Being from Birmingham and the balti being one of the cities favourite dishes I have always been disappointed with Indian restaurants I have visited since moving to the big city... until last night!I was recommended Lahore Kebab House in Shoreditch (and after visiting the Brick Lane area before and being disappointed and feeling harassed to choose a restaurant I wasn't too hopeful!). It was somewhere I would never have visited as you can't book, the waiting area alone could accommodate a decent sized restaurant, it looks like a cheap hotel restaurant or canteen, it is huge and full of suits from the city, plus there is a rather unattractive sign outside. Despite all of this the food was amazing, especially the grilled lamb chops for starters and the traditional pistachio kulfi to cool down with after but I have never seen it on stick before! One I will visit again and recommend to others and I love BYO restaurants, handily there is an off-license next door too.
