Merry Christmas!

Our very best wishes to you all. We hope you all have a great time off.

Just a quick note to confirm that we’ll be closed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We’ll be back open at 5pm on Sunday.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

More Cheesecakes

Cheesecake offering now finalised. We can offer the Mango Cheesecake and the Ras Malai Cheesecake for $40 for a whole cheesecake. It’s the best present I can possibly think of! Well best non-alcoholic present that is.

We need a couple of days lead time for orders. You can contact us using the email link to the right or by telephone to place an order.

For Rachel and Evan and like-minded folks, it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that we could also offer the Chocolate Pudding but we’d have to negotiate.

Cheers,

Raj.

Cheesecakes

As you have been so kind about our desserts, We’re looking into the possibility of offering whole cheesecakes for sale for the holiday season. We should have an email link here soon (tomorrow) and we’ll be happy to take orders. We think there would be a lead time of a couple of days. It’s the ultimate Christmas gift!

Obviously this doesn’t apply to Rachel or Evan who steadfastly refuse any dessert which isn’t chocolate pudding but we have to draw the line somewhere.

Thanks,

Raj

ESB or not to Be?

Well yes it is a lame title I would agree. The most obvious thing and that’s all I could think of. Sometimes there’s just not enough time to be original.

Having said that, lame title aside, we have important news. We finally have a lovely fresh keg of Fuller’s ESB – so if you’ve been waiting for it, wait no more! Well that’s not strictly true – we have to finish off the last of the London Pride – there are only a few pints left. I did try to get Rob Crow (Attorney at Law) to finish the keg for me last night but he couldn’t manage more than two pints. I imagine we’ll be switching back to the ESB tonight. Personally I can’t wait. I think it’s utterly fantastic beer – and on nitro too!

Which is not to say that the other beers should be avoided. After all we also have Fuller’s London Porter, Trumer Pilsner and Bridgeport IPA.

Lamely,

Raj.

New Additions

Well finally!

The entire point of the tapas style menu was for us to be able to play around with the cuisine a little and to cycle dishes to and from the menu. With Indian food however it’s a bit of a production trying to add dishes – not least because the tolerances you have to work within are not the same as for other cuisines – a 10% variation in the amount of basil for example is not likely to be fatal to an Italian dish. 10% too much or too little cumin, or chilli, or mustard seed however can have a radical effect – and there’s that much variation within the spices anyway – plus the menu as it stands takes a lot of work every day.

That said, we’ve added a few dishes to the menu, including a couple of soups – a hearty winter tomato seafood broth, aloo gobi (potato and cauliflower soup), tandoor spiced grilled prawns with a fresh green herb dressing, pan-fried halibut and stir-fried turnip paji.

And we’re working on more.

Open!

Well we’re back open. Ready for those intrepid souls able to brave the weather. Hopefully you’ll be amongst them

Tuesday 8th.

Hello All,

I’m afraid the cold weather got the better of our heating system. We’re waiting for the engineers to come out – but as you can imagine, they’ve been inundated with calls. As a result the restaurant will have to stay closed today – Tuesday 8th Dec – but should be open again on Wednesday 9th.

Sincere apologies for any inconvenience.

Raj and Laura.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. We’ll be closed for the holiday so that we can celebrate in the appropriate manner. Our very best wishes to you all.

 

Back open!

And all is well.

Didn’t quite make it. Re-opening Friday at 5pm

Sorry, Sorry, Sorry, Sorry, Sorry.

We tried our best to get opened again in time for 5pm on Thursday but the concrete and dust from our recent construction spread much further than anticipated. Everything was covered and it took much longer to clean up than we would have liked.

We’ve spent the whole day cleaning up though so we’ll definitely be back up on Friday 23rd at 5pm for dinner.

Sorry for any inconvenience, but we’ll DEFINITELY be open on Friday.
