Topic: Suggestions for a Curry in London?

I've never eaten the Raan but it does like very tasty.

I have my Australia Day Lamb (Raan) Roast (Tandoor) marinating already.  I'll let you know how it goes.

Hi Livo,

Which recipe did you use.

London.

[livo]

It's a combined average of about 6 different, but similar, recipes. I'll write up what I used tomorrow. It's pretty simple really but I imagine it will taste good. Yogurt, lemon juice, splash of malt vinegar, almond meal, onion, garlic and ginger, plus a few freshly ground spices. I also added a couple of my fresh green birdseye chilli.

Edit.
I'll make a new thread to avoid further derailment.

When I get off the train at Kings Cross, I go around the corner
to the old warehouse sheds and find Dishoom a modern themed BIR
apparently harking back to old Irani Cafes and food of Bombay.
Very different in flavours of the usual BIR, but good all the same.

Brick lane is a bit of a joke, with touts trying to grab the tourists
into their curry houses, really off putting and relentless. Worse than Chuggers.

London is such a huge area, spoilt for choice on eating out. every cuisine you can think of, and some.

Love it.

London.

thanks all for your comments.

Any suggestions for a good curry house in that kind of area? We will be staying in the Bromley area but have friends and relatives in that kind of area, so we're looking for somewhere with decent food and good communications.

When I used to live in Chislehurst (very close to Bromley) there was a good Indian restaurant at the North end of the town, but it is too long since I last visited Bromley to know if (a) it is still there, and (b) whether it is still any good.  I would be inclined to travel to Croydon (easily accessible from Bromley) and search there; it used to have a large number of Indian restaurants, including at least two Southern Indian (masala dosai, idli, bhel puri and so on).
