Younger sibling of Spice Village in Tooting, this lively canteen/takeaway also specialises in Indian/Pakistani cuisine & is geared up to cope with big numbers of hungry punters. Like its south
London sibling, it’s a bright, contemporary space with an expansive glass frontage, splashes of green colour, rows of bare tables & funky seats. The menu is dominated by grills & tandoori
specialities (lamb chops, tikkas, shami kebabs), but you can also get a host of biryanis, dhansaks, kormas, jalfrezis & other curry-house standbys; also don’t miss the best-selling masala fish
& other regional specials such as paya (goat’s feet curry) or haleem (a Lahori dish of lamb, cracked wheat & lentils). To drink, order salt or sweet lassi, falooda or peshwari qawa (mint
tea).
