It's a great, cosy restaurant with some truly outstanding cuisine only 10 minutes walk from flat. Downside is booking enough in advance to get a table, usually between 2 & 4 pm is best for booking.

The most mouth watering Indian cuisine this side of the northern hemisphere. The only downside; The portions are large so a meal for 2 will give you breakfast the next day if you so wish ;)
