London’s Best Places to Eat in Unexpected Locations
"Established over 70 years ago by Krishna Menon, India’s first High Commissioner to the UK, The India Club is a central London institution. Inside the Hotel Strand Continental, the space is unassuming and steeped in history, though it’s also at risk of closure, currently crowdfunding to remain open as the landlord strives to convert the restaurant space into hotel accommodation or at least increase the rent by around 80 percent. Regardless, it offers good value for the area and quality Indian food. Here the menu is broadly split into vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, and like much of the best stuff, it’s the vegetarian dishes that really sing. The pani puri, moderately spiced egg curry, and chilli paneer are all must-tries." - Jonathan Hatchman
