Totally agree Medley... Omrith when it opened was consistently fantastic in every sense for the first year or so, and then it went through a bumpy patch and managed to rebound. We ate there recently and it was very good. The makeover it had last year did it the world of good.


I do have to say that the takeaway I had from there a while back was nothing like the in-dining version... Is it just me or have other people experienced that?

OK, it's not LL but they do deliver to East Dulwich - Indian Dining Club isn't just the best Indian in the area, it's the best I've had in London - counting all the Brick Lane restaurants, Painted Heron, Cinnamon Club etc. They do a good balance of more modern/adventurous dishes with old favourites. Also, we've found that if it's not on the menu, they can often do it if you ask. If you fancy the walk, the restaurant is lovely too.

I also like Dulwich Tandoori and always come away stuffed and happy.


A little further away, Babur in Honor Oak Park is an absolute must and one of the best curry houses in the UK.


i've had a few curries in Brick Lane, and always wanted to enjoy them, but always been disappointed and left feeling ripped-off, with small portions, high prices, etc which is a real shame.

We went to Jaflong (next to the Sea Cow) the Friday before last, it was lovely to see it so full :-)


we had a fabulous meal, the food was excellent. The relishes they serve with the poppadoms are fabulous, they have a sweet coconutty one, not sure what it contains (it's probably not even coconut!!) but it's pretty fab if a little too moreish!


I had tandoori chicken which was done really well, it's quite easy to get that dish too dry but it wasn't.


The staff were very attentive and made us feel at ease so we didn't feel like we needed to rush out and just had a lovely laid-back tasty meal and left feeling very happy.


lovely place, highly recommended :-)

ha! yeah perhaps, it was a Friday after all so perhaps they had their best cooks on board ;-)

Apology accepted, no I don't work for them and no I wasn't joking.


To be fair I haven't sampled any other curry in East Dulwich but found Bombay bicycle's very good. Some friends of mine live near brick lane and also sampled their food and found it very good. I admit its not the cheapest but I will happily pay more so I don't wake up with a dodgy stomach the next day.

    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertises times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
