Ordering Strategy

It is strictly cash-only. The Special Thali is the best value and allows you to sample the daily curries along with their famous breads.

What to order

Safe first

Special Gujarati Thaali

A "very sumptuous meal for only £8," this platter is "very customisable" and captures the "homely and snug" essence of the restaurant's Indian canteen-style dining.

Hungry

Theplas

These "thin Gujarati flatbreads made with wheat flour, fenugreek and spices" are the most recommended item on the menu, with customers frequently buying them in stacks of a hundred.

Wildcard

Aubergine and Potato Curry

Consistently singled out as a highlight among the daily vegetable curries, this "meltingly good" and often "spicy" choice is a favorite for those customizing their thali.

Wildcard

Srikhand

A classic dessert of "sweetened hung yogurt flavoured with saffron, cardamom and pistachio" that serves as the perfect sweet finish to a thali.

What to skip

Skip
Frozen TheplasWhile the meal itself is a bargain, at 50p each, the frozen takeaway version is noted by critics as being "disproportionately expensive."

Good to know

The atmosphere is very casual—think stainless steel plates and canteen seating. It can get busy with local families, so expect a short wait.
