Tandoori Nights update for our dear customers !

[Tandoori nights dulw]

Hi East Dulwich forum, on behalf of my father Munir Hassan and the team at Tandoori nights a heartfelt thank you for the outporing of support,concern and love from all you wonderful loyal east dulwichers!

It has been a really difficult few months for my dad. After 25 years of uniterrupted trading on the Lane thia awful incident has seen the business closed for the last 3 months whilst we waited for the insurance company to agree the works. I am pleased and relieved in equal amounts to let you all know that the remidial works have begun and we hope to be back bigger and brighter than ever sometime towards the end of January.

I will update via this site regarding the progress of the works, and we can let you know what the plans are for the re-opening date. The builders are cracking on at a great pace and we really cant wait to get dad back to what he enjoys the most, serving you good people the food he loves ! If you see him on the deck please do stop and say hi, it means the world to him , and us . You guys are awesome !

Much Love

Tariq ( and Munir)

Hooray Tariq

We had heard indirectly from the cheese Block that you were coming back. All the best to you and your dad from the curry starved McIrvines!

[Storyvilletattoo]

Tariq this is such great news! We can't wait to see your Dad back where he belongs and we've missed guys so much. There will be a queue out the door when you reopen! Very best wishes, Clare and Nick x

Reading this update has made us very happy indeed. Thank you Tariq and much love to your father and all the staff members

Please let us know once the grand opening date is confirmed so that we can former an orderly queue of support!

This is the best news I've heard in a long time. The Tandoori Nights is without questions the best curry house on the lane and has been sorely missed.

I can't wait to tuck into my Gosht Kata Handi come February.

[TheCurryKingBrown]

The Tandoori Nights returns and so with it comes the restoration of my faith for high quality curry on the lane once more. Your father has created quite the curryhouse I must say, my friends and I look forward to seeing him and his STAFF at the TN.

This update has made me very happy, very happy indeed.

Thanks you Tariq.

A friend and I went for our regular Surma curry outing last night. It was disappointing and lots of things seemed to have slipped e.g. Completely empty apart from two hard of hearing elderly men next to us who bellowed about their bowels all night, a tv going in the background, the only 2 staff who talked over us and passed food over our conversation, they then opened the main front door so it was freezing and stared at us non stop from the counter around 10pm after the other 2 had left until we finally gave in and left. Tandoori here we come next time.

[DovertheRoad]

Nice update and best wishes to all at Tandoori Nights and good luck.

I went to Surma a few weeks back.. as Dulwich Tandoori and Memsaab were both rammed full. 21.00

I was The only customer in there. Food was stone cold on a cold plate. No food heaters were available.

I complained and got no appology. I did not finish my food. in fact I left most of it.

I suggested a complimentary Liquour might be appropriate. I was told if you spend ?20.00 you get a complimentary drink.

I said well I have just paid ?17.50 for food I could not eat.

I said look your restaurant is empty. Other restaurants are full. Why do you think that is.?

I was told by the Elderly Owner not to come back as he did not want MY Type in his restaurant.

I suggested to him not to be rude to me as I am never rude to Asian/Muslim people. and I am well liked and welcome

in all other Local Asian restaurants. I eat in them 3-4 times a week.

The Surma continues to be empty every night when other Indian outlets are full
