Who was it, then? Don't keep us all in suspense 😂

It was Millennium.    Had a few problems with the order as some incorrect items were delivered but they did remedy the problem by eventually sending the correct items.  Glad I hadn’t tipped.  In case anyone is interested in my opinion, the tarka dal was extremely runny, and the stuffed paratha was greasy in an unpleasant way.  The onion bhajis were tiny but tasted OK.  The sag paneer tasted very minty which wasn’t expected.  
 

I still like Spices in Nunhead especially for value for money, but wanted to try a few other places.

That's a shame.

I haven't used them for a long time as I haven't had a delivery for a long time, but I always found their food and service  reliably good.

Perhaps I have unusual standards but receiving samosas with meat filling when vegetable ones had been ordered was unpleasant.

Perhaps they have new staff and/or a new chef (given your comments about the other food you got).

Not that that is any excuse, obviously.

As the meat samosa will be more expensive (they normally seem to be) than the veggie option - so long as you were not charged for the meat samosa then it does seem an honest (if annoying) mistake. Indeed it is plausible that another punter was irked to receive veggie samosas in place of the meat ones they had ordered!

They have three types of samosa, vegetable, chicken and lamb. They are all the same price £2.90.  To bite into a meat samosa when you don’t eat meat is foul.   It’s not possible to place a delivery order on their portal, you have to call. However a collection order can be placed.  This seems odd.

Anyone living in the area who likes curry needs to try a delivery from two sisters in Nunhead -  it’s leagues above most. 

Constantly searching for similar quality Chinese delivery if anyone has any suggestions 

Hi

Who are these two sisters? Do they provide a catering service? Am looking for caterers of Indian cuisine for a dinner party. Thnks.

In my experience they're all crap but then I'm vegetarian so I get mine delivered from Khan's in Brixton.

Their vegetarian dishes are very good.

For delivery, tried Khan’s a couple of weeks ago. They offer a discount if you spend £25 or more.  I only ordered vegetarian food. Complimentary poppadoms were provided but don’t know if that it is normal as it was my first order. The tarka dal was very good.   The portions are large but they are more expensive. The order came in under the 60 minutes that was promised. I thought the naan that was ordered was very average, like they’d been hanging around for a few hours.  Some restaurants are better at baking than others.  I would try them again to see what the other vegetarian dishes are like, such as the pumpkin ones.  Andy P, what are your favourite dishes there?  I did have an aubergine, tomatoand potato one which was good.

      I am keeping my fingers crossed the next few days are not so loud. I honestly think it is the private, back garden displays that are most problematic as, in general, there is no way of knowing when and where they might happen. For those letting off a few bangers in the garden I get it is tempting to think what's the harm in a few minutes of 'fun', but it is the absolute randomness of sudden bangs that can do irreparable damage to people and animals. With organised events that are well advertised there is some forewarning at least, and the hope is that organisers of such events can be persuaded to adopt and make a virtue of using only low noise displays in future.

      Oh David / Is David Lammy Toast?

      There was an excellent discussion on Newscast last night between the BBC Political Editor, the director of the IFS and the director of More In Common - all highly intelligent people with no party political agenda and far more across their briefs than any minister I've seen in years. The consensus was that Labour are so unpopular and untrusted by the electorate already, as are the Conservatives, that breaking the manifesto pledge on income tax wouldn't drive their approval ratings any lower, so they should, and I quote, 'Roll The Dice', hope for the best and see where we are in a couple of years time. As a strategy, i don't know whether I find that quite worrying or just an honest appraisal of what most governments actually do in practice.

      They are a third of the way through their term Earl. It's no good blaming other people anymore. They only have three years left to fix what is now their own mess. And its not just lies in the manifesto. There were lies at the last budget too, when they said that was it, they weren't coming back for more tax and more borrowing. They'd already blamed the increase in NIC taxes on what they claimed was a thorough investigation. They either knew everything then or they lied about that too .   They need to stop lying and start behaving. If they don't the next government won't be theirs, it will be led by Nigel Farage.  They have to turn it round rapidly. Blaming other people, telling lies and breaking promises isn't going to cut it any more.
