Guess it's different folks and all that. I love Ganapatti, but did have one bad meal in there, so bad nights can happen.


Totally agree with Tillie that the menu is limited, I don't like fish, which doesn't leave me with that many options, but the chicken dishes are awesome! I also love the garlic chutney they do with the popadoms, and they sell jars of it.


Still, it is in Peckham, and I wouldn't really put it in with all the curry houses, as it's not a curry house.


Not been to Omrith yet, think it's hard to name a winner, thing it was MikeP who said that it basically depends what you're ordering, all of them have their good dishes. Most recently I've enjoyed Curry Cabin.

Wasn't my intention to be patronising, just rather surprised anybody who liked Indian food could not rate Ganapati, sorry if I offended you :-$

Being Diwali yesterday, I celebrated with a home made Chicken and Prawn Curry.... have to say that when I am not cooking I don't use curry houses in the area (apart from Ganapati) as they just don't have the authentic flavours of India that I love when I visit the country...


Ganapati gets my vote every time for that simple fact.


Now after last nights curry does anyone have any chilled or frozen toilet rolls I can borrow in a hurry !!! :X


PS Also love the Banana Leaf in Croydon, but that is a bit far to go....

Has anyone used Spice Republic recently? We used to use them a lot as they had lots of tasty veggie quorn type things, but the last one we had was really quite poor so we haven't bothered since.


Have tried Omrith and it's very good although they did manage to give us the wrong delivery on two occassions - I always check it now before they leave.


Have recently started using Jaflong which we have been impressed with. I judge a lot of take-outs on the quality of their dhal and Jaflong's is tip top!

Ive eaten at The Mirash on numerous occasions and never been let down. I havent tried any other ED curry houses yet as Ive stuck to the one I know - loyalty and all that esp as ive never had any complaints. Its certainly a cut above some of those down Brick Lane.

The vegetable dansak and tandoori trout dishes are my favourite.

I like the Mirash - it is a very traditional curry house, probably now the last of the old-fashioned style Indian restaurants left in the area. There are no bad Indian restaurants in the area, its an issue of personal taste. The great thing is that you can try each one, guaranteed of an acceptable meal and then chose your own favourites.
Finally tried the Coriander. Crockery, cutlery and decor are very nice and so was the food, it wasn't very busy though for people eating in. I was surprised how many deliveries and takeaways they had going on though. We wondered to ourselves how come in ED there are no FEMALE indian waiters (or is it still waitresses nowadays) though. Pretty sure that would go down well. Good place.(tu)

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
