Many thanks for the 10 people who did meet up at the EDT and then on to the ED Tandoori.


The experience was so-so. The food seemed to take an age to be served, the place wasnt that full. The ever attentive Head waiter went off to deliver a meal at which point the staff seemed to lose interest. On his return the staff woke up and our main course was served at express speed.


I found the food bland. It was OK but that was about it.


Most of us has starters, we all had mains with rice, veg, etc and wine, beer and soft drinks, all of which came to ?20 a head. We were also offered a free drink at the end of the meal.


So, the welcome and price were good, the service could be improved and the food was OK.


The suggestion for the next meal is Sema Thai. How about Wednesday 23/9?

I will agree with the Chief Bhuna on this occasion.


Food certainly was a little on the bland side, although I had a Tikka Massala, not my usual fair I will admit, however I did expect a little more it. Can highly recommend it to anyone who hates any hint of any spice though. Its milder than a bolognese sauce!


Comments from others, I believe will follow, however I think the food can be described as average.


Cost wise, at ?20 a head, certainly isn't bad. Probably helps with numerous drivers drinking soft drinks!


Plenty of After Eight Mints after dinner along with a nice after dinner drink offered to us.


Extra marks are awarded to the Head Waiter who certainly went the extra mile to look after us, shame he had to leave the restaurant to make the delivery, otherwise I think service would have been better...


Many thanks to all. A good night nonetheless!

Lovely to see everyone on Monday.. however the evening was a bit let down by the terrible wait for the food...... I did enjoy my curry though - and have discovered chick peas aren't the evil thing I thought they were!

Sema Thai sounds great.... will look forward to that!

      It's not far from Lordship Lane if you cut down Ashbourne Grove/Melbourne Grove. Depends where you start from, I guess!

      I doubt if it was something special - it has been full a few times I've been recently and when I have been able to get a space I've been lucky and bagged the only one available. I think there are only around 15 general spaces. Others are for staff, blue badge holders or EVs. I guess in winter people are more likely to drive, it wouldn't take much to fill all the spaces with the different things going on at the surgery/pharmacy such as blood tests, picking up prescriptions. It's possible a lot of the cars are in and out in 15 mins, i've not monitored it closely. This morning with all spaces filled when I arrived there were a couple of cars loitering in the hope of a space becoming available. I didn't want to risk it. As has been said, you can drive in and out and be caught on camera and not get a ticket but I'm not sure what the grace period is, if there is one.  Like you, I don't think a significant number of people are parking there to go shopping - it's too far from Lordship Lane as I found out this morning when i had to run from LL to Tessa Jowell! i guess the car parking spaces just can't cope with the number of legit drivers using Tessa Jowell and if that's the case not a lot can be done about it.

      Wanted near Bellenden Road: firewood. If you have any spare or unwanted firewood (e.g. left by previous owners), please let me know. Thanks!

      I go there quite regularly (don't ask), on my own behalf and as a chauffeur for family. I have never noted people parking up, going in and then straight out again once registered. Some times of day (and some days) are much busier than others, as you might expect, especially during winter vaccination season.
