    A great find behind the very busy Edgware Road. A small, quaint basic restaurant, but the food was authentic. It was constantly busy, so I am presuming it is testimony to the quality of the food. When I arrived (5.20pm), the restaurant was not open (5.30pm opening). It was raining, and despite me standing outside getting wet, I was a little perturbed that they did not open the door and invite me in - I found that very strange!! Apart from that, the staff were very attentive and sometimes a little too eager to remove our plates, even though we had not finished. I do not like my hot food to be put on cold plates, a little aggravating, but something that should be addressed.

    This place was so overrated. Food was extremely bland, lacked seasoning and spice. Noodles were ok.The curry portion was tiny and presented in a deep plate and not nearly enough to finish off the rice or share. Had to dump Soy sauce on everything to give it flavour and the chilli oil wasn't mildly spicy. Poor value for money. We felt rushed and staff came in to clear a plate as soon as you pit your fork down. Would not return or recommend.
