he didn't mind losing his breakfast. So I did. It was the hottest currey I'd ever had, but finished it off with surprising ease. The next morning I experienced the same heat as the curry exited as it did when it went in :) NEVER AGAIN PMSL :)

Great story Tony, the hardest part is always the day after....... when your body isn't used to it

Hello Darren another fantastic video there are so many Indian restaurants that are just average at the most but this looks like a really good one it's my wife's birthday in September and while I'm at work she looks after my Mother who has Alzheimer's so I want to take her somewhere special and she loves Indian food now that restaurant is only a 42 bus ride away from me so I might take her there my wife is also a subscriber to your channel so thank you and congratulations on getting over 6k subs

@@DarrenJohn It looked it. I love a good curry, may have to pay them a visit next time I'm up that way!

[@davidtemple5934]

Looked a classy establishment, and the choice offered of garlic chilli chicken is my go to curry. Only criticism being you did not say how much it cost, and for such a nice restaurant they could have had menu proofread ! What on earth are warps ?

[@DarrenJohn]

I don't usually mention prices on my channel - which is why I film the menu 👍

[@syedadeelhussain2691]

Oh, yes, have fond memories of British Asian Curries! I always tried Madras strength curry or Jalfrezi Balti, etc. Never went beyond that, because Phal and Vindaloo were way too hot and can damage your stomach if are an acidity-prone patient suffering from hyperreflux and/or nasal dripping caused by the rhinitis. But, yes, my favourites inside an Indian, Pakistani or Bengali curry joints have always been the following => 1. Lamb Biryani 2. Prawn bhuna 3. Grilled tandoori prawns 4. Saag with cottage cheese 5. Jalfrezi with any kind of meat 6. Mixed meat grill sometimes (but dont enjoy the medium rare or slightly less uncooked kebabs they sell at some of these joints). 7. Butter chicken 8. Garlic naan or Butter naan 9. Pappadoms with chutneys as starters 10. Maybe chapli kebabs which is the Pakistani variant of a hamburger prepared by the people of the North in KPK province (not many available in London, but, you find a lot in Birmingham, Coventry, Manchester and Bradford Pakistani Food Outlets) 11. Sometimes Rogan GOSH recipe with lamb meat 12. Kulfi (mango or pistachio flavours) as deserts 13. carrot halwa 14. Mango or strawberry lassi as my beverage. Beer gives me a lot of gas so I avoid drinking that with Brit Asian curries. Brings the food up and spoils the appetite. Let me know your thoughts, please. Thanks and happy eating ;)
