You’ll be queuing out the door at this
popular bring your own Pakistani restaurant in Tooting. But with change from £20 having eaten enough

The beef noodle soup at this Brixton
Village staple has a real chilli kick to it, delicious. The menu is small but all food is excellently
done. Watching the dumplings being
freshly made in house is mesmerising, and eating them even more so. Another branch has recently been opened in
Clapham Common, which is testament to its success.
