Advice on a curry house please
« on: »
AS a birthday treat the wife has bought me a tour of HQ on Saturday and an overnight in the Marriott. The only thing missing is a decent curry house within staggering distance. Any suggestions? Preferably somewhere spacious coz I aint a little lad:(

I would definitely recommend the Sheesh Mahal, which is about 50 yards further on from the police station in London Road

Panas is a great Nepalese in Central Twickenham heading out towards Richmond.  There are also a couple of good Indian restos on Church Street - opposite The Fox pub and not far from The Eel Pie both of which are worth a visit.

A year or so ago I went to Atithi -

(27 York St, Twickenham TW1 3JZ) which was good, but possibly a bit more expensive than the others I have been to in the area.

Also my favourite - excellent quality, although portions can be small if that bothers you.

I’m surprised nobody has mentioned the balti with popadom and a pint in the spoons for £9

Good choice.

I used to work round the back of the Sheesh Mahal.  The great smells at lunchtime made concentrating really hard.

Weird with the No Alcohol thing going on? Is that a common thing these days?

You can take your own, can't you?

It has been a long term feature of some of the more traditional Punjabi curry houses.  I think it's becoming more common.  I didn't realise the Sheesh was BYO now.  It wasn't in the past.
