Huge menu! I didnt know what to go for.
Ranjana P.

Cheap, lots of variety. Well worth it! I cycled 13 miles from North London based on a recommendation.. to be honest I was bored and had nothing else to do. I was amazed by the variety of food that is on the menu and very pleased. The first thing I asked for for an egg roti and they had no more :-(, then I asked for a plain roti and they had no more :-(. My disappointment abated once I decided to order the mutton roll, Chicken kotthu roti, an aubergine curry and a faluda to drink. The mutton roll was slightly different to the ones I was used to. Normally the roll has a thicker crust but this was thinner. However it did have lots of spicy mutton and potato filling. It did fall apart as I ate but tasted great. I wish I had ordered some to take away for breakfast. Kotthu rotti is made from old hardened roti. Instead of throwing away the dried rotti they mix it with egg and spices and a meat or vegetables and put some curry to really spice it up. It is a must try and I would also order a portion of curry sauce to go with it. This is in case the roti is still dry. I loved the Chicken Kotthu and there was so much of it. The rotti was a bit dry so it was good to have the extra portion of curry to soak into it. I personally believe that there is better kotthu but this came very close. The aubergine curry was a bit too salty for my taste. It was also a bit too mashed up to even recognize it was a aubergine. I am used to actually seeing some aubergine rather than it being in a paste form. I loved the faluda which is made from milk and rosewater topped with ice cream, jelly and some other tasty bits at the bottom. I was relieved to have this as the spicy food started to burn me up. The place is not a palace and the price fits the environment. The staff are friendly but a bit stand offish. I think being polite and friendly always brings the best in most people and so it did here. All this cost about £12! A ride well worth it. However it was a difficult ride back with the spices burning my stomach.

So tasty

See all

Even when I was living North of the river, I would travel here specially so I can get my hands on my favourite mutton rolls and egg roti.
