Did you know that most of the dishes we call 'Indian' (Balti, Jalfrezi etc.) in fact come from Bangladesh? Head down to this Banglatown favourite to taste these dishes cooked with authentic style. Wonderful. This is one of Banglatown’s flagship restaurants. Most of the cuisine that the English associate with ‘Indian Restaurants’ is in fact produced by Bangladeshis, and a visit to this place will give an authentic and unforgettable taste of dishes like balti and jalfrezi as they were meant to be. It’s cheap and well run, with good, fast service but proper freshly-cooked dishes. It’s also in the heart of London’s most vibrant market at weekends.
