Best Curry house in London

Other suggestions here

I want to try the Parsee, in Highgate, some time.

takeaways: hillmarton tandoori on hillmarton road has the crappest storefront but their curry is addictive.

This thread never really got going....

I've pretty much given up on Brick Lane, and I'm not willing to travel to Southall, so I'm usually visiting Drummond Street. The Shah Tandoori is the current fave.

The local one in Vauxhall, The Coriander, isn't bad at all but is quite expensive.

Indian Zing in Hammersmith. Best Indian food I have ever had in my life.

last time i went to Brick Lane was the Standard Balti House - very good if not anything out of the ordinary.

maybe you should venture down to Tooting, Bob.

i had one curry at brick lane, it was meant to be a madras but they forgot to put any spice in whatsoever so it was just like bits of chicken in a tomatoe sauce. pretty rank.

coriander off lewisham way is nice. my delight is two sisters in nunhead, though it is takeaway only.

whereabouts in vauxhall is that bob?

Kennington Lane, at Vauxhall Station end.

Used to see Steve Severin there sometimes when he was producing the Readers Wifes, who dj at Duckie nearby.

"Whereabouts in Vauxhall is that bob?" sounds like a failed catchphrase from a bygone era.

cheers.. will check it out as it's close

xpost haha!

The one southern indian veggie curry place on Drummond St I've been to was excellent, but can't remember the name ;_;

Also southern but not veggie, Ragam on Cleveland St, just across from Charlotte St. Has been superb (Matthew Norman called it a 24 carat gem but last time we went the quality seemed to have slipped a bit.

stick a ) in there somewhere

Ragam seconded! There is a lot of love for Tayyab around here. It's in Whitechapel around the corner from the mosque.

Tayyab is great but generally southern Indian food beats northern Indian/Pakistani hands down. The answer to this used to be a *tiny* Goan cafe in Woolwich but nowadays I'd plump for Rasa in Stoke Newington.
