One of my favorite Indian, ahem Irani, restaurants in London is opening a new location at Carnaby Street. Dishoom is a classic reincarnation of Bombay Cafés, the elegant Iranian run cafés lining Bombay in the 1960’s.
In order to prep and train for the grand opening next week, Dishoom Carnaby is offering a soft launch until Tuesday October 13th with 50% off food. No bookings available, just in typical London fashion, come and queue up! But trust me, it’ll be worth whatever the wait.
For me, be sure to order: okra fries, chicken tikka, spicy lamb chops, black house daal, garlic naan. To drink: the house chai is delicious–warm and spicy. A bhang lassi is a must as well!
They will be closed all day on Wednesday October 14th with the official opening for breakfast on Thursday October 15th. Which, btw, Time Out London calls it one of the best breakfasts in the city.
