Hi guys,

We are very excited to announce that KOKUM, located on 58-60 east dulwich road is set to open its doors soon!

KOKUM is a contemporary Indian restaurant and bar that serves classic Indian dishes with bold and punchy flavours but with more unusual ingredients than is the norm. It is the brainchild of the co-founders of Michelin-rated restaurants, Black Salt and Dastaan.

Here’s a teaser of some of our dishes…

Do you have a menu you can share on here? It will be great to have something a bit different which is nearer than Ganapati!

Hi Sue, we are in the process of food trials/ finalising the menus. As soon as we have our finalised menus, I’ll post them on the forum 🙂

You've broken the one exclamation mark limit !!!!!!!

I'll look forward to seeing what this authentic Indian food is.  Hopefully not chicken tikka masala (Scottish) or balti (Birmingham).

Nearest I have seen is the India Club in the Strand, which in days gone by was close to the Indian High Commission.

We are opening KOKUM tomorrow, Saturday & Sunday for walk ins only. We are very short staffed so trying to manage bookings the next few days by only taking walk ins. 

Reservations are available via the website from next Wednesday onwards.

Anyone else eaten here since it opened? The menu looks really great. I am looking for somewhere for my birthday meal but as someone of Sri Lankan origin I am quite fussy about where I eat curry (when I'm not making it at home!)

I'm planning to try the South Indian and Sri Lankan places near St George's hospital in Tootling.  West Croydon is also a good place. I expect that these places are more down to earth than Kokum - that's not a criticism but a fact.

Barbur sets the standard for high end in this area, although now very much fusion.  I've only once eaten at the Cinemmon club, fortunately I was being treated £££££.

Happy to try your home cooked food, I shared some of my Indian recipes on EDF during lock down.

As with the majority of Indians I do not eat meat.  The veggy restaurant that the Cheeseblock people ran was great but closed years ago.

Ate there on Saturday evening. Really lovely meal and definitely a million miles from your typical Indian restaurant.

FOH staff talked us through the menu which was really helpful. Even the chef came out and had quick chat late-on. 

A welcome addition to the neighbourhood.

    • I think it is less easy/ more expensive to fence off the Common, as opposed to the nicer parts, which is why our nicer parts are hawked off to Gala. Why should we have access to nicer parts of our park in summer when we might most like to have access if it can be monetised. It's ironic really that this council is so Trumpy. 
    • Niko is my go to plumber - he's always friendly, reliable and very good at thinking outside the box for finding solutions. He did have his phone stolen recently and was on a brick phone, so if you tried Whatsapping him, he won't have received it yet but he should have a new smart phone by now. He always gets back to you promptly and is full of good advice and always up for a chat 🙂 Niko - 07818 607583 -  highly recommended!
    • Another recommendation for Niko. He arrived in 10 minutes of me calling him and successfully fixed my annoying dripping tap! He did mention a problem with his phone, think it was stolen, but he is now available on 07818 607583 
    • Well, what a huge surprise! So, while the council digs up local footpaths to plant trees and 'green' the roads, it simultaneously offers up our parkland to private hire for a further extended period of annual damage.  It is hard to see from the map, but it looks as though the footpath that was formerly available to walk along the length of the event site of old will now also be partially used up by the new footprint, it looks like it will be partly roped off? I love how the final council report advise that 'while locals will be unable to use this nicer part of the park for a month ( and actually much of summer as it all gets churned up and has to be reseeded) that this is fine as they can just use the Common instead.    It feels wrong that the nicer part of the park is given over for festival use. I do not buy that, as has been stated, the Common is just not big enough for the Gala event.
