Why don't you try Kebabish, Himalaya oh and Ambala's do food..not just mithai! Kebabish and Himalaya are in Green Street btw.

Green Street or Southall for proper restaurants, Pakistani food that is.

Edgware Road for halal but not Pakistani food.

Most Nando's are halal too.

No halal Pizza Hut. There are a few halal Nandos like in Tooting but not all so do check. KFC is not halal but Chicken Cottage and Dixys are.

But you can get lots of halal pizza places, look for the halal sign on the window.

i have eaten @ kebabish which is in upton park and it was just ok...too spicy for me....they put some extra chaat masala over the grilled food:-/..this green street is green park right?

@rupayhalwa ...this lebanese turkish food i have eaten already at westfield in shepherd's bush...

@uzzybuzzy...there is no halal pizza hut in whole london? :O BAD...i have aten at Nando's as well..yaar chicken cottage @ oxford indeed sucks:-/ with that bad experience didn't bother to try @ dixys:$

rupay which halal pizza places do u recommend...anyone near to pizza hut(in taste) here? :S

by the way last night i was in camden town and there found fri-chicks...didn't try but that was appearing to me much closer to kfc...

anyway tonight had a gr8 dinner ..though quite expensive but indeed awesome at bundu khan,aldgate east...

give me some more suggestions..keep them coming friends...yeah londoners c'mon!

There is a halal Domino's in Finchley. I think East Finchley. Only chicken though. Or so they claim.

pyaare · Apr 17th, 2009, 07:36 PM

If you are in South London, check Tooting out

RupayHalwa · Apr 18th, 2009, 07:45 AM

Sorry mate, cannot recomment any pizza's, they r all a bit different from eachother, not really chains. Check Milly's suggested Domino's.

Check out zabihah.com. It has listing of halal places all over the world. I use it for my home state in America. This is a site for word of mouth meaning if a person discovers a halal place, they add it to the site. The caveat is on you to confirm any location listed as halal.

i've found some reeeally good chinese places in the bayswater area.

check out Kiasu ... straits of malacca/malaysian/singaporean/chinese/thai type food. quite different from your usual fare and pretty cheap (weekdays lunch 5 pounds for starter+main course)

also there is magic wok a shanghainese restaurant thats recently gone Halal.

Sunset_Eyes · Apr 21st, 2009, 06:03 AM

There is C&R restaurant which is Chinese in bayswater. Also Lebanese Called Alunak (spelling maybe wrong). Opposite C&R there is a halal Nandos.

The Maroush chain

.... great food and atmosphere. Visit their site to find info as they have a couple of restaurants in London....

They should pay me for the free advertising they are getting from me

RupayHalwa · Apr 21st, 2009, 08:41 AM

^ Hey I went to a Maroush and they gave me and other lady in our group a nicely decorated gift wrapped dish of baklava. Nice touch.

sumorani · Apr 21st, 2009, 09:40 AM

i know you said not tayyabs but since i just went there for the first time on my trip, ive gotta say the lamb chops were out of this world! and if u live in london u need to try that place!

Sunset_Eyes · Apr 21st, 2009, 10:11 AM

Yes Maroush is very nice - Lebanese cuisine - I agree when they the staff see some ladies, they give something or the other for free..

There is also Beirut Express on Edgeware Road - they do amazing freshly cooked food!

Hmm, I've heard alot about these lamb chops... But 3 people I know in real life went there and had dodgy stomachs afterwards, however, I think I might risk that just to see what the fuss is about!
