Recommended Posts

We had an absolutely fantastic meal (delivered) from Omrith (in Forest Hill Road) last night


Really yummy food, big portions, quickly delivered, reasonable prices helped by a 15% Just Eat discount!


Much much better than any meal we have had from any Lordship Lane Indian restaurant.


Very strongly recommended. Now our go-to restaurant for Indian food!

I had the Kerala fish curry. Extremely tasty, big chunks of fish, good size portion.


I am mostly plant-based these days, but have had disappointing veggie main dishes from other Indian restaurants, so played safe. Next time I will try a veggie main.


I also had coconut rice, which was delicious, huge portion (had the rest the following day :) ) and it was very well cooked (as in expertly cooked, not overcooked!).


My partner had Lamb tikka jalfrezi which he really enjoyed, and cumin rice, ditto.


We both shared a Korai mutter paneer (the best mutter paneer I have had for years) and Dingri palak, a veggie side dish.


It came with free popadums and that minty yoghurt stuff, but I guess that's standard.


We will deffo get takeaways there again. Don't know about eating in as it's a bit of a trek from our neck of the woods (near North Cross Road) but we will investigate the quickest way to get there!

  • 5 weeks later...

Had another takeaway from Omrith tonight.


Sadly, although I ordered the Kerala Fish Curry which I enjoyed so much before, it was absolutely horrible and bore no resemblance to the dish I had before, or to the description on the menu.


Also the spices were raw.


I phoned the restaurant and was more or less just told they would "see me alright next time".


I asked if they had a new chef, and got no answer.


I complained to Just Eat, who apparently will "investigate". So I don't expect to hear anything more from them.


Very disappointed, and sorry I recommended them on here :(


The mutter paneer wasn't great either, and nor was the rice :(


Does anybody know if this is a permanent change of chef, or a temporary blip?

Must say have Used Omrith a few times Sit Down. Mostly with Curry Club in the past.

I have found the place very variable. Certainly not consistent.

But that can happen anywhere.


Did not want to say anything when Sue first recommended them as I had not been there for a while.


Had been thinking of paying them a visit. I tend to find Food and service can be better when You haven't

been somewhere for a while.


Foxy.

    • Taking this to the extremes, if Starmer steps down as PM, who would be best to step into the role? This could be different to who would put themselves forward as the better options may not come forward.  The grass may not be greener over the fence!
    • Looks like current Chinese spying fiasco is going to fester on further now that the White House has come down hard with  criticism. This follows on from the Chagos  debacle where the UK has committed to giving up these strategic islands whilst paying out £101 million per annum to lease them back from Mauritius ( a staunch China ally) for next 100 years. The other on-going festering sore is approval for the proposed huge new Chinese embassy at the old Royal Mint site close to tower Bridge. Despite objections from MI5, this massive development in inner London is likely to be approved as a goodwill "gift" to Xi when Starmer visits China later this year. In return, Xi will probably release Jimmy Lai from prison. It begs the question - just why do we kowtow to China?
