What is the new twist?

ETA: And where is it opening?

[KidKruger]

How about something moderately authentic and not the usual predictable menu ?

Otherwise the headline is "typical Indian restaurant opens in East Dulwich. Again."

[Jeremy]

What part of India are you (and/or the chef) from? How about some local specialities? What do you eat at home? What do you look forward to eating whenever you return to your home town?

Give us the good stuff, drop the tikka massala and stuffed lemon sorbet, keep the menu simple... and you will have queues out of the door.

Except Indian Mischief failed miserably ....

But Ganapati has doubled....so perhaps just not vegetarian food.

I'd echo regional speciality. Look at the success of Silk Road in Camberwell as an example of a non-mainstream Chinese restaurant that has taken the previously unheralded Xinjiang cuisine to new heights.

Do that. But for wherever you're from in India. Unless you're from Bangladesh like many "Indian" restaurant workers/owners. In which case be honest and make me the best damn Bengal curries I've never come across before.

"In which case be honest and make me the best damn Bengal curries I've never come across"

Yep. I happened on a curry house in the Cotswolds a couple of years ago and we ordered a couple of curries off the Bengali section at the rear of the menu. Absolutely fantastic. When I asked why more 'Indian' curry houses don't do this the mgr suggested they're scared in case the unfamiliar dishes put people off. His retaurant was rammed on. Thursday.

How I pine for that restaurant to be in ED.

For me, it's be simple to decide where to eat if just one bloody curry house would stand-up the same way.

Oo yum that looks amazing. As students in Leeds, we regularly ate here hansasrestaurant.com amazing food, I have never found anywhere else in a similar league.

[KidKruger]

So we can guess all day long what food will be on menu, or Tony can tell us.

Hmmmm.. which will give most accurate picture of what to expect ?

Tony did ask for suggestions..

David Carnell Suggested Bengali food so I gave some Bengali dishes.

Tony said it would be Bangladeshi... So I gave a Bangladeshi favourite.

I'm only here to help..

I get the impression this may be Home cooked food delivered to your door.

Hi guys so sorry couldn't get to you guys as quick as I would of liked

Location will be revealed very soon!!!! (East dulwich)

Yes it would be Bangladeshi cuisine with a twist

Thanks for the comments guys!!!!!!!

[Jeremy]

Local Bangladeshi food is a good idea! I'd definitely try that. If the menu is the same old korma/jalfrezi/rogan etc then good luck, but we already have many places which do that style of food and we don't need another!

[MrBen]

I think Tony recognises a twist is needed if he's going to be any different from all the others. It's just he hasn't worked it out yet?
