I had heard Dishoom was good and it was also recommended by our Uber driver. Dishoom has several locations in London. The one we visited was located at 4 Derry Street in Kensington.
Lamb Samosas--£5.20. Gujarati filo stuffed with minced lamb, onions and spices.
Okra Fries--£4.70. These were good. Nicely spiced.
Nalli Nihari Biryani--£18.90. This was the star of the meal. Tender shank of lamb layered with rice and caramelized onions then sealed beneath a pastry blanket. Enriched further with chicken liver, raita and nihari gravy. It was so good, I'm still dreaming about this dish.
Lamb Biryani--£11.90. This was not exciting after the Nalli Nihari.
House Black Daal--£6.50. This was a Dishoom signature dish and was cooked over 24 hours.
Chicken Ruby--£10.90. Tender chicken in a rich silky makhani (butter) sauce.
A Bowl of Greens--£3.90. Grilled broccoli, snow peas and kale tumbled with chili and lime.
Chicken Tikka Roomali Roll--£7.90. Spicy charred chicken, lavish salad and tomato chili jam in "handkerchief" bread. This wasn't that exciting and I would skip next time.
Plain naan--£2.90. This was good. Just the right amount of chewiness.
