"4/1/22 we three medium-age pescatarians decided on a laune for a quiet meal before place. we wanted something so decided against the excellent fera and chose a restaurant that we had eaten a Sunday midday buffet earlier (but I never looked it over when we came too late and they were dressing some years ago, my fault). when I was young, raised in the 70s, lee high road was famous as for its many Indian and bangladesch restaurants my first curry was a phal further along, thanks to my big brother who introduced me and bombay abe! we looked up their website menu and phoned at 7:30 to book for 9 o'clock and arrived on time to find a modern but completely empty restaurant (it was finally a Tuesday in covid times). the waiter saw us on our bare table with linen napkins and offered us the menu. because the place was empty (with a few food cure coming and going so that they have traded) had the waiter time to explain the menu. it was different and tempting and we chose a lot of directed who ask a few to be spicier than normal. we ordered the well-deserved beer (including a gurkha beer) as the wee were a little out of our league and I would not drink any wine with curry (we never made in indies! we chat a lot and the owner came to join us. we talked about ingredients (asafoetida etc.) and our travel in tamil nadu and chettinad cuisine. in the corner of the room was a picture of joanna lumley with the chef, who was over a sheck. they do much for the next love and serve the needy in lockdown as well as them. we did not notice paying a bit more than average for the dishes than result. we have rarely started, but they looked so tempting that we chose to share the scallops 8.50) and samosas 4.95). we have also chosen the most important courses and pages. in good time the appetizers came and they were beautifully presented with drizzled and lubricated sauces (how is the style today,) hot and tasty! the samosas were only two, but quite large, such a good introduction. the most important courses and sides came together and were also well presented and spided hot. the malabar fish 14.95) was very tasty and very well dimensioned. the thimi vegetable of my friend 10.95) he also found delicious, stuffed with fresh ingredients. the paneer lababdar 10.95 of our friend was also generous and tasty. we have tasted and agreed the dishes of others and our time to eat it, to enjoy every mouth. the accompanying mushroom rice 3.95,) tandoori roti 2.50,) dal makhani 5.50,) amilo piro brinjal 5.50) and say mushroom 5.50) were small portions but well flavored. quality not quantity! during the re-conversation with the owner I have brought to the expression that I thought that her next contest of the babur was a few miles away in honor oak, but there was a sweet one to the (more expensive but well established 30 years ago) two of us were there at his opening night baburs that none of us liked. we have preferred this restaurant in lee. Obviously more people in the house would have helped with the atmosphere and I am sure it is busy with people from blackheath. we ordered the bill and it came with an automatic 10% service fee (regardlessly) at 105. it is more than we pay in the rule, but it seems quite standard nowadays for three people. we left happy and sat at 10:35 o'clock."
