Anybody get any recommendations for a good Indian restaurant in central London? Doesnt have to be expensive or posh - but it must be halal as the person whose birthday we are celebrating is Muslim.


Brick Lane has been mooted, but my experience in Brick Lane has been rather disappointing.


Ta.


Namaste.

Went to Cafe Lazeez not so long back (the one in Kensington - although there is one in Soho as well) and can definitely recommend it. Not cheap by 'curry house' standards but then the food is something quite different. If you're one for complaining if a 'curry' costs you more than a tenner (some people are) then it's not for you!


Brick Lane is to be avoided at all costs, unless you like (mostly) identikit curries for tourists and having your arm pulled every time you pass the door of each restaurant. That said, there is a MIRCH MASALA on Commercial Road, where the food will be fabulous and the bill will be small!

Best Indian Restaurent I've been to in Central london is RASA in charlotte street. Vegetarian and fish instead of Halal but should be ok? Anyway best tasting food I have had. Traditional Kerala food. Sat at the table salivating and trying to decide what to eat for 30 minutes...Staff lovely and mid range pricing. 5 hungry people with starters, main, two bottles of good red and dessert ?160.

    • "Dedicated to the purpose-built student accommodation sector. PBSA News is the leading source of news, insights and analysis for professionals, investors and stakeholders in the purpose-built student accommodation sector. With a mission to provide the latest information and foster collaboration within the rental community."   The PBSA take on the strength of the market seems much more upbeat than does the govt. research paper. Perhaps they are right or perhaps it is in their interests to talk up the market?    
    • I think a lot of people here are just speculating about empty student accommodation properties. Student accommodation developments are very popular because they provide really great rates of return for the owner. A large student accommodation owner, Unite Students, saw 97.5% occupancy across their assets in the 2024/2025 academic year. They have many properties in London; https://pbsanews.co.uk/2024/10/09/unite-students-reports-record-occupancy-rates-in-q3-2024-update/ Here's a bit from CBRE on PBSA properties in London from May 2024: https://www.cbre.co.uk/press-releases/london-plan-policy-fails-to-deliver-affordable-student-accommodation - "According to new research by CBRE and QX Global, the gap between demand for PBSA and available supply in London currently stands at 100,000 – 105,000 full-time students, underscoring how demand for student housing has outpaced supply." - The development pipeline in London isn't keeping up with the demand. Ultimately this development wouldn't be built if student accommodation wasn't in demand. It's proximity to the station means that a student could get to any number of universities easily in a short span of time. Is it ideal? No. Would more affordable housing be better? Yes. Is speculating about channel migrants occupying the space uninformed idiocy? Absolutely.
