Cafe Nawaz

The highlight of our stay in London was finding this restaurant which was at a walkable distance from our hotel. We ended up having dinner every single day once we discovered this restaurant. We are vegetarians and enjoyed the Vegetarian Biriyani. It was hot, tasty, full of spices and vegetables - not the watered down version you find in places outside India. Authentic and yumm. This was a staple though we did try other options. For starters, I would recommend the Onion Bhajji. With the 4 pieces served, it is a value for money starter - crispy yet tender. Other notable mentions - Coriander rice, the chappatis, the baigan bharta and the sweet lassi. It would be amiss of me if I dont mention the service at this place. Once the order is placed, the food arrives at your table in no time, piping hot. The owner of the place, Mr Mohammad is always on hand engaging the customers and making everyone comfortable. Hats off to Mr Muhammad and his loyal crew of Abdullah and the chef for making us feel at home in London. I am back in India and am not sure if i will ever find such tasty veg biriyani ever again. :)
