    Enjoyable video Darren, been here twice before!
    Was only shown on Homes Under the Hammer a month ago when someone bought a house on auction in this part of London!
    When they showed the street it was in.....
    You also forgot to say about the 12% service charge they also add on.

    That certainly does look “off the charts.” I thought the first lot of food was your whole meal and was surprised there was no rice. When the next lot came out I couldn’t believe it and lamb too, my absolute favourite!

    Nice elegant looking restaurant, tables could have been spaced out a bit more. I'm old enough to remember "Barney Rubble" 😂For me, the samosa didn't have the crunch 😢The rest were a fine spread. I'm not sure how you ate your meal with such a wide smile on your face 😊When you met the chef, the double take, made me blink😉The chef was a very well spoken man who new his craft. And was rightly proud of himself. A true creative artist. Darren, your honesty is a becon. Telling us of the extra things you were given. Brilliant. Allan&Family

  • @rogerparkin843

    That looks delicious. I am looking forward to your Thailand adventure. I live in Northern Thailand not that far from the Mekong River. So I am hoping your going to get out of the smoke into the real Thailand and taste the food. I love Indian food and tomorrow i am cooking our family a chicken byriani. Great channel you have. I was originally from London.

    My God, that really looked a treat, Darren. That lamb , you could see just how tender it was when you held it up closer to the camera.
    Fresh spices and fresh ingredients meticulously prepared but all done with an added unique take. Whats not to like?
    That whole selection just looked so good. Melt-in-your-mouth goodness.
    I will take that. This meal was clearly off the charts Darren. A lovely find.
    You have great personal video editing skills, Darren. I thought your personal selection of Asian music was pleasantly soothing and congenial
    All in all, another very good video.
    Thank you,.

    Most Indian themed restaurants rarely get seekh kebabs right and we had that here too as it was way too thick. Thin and slender is the way to go as it cooks differently. You get more of that charred taste going right through the meat if it's pressed onto the skewer thinly. You also get a better balance of flavour and mouthfeel. It's these details that make all the difference. Good review as always DJ 👍🏽

    Look at the menu, Jalfrezy or Jalfrezi? 😂 The food looked great, That starter platter alone would have stuffed me Darren! I can't believe you ate all that! I would have to be winched out by a crane after eating that lot! Good effort! 🤣BTW jalfrezi is my favourite Indian dish with a Dhansak, Biriyani or Bhuna a close 2nd! 👌It's great to find an Indian restaurant like this that you can go out out to (LoL) again and again and get a decent curry rather than trying out new places and getting a naff curry for your hard earned 👍
