    Is that a good one .... have been seeking out a good Ethiopian in London for a long time only one I've noticed is the one near Oval Tube
    bit far from home but Ethiopian food is soooo delicious it's got to be worth a bash

    Well I don't have much to compare it to, but I've been to Zeret Kitchen three times and it's awesome. It's in a bit of a shabby estate, and you don't go there for the decor or the atmosphere, but the food is fantastic. I've been each time with about 10 people, and you can get the Zeret Special or something. Basically they just give you several enormous plates covered in that lemony bread thing, and then they plonk down all sorts of food on top, it's delicious. Would definitely recommend.

  • Master's Superfish, Waterloo Road. Best fried fish in town
    Old Justice, Bermondsey Wall. Unlimited Korean bbq for 16.99.

  • Jim you hit the nail on the head there. Absolutely the best Turkish eatery in London. Original food, great staff and always a good vibe. Don't leave it late though peeps. They queue out the door after 8pm

    My contribtions is Mangal Ocackbasi on Arcola Street, Dalston. Amazing Turkish charcoal grill, BYOB. Feast like kings for two is c.£30 (not including whatever booze you take). This place is all about the meat though - dunno how great the choice is for veggies.[/QUOTE]

    I concur. Place has expanded many fold over the years but still packs out.

    If you can't get in, Numara 19 Bos Cirrik, just round the corner on the high road, is almost as good.

  • Zeret Kitchen in Camberwell for Eritrean/Ethiopian food

    • RASA (number 55, not 56) on Stoke Newington Church Street, fantastic food for under £15 per head.
      -RASA Express, Euston Road opposite Euston Tower - two curries, rice, bread, pickle and dessert for £4 (vegetarian) or £4.50 (meat) - really good quality food as well
      -Le Pain du Jour, Goodge Street - big, well-filled baguettes from £1.80, cheap baked potatoes and soup as well
      -Maoz, 43 Old Compton Street, Soho - Delicious falafel in pitta for about £3.70, but with a sort of unlimited all-you-can-eat salad bar which they let you take the piss with. You just eat the filling from your pitta, fill it up again, take it back, repeat until bursting.
      -Taza, Bayswater - amazing falafel for about £3, just don't eat it standing up or you'll be wearing tahini
      -The King of Falafel, Judd St/Tavistock place - I like falafel, what can I say. This place is fantastic though, their 'moroccan bread' is a bit more expensive but stuffed with tomato or spinach and wrapped round really good falafel and salad. Best halloumi I've tasted as well
      -Little Japan, South Kensington - tiny cafe, huge bentoes for about £5, cheap for a massive lunch
      -Yoshino, Picadilly - must be the cheapest sushi in London. Shrink-wrapped in plastic but really good. £2.50 for a vegetarian lunch box
  • Noodle King on Bethnal Green Road

  • there is an italian restaurant which os offering happy hours between 3-8pm during the weekdays on upper street, close to keston lodge
    starter + main + dessert = 8.90
    main + one of the mentioned = 7.90
    will update with the name and accurate specs today

  • Noodle Time, Greenwich, fat eats for a few quid.

  • Mama Pho's and Cafe East - essentially the same place and handily close if you can't get a table in one.

    Don't believe the Viet hype about Kingsland Road until you've hit these two se16 gems

  • The Kingsland Road Viets are far inferior to their Mare street cousins. Haven't tried the bermondsey ones yet though

  • Love the beef-pipes (??) in Song Que, unfortunately they're served with a pound of raw veg, a pepper and carrot, wtf?

  • beef pipes ... lol

  • njera ! with the feeling of a cold wet flannel .... cold damp sticky ...but amazing to mop up the sauces with
    nyom nyom

    well thats two maybe a ethiopian ride one saturday take in some kuk wat and nkulalal wat (spelling ? )

    There used to be a really good Ethiopian in Tufnell Park, not too cheap as I remember though....

  • Are none of the places on Cally Road any good?

    cally road being caledonian road ?
    don't pass that way much

  • I work on Cally road and my experience is they leave a lot to be desired

  • If only that list was split into NESW!

    Sorry got work to do. Carry on...

  • Noodle King on Bethnal Green Road. Massive dishes for a fiv£r.
