For Mill Hill food lovers, Dawat Bar and Kitchen is a short drive away in Queensbury, with a menu that covers India’s grills, curries, street food and coastal cooking.
The tandoor is the best place to begin. Achari murgh tikka is marinated with pickling spices; malai murgh chops are milder and creamy; gilafi seekh kebab is minced lamb with peppers. For a bit of everything, the Mix Grill (£25.95) brings tikka, lamb chops, lamb kebab and chicken wings together.
Vegetarians have their own grills, including achari paneer tikka and tandoori mushrooms.
After the grills, choose curries from different parts of India: a Goan fish curry from the west coast, a lamb pepper fry, a methi chaman makhana for vegetarians, or the rogan josh. Finish the table with an Awadhi gosht biryani and plenty of breads.
