Why Is This INDIAN RESTAURANT Rated So HIGHLY?

[@GaryEats]

Hi everyone. Apologies for the longer video today, so much to review on this one. I will make a mental note to stop saying "naan bread" as well. In Yorkshire tomorrow, looking forward to it. Hope you enjoy the video!

If your going to Yorkshire, you need to go to mergatroyds in yeadon. Best fish and chips in the uk by a mile

Also, go ahead and call it naan bread - I give you permission on behalf of the asian community lol. Anyone who's that pedantic about language isn't worth bothering with.

Thank you. Oh my lord, have you got the story to that?

[@kleemusic546]

When I was a student, if someone called "The Curry" it was mandatory for all to go as one and eat. Obviously, after many drinks and boasts, a wager was set for anyone who could complete a Phaal.

[@geordiejones2]

Wow Gary and Mr Cameraman what can i say on this review. You really did hit a 10 out of 10 place, and with that pre booking of 30% off, you got a 5 star curry for two for £20 a head, NO ONE can criticise that. I must admit im a big Lamb man and so love Tandoori Lamb chops, and it appears you hit on some mouth watering ones here. I absolutely loved the presentation of the food, and those extra touches of the garnish on the top really show the place cares, also hot plates are such a must for myself, and you certainty got them. All fresh all local no artificial colours or preservatives, its a no brainer for me a defiant 10. Oh re the Phall curry, don't do it my friend, its more of a challenge than a nice food experience, and oh my goodness will you regret it the next day. I have been told some vindaloos are pleasant tasting, but even im not that brave. Chris.

[@GaryEats]

I think you're absolutely spot on Chris. It seems like a lot for one but easily two people could have had that. Glad you liked the video and I'm happy that like myself, you love a bit of lamb. Spot on, an easy 10. I am worried about the Phaal challenge and I appreciate you looking out for me! I like a Vindaloo. All the best mate and I hope you're well.

Looks as though it was an OMG moment. The main courses look epic - generous portions and your description of the flavours makes me want to book a flight back to the UK! I hope you took a lot home for later, as you mentioned. The bread and rice looked fantastic too. I am really impressed as you obviously were.

Clarified butter (Ghee) is great to fry a steak.

[@OuterSpaceOwl]

Just what I was going to comment with. Ghee, butter and lard are miles better than seed oils. I've kept my weight down much easier by swapping margarine with butter and I use ghee for cooking food too.

[@GaryEats]

That's really bizarre. I've been told by many Indian restaurant owners that it's bad for you which is why they don't use it. Thanks mate.

[@OuterSpaceOwl]

​@@GaryEatsThey're wrong, Gary. Butter and ghee have a higher smoke point than most oils so are less carcinogenic when used for cooking.

[@robbyclifford3536]

I have to agree, ghee is very good for you, along with dripping and lard. It is actually seed oils that are very bad for us, they become unstable in the process of trying to get the minuscule amount of oil from the seed, and that makes them extremely unhealthy for the body. On my Masters degree in health, one of our colleagues who had a farm, made his own ghee. When we tested our cholesterol, as part of our studies, his was the best out of all of us, and on more research, we all saw that animal fats are indeed the best for us. Sorry about the lesson, but I just thought I’d put my two penn’orth in 😂! I love your reviews by the way 😊

Actually this is 0% Indian and 100% Bangladeshi food, like most "Indian" restaurants in England ; ) It's known as BIR or British Indian Restaurant style. The chefs including this one are nearly always from Bangladesh. Travel to any other country in Europe where Indian people make the food, it's not as good, trust me.

[@CycleDaz]

A 9.5 to 10 score from me & a Gold Star Award. A lot of people, Talk about this place being fantastic. I have not been there yet. I noticed, You didn't have any desert! - The cameraman, Needs to help you out a bit more with all that food. Wearing that cream colour top, Was also very brave with all that food. I would have made a huge mess of it all. Those spicy food challenges can be painful. A Spicy Fish Curry next time ?. I think for any establishment that gets a score of 10 or a 9 & above & a gold star rating, You should do some behind the scenes 'Special' style of videos, Where you meet the chef & do some time in the kitchens, To see where the magic happens & showcase this in another video, If they are happy to allow it. I think the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. They also do 10% off for Takeway & Free Delivery if local. If you sign up to their newsletter, You can get 10% off the food bill, Which I think applies to dining in. I need to get out more & try thier fish curry, It is also spicy. Another visit back thier Gary...

The cameraman my son does help me out with the food and I’ve already done two hot curry challenges so I will give that a miss for awhile I think but I will try fish curry

Not sure about the Phaal challenge Gary - you’re a braver man than me! Congrats on 20k subscribers, richly deserved. I continue to enjoy your honest, down to earth reviews. Keep up the good work! If I might make a suggestion for your next Indian restaurant review (excluding the mad Phaal challenge of course), Black Salt in North Sheen is (in my humble opinion, and - perhaps more importantly! - that of my wife) truly excellent - quite possibly the best Indian food we’ve ever had in London. Strongly recommend it and would be interested to see your take on it. Anyway, congrats again on reaching 20k subscribers, and looking forward to all the reviews to come. Cheers.

Another fantastic show, like the other viewers posted. Love a curry popps & garlic naan favourite. Never done Phall utvdone Vindalloo xx

[@GaryEats]

Thank you and glad you liked it, I finally done the Phaal last month

[@johnstokes992]

Dear Gary, Love your reviews. Must have watched about 15 now. You are exceptionally fair, engaging and watchable. Don't change a thing. Very best, John

[@GaryEats]

Hi John. Really appreciate that mate and thanks for watching so many. Nothing will change - thank you. All the best to you.

[@colindarroch4022]

That was an excellent vlog. The meal looked exceptional from start to finish the lamb chops one of my favorites and the two mains looked so tasty. This is a most definite 10. Thanks Colin.

[@GaryEats]

Glad you enjoyed it Colin. Thank you mate!

[@fionacotter4287]

Gary, once again another great review. Although I winced at first at the prices of the curries, when you said the total could feed two, I was happy. Poppadoms looked fantastic as did the sauces. Never seen a poppadom curled like that! Food looked amazing and wow, do I want one of those lamb chops, even though it’s not even ten am! Hubby Joe would be in his element there!!!

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Fiona. Can only highly recommend!

[@marpop99]

These Indian reviews are killing me Gary. Would die for that feast right now. Great work.

[@GaryEats]

I'm sorry about that my friend.

[@finnnickells5548]

Gary, because of this review, my girlfriend and I are going to check this place out in the new year and can’t wait! I’ve been following your channel for a few months and I love your relaxed yet no nonsense approach. What I also admire is the realistic nature of how you approach every review in terms of value for money which I’m sure a lot of people who follow you can agree is invaluable at times like this. If you are ever in the Guildford area, I highly recommend and would love to hear your thoughts on a Spanish restaurant called La Casita. All the best Gary, and Merry Christmas to you and your family. 👍

[@GaryEats]

You’re very kind my friend - hope you have a wonderful time. The lamb chops are truly incredible. I will add it to my list. Have a wonderful Christmas 🎄

[@andymouse]

I love a Dhansak ! it's my yardstick I use in a new restaurant, I believe if they can make a good Danny then your off to a great start ! and my favourite bread is also the Peshwari Naan closely followed by Keema Naan. The Danny looked great with a good colour and the lentils looked like they were cooked out properly too, and to top it all your comment about not having rice with it is what I prefer as well. Historically speaking back in the day the rice used to come with it for free (still on about Danny's !) but that stopped in the mid nineties I think, and if you wanted breast of chicken you had to ask and it was 50p more ! I guess you remember all this too. Great review...cheers! Phall challenge Hmmm....yeah do it but have a bucket of yoghurt close by !!

[@GaryEats]

Indeed. I love a Dhansak as well Andy. You’re spot on my friend. I’ll note down the bit about Phaal.

[@jeffreyroberts7438]

Looked fantastic! All your reviews make the food so mouth watering to look at. You do the best reviews with a great smile on your face, good luck to you👍

[@GaryEats]

Glad you enjoyed it Jeffrey and thank you!

[@Ziggylyle]

That's amazing, everything natural, for me perfect, I have a few allergies. No Ghee, even better. Only problem Iive in the Republic😂. Wonderful looking food, pilau rice is best, naan bread, fab. This gal is a wimp, a Korma is fine for me, from M&S. You took us on a great journey again Gary. Great show. Worth every penny, you certainly enjoyed it. 10 out of 10, well deserved.

[@GaryEats]

Glad you enjoyed it my friend. All the best to you in the Republic, I will be over very soon.

[@Ziggylyle]

Looking forward to you coming over to the Republic, wonderful country as you well know. Coming home to youŕ own country, bet you can hardly wait. Very cold here just now, though at least it's not raining.

[@GaryEats]

Freezing here as well mate, that won't change. Looking forward to it!

[@waynekerr7838]

congratulations on 20K subs Gary ! and a great review as usual.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you so much 😀

[@stevo2828]

I'm starving now and really fancy a ruby ! Thanks again for a great review !

[@GaryEats]

Any time! Get one today!

[@paulbabb4838]

Great review Gary, One of my Favourite Indians have used it for the last 15 years and the last visit was 3 weeks ago, Food is always excellent, and the 30% discount brings the prices down to reasonable levels, you ate at a quiet time as all tables are full at busier periods, Must try those lamb chops next visit, love the Indian Rooms.

[@GaryEats]

I really think it’s very good, Paul especially the lamb chops

[@JohnDoe-nt1sv]

Fantastic video Gary. Another Indian restaurant for you to check out would be Dhaba @49 in Maida Vale. Fantastic Indian food and congratulations on the 20k subs!

[@GaryEats]

I will check it out John. Thank you mate.

[@mohammedauzer3373]

Hi Gary. Next time you get Lamb Chops from an Indian Restaurant just grab it from the bone and tuck in. No knife or fork required. The spices and the bit of meat on the bone are absolutely beautiful. 👍

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Mohammed. I will do!

[@mohammedauzer3373]

@@GaryEats 👍

[@paulbutler6112]

You must try Tayyabs in Whitechapel - queues outside and the best tandoori mixed grill! Great review again! Yum!

[@GaryEats]

I will be definitely going in the future as lot’s of people have recommended, thank you for you’re kind comment Paul 👍

[@stephenalderman2124]

Thanks Gary . I live a few miles away and I have been looking for a good Indian restaurant for years. I can’t eat gluten or dairy, however for some reason I’m ok with cooked yogurt. I’m going to check this out and I’m really optimistic. I really miss eating in an Indian restaurant with popadoms and music . Thanks again .

[@GaryEats]

Glad to help Stephen. Really hope you enjoy yourself mate.

[@scarlett918]

Another great classy review by yourself Gary. Your reviews really are a class apart from the regular reviewers. Not to knock any of them of course, but credit where its due, truly brilliant reviews. I've not been a fan of indian cuisine, but now i think it's because i have had some not so good Indian meals. I definitely thought i could sample this one, as it all looked simply superb. The lamb chops looked insanely delicious, and the dishes looked mouth watering. I'm not sure you should do the Phaal challenge, but i will watch with great interest if you do! 😊😊

[@GaryEats]

Huge praise and thank you Scarlett 😊

[@paulc1553]

Great video, Gary. Congratulations on 20K, mate. Best wishes, Paul xxx.

[@GaryEats]

Cheers Paul. All the best mate.

[@paulc1553]

Cheers, Gary. Appreciate it, mate xxx.

[@richardgibbs1168]

Another crackerjack of a review! regarding the challenge, I wouldn't mate, it'll cheapen your channel, you have a fantastic niche of honest, friendly and consistant videos that don't need "sexing" up, you just continue to be you, content is king, and you are indeed the KING OF CONTENT!!!! GM Rich

[@GaryEats]

Wow. Thanks Richard - I appreciate it!!

[@rationalbacon5872]

If they aren't cooking in ghee, what are they using? Would prefer ghee to seed oils.

[@edwardnotman1712]

Great videos Gary amazing all the places you visit and all your true comments

[@GaryEats]

Many thanks Edward!

[@kathycarlisle9642]

Gary I don't think we're the right audience for any variety of school yard "challenges". But love you sharing your insite into english food from all around the region. Regards and delicious menus! Kathy from outback Queensland Australia ❤

[@GaryEats]

I understand your point, Kathy, but I do try mix it up on the channel, kind regards and have a wonderful week ❤️

[@TJB147]

Terrific video! That price for London is incredible given that 30% discount. Food looked incredible

[@GaryEats]

Thank you!

[@Hugh248]

Great video review Gary, for today welcome to my neck of the woods. I'm in Sheffield. The review you have done for the Indian Room, it gives me incentive to want to go there and try there food for myself.

[@GaryEats]

Great stuff mate. In Yorkshire as we speak 😊

[@colinsuffolk9161]

Hi Gary good afternoon. yet another great view on Indian food, all of that I can certainly eat again, as I said before what you ordered that would certainly feed two will probably need also a doggy bag to take some home price you are in London. I think still was good value cheers mate your channel is the best reviewing food in my mind Colin from Loughborough 👍

[@GaryEats]

Thank you very much Colin

[@jenniferforest5400]

Really cheeky of you ordering the lamb❤ I’d love a spicy challenge 😮

[@GaryEats]

Very. Oh I'm worried!

[@jamezali786]

Great review always very transparent with all aspects of the review. Always humble with respect shown in every review a true gent! Look forward to more reviews a day of eating around London markets etc is order soon!

[@GaryEats]

I appreciate that! A Christmas Market review is coming!

[@davidcoleman5246]

Hi Gary, Great review as always, the food looked top class. This Phal challenge? A mate asked for a Phal and made the stupid comment "And make it hot" i think he cried for a week. Look forward to the next one, all the best to you and not forgetting your camera operator, who does a great job too.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you David and I'll pass on your kind words.

[@marklancaster6558]

Dhansak is always my go to at Indian restaurants. That looked a good one. And although I watched this at 7:30 this morning I wanted those chops for breakfast. They looked amazing. Great video as usual Gary.

[@GaryEats]

So good! Thanks mark 😊

[@Buddybrindle]

Gary, so glad I found your channel! I’ve watched lots of your reviews in the past month and enjoyed every one. Oh, please do the Phaal Curry challenge. That would be so much fun! I’ve lived in the States now for almost 50 years but have NEVER come across an Indian restaurant! Keep up the good work!

[@GaryEats]

Oh but I'm worried!

[@jerrygeorgopolis8015]

Gary, Looks absolutely delicious ! I would of ordered more roasted lamb chop, and Naam bread for my meal ! I have tried to get myself adjusted to the hot spices, but can't seem to stop my face from turning red, my eyes watering and wishing for an Imperial gallon of water to put the fire out in my mouth !!! Enjoyed the video, all the best from the U.S.A.

[@GaryEats]

Sounds great! All the best to the US.

[@northlonguy]

Was cooking spag Bol tonight, but after watching this I’ve just ordered a curry takeaway! Your guna cost me a fortune at this rate!! I must remember to watch you post dinner!! Enjoy Yorkshire!

[@GaryEats]

Hope you enjoy it. I’m so sorry for hurting your wallet!

[@geordiejones2]

OMG my kids too.

[@martindunstan8043]

Evening Gary👍just wow, that looked sensational. The presentation standard of everything from the poppadoms and rice to the main dishes was amazing, the lamb cutlet arrangement was a piece of art and so well cooked. If it tasted as good as it looked(which seems to be the case) then it could only be a 10. Only slightly disappointed that there was no gilet or 'chips are chips' in this one🤣seriously that looked incredible, as for a phal challenge, I wouldn't fancy it but I'd definitely watch you eat it 🤣cheers mate✌️

[@GaryEats]

Evening Martin. Glad you loved it :) sorry for the lack of chips are chips and gilet. I'm here to entertain! lol.
