Not only they have plenty to serve, covering different regions on India, but they also taste good. I am yet to come across a place that serves pau bhaji in London , the way I like it!!
The only person behind the counter was extremely patient and helpful, going through all my questions about the menu.
However, for those who are health conscious, the menu is quite heavy on carbs.
I am a little disappointed on the chana batura. The chana was fantastic but the batura was more like poori than batura. The could not reproduce the soft spongy texture of batura.
The restaurant was squeaky clean, which is reassuring during lockdown and service was fast.
Will definitely visit again to try out the or Street foods on the menu!!
We ordered for the masala chai which was the only item on the menu worth a 3.5 star rating but it was a bit too watery for my taste.
The next item to arrive was the sev puri. The puris were not as crisp as I would have normally liked them to be. A couple of the puris were mushy.
The vegetable parathas were soft and stale. It felt as though the parathas were microwaved and tasted more like a roti stuffed with bhaaji from the pav bhaaji.
The last but not the least was the samosa which was promised to be a Punjabi samosa but was rather a patti samosa.
At the price point of this restaurant, I would have assumed that they would have satisfied my taste buds at the very least. I am surprised at the number of positive reviews this place has and would hope that the restaurant improves the food standard since I wanted them to be my go to restaurant. Alas, I will have to drive down to Wembley for good food. :(
