Curry on Lordship Lane

You're well catered-for then Foxy. This time it's me at home with the pot-roast brisket, cooking my own.


I have to put up with them from time to time when a group dictates - bring on the 'Exquisite flavours! Delicately spiced! Regional specialities! And so on - but they're all the bloody same on LL, plus or minus 5%.


The first restauranteur to offer a superior alternative down that way is going to rake it in!

If Ganapati was to open a second branch, on LL, I reckon it would do very well.


But they've probably got their hands full with their Holly Grove branch and the new (ish) takeaway.


To the best of my knowledge it's the only place round here doing Indian food which really stands out (though its prices reflect that).


The others are all much of a muchness, as you say.

Yes Ganapati is obviously a cut about the bog standard LL curry houses. But I'm not convinced Ganapati is that expensive.. it's more that the crap places are really, really cheap.

    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
