"This splendid Anglo-South Asian restaurant, right above where the L and G trains cross, offers the Balti cooking of the UK, which originated in Birmingham in the early 1970s. It represent an adaptation of fare from the Punjab, a region that straddles Pakistan and India, much of it cooked in a wok-like pan known as a balti. Though most of the menu at London Tandoori will be familiar, the dishes labeled “balti” are the ones to begin with, sweet with onions, with a little less sauce than is usual in northern Indian cooking. Also don’t miss the spicy potatoes called bomba aloo, and black pepper chicken, which ignites the mouth with black pepper rather than chiles." - Eater Staff
