Taste Of Lahore Shepherds Bush - Review - Hammersmith - London - The Infatuation

"You’ll find this branch of Taste Of Lahore in Brook Green, a little north of Hammersmith and below Shepherd’s Bush, and it’s a useful place to know about whichever end you’re coming from. Part sit-down Pakistani restaurant, part London chicken shop, Taste Of Lahore does its best to be whatever you want it to be. There are big banquettes for families in need of half an hour and office-workers looking for alone time with a biryani and naan, as well as looping menu screens for any street smart teens who didn’t know you can get a kebab with chips for less than a tenner. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Being all things to all people doesn’t tend to end well, but Taste Of Lahore really does the job. The lamb shank biryani isn’t just great-value, it’s generous and melt-in-your-mouth with a masala gravy on the side. And the chicken tikka is OK, if dry. Look around the room and you’ll see others having similar head nods as they bite into their veggie samosas. If other fast-casual chains took Taste Of Lahore’s lead, London would be all the better. Food Rundown Lamb Shank Biryani The ludicrously generous biryani comes with a whole shank in the middle that pretty much collapses from the bone the moment it hits the table. The meat is excellent. The rice isn’t the most fragrantly spiced but it’s decent. Ladle in a few spoonfuls of the masala sauce that comes on the side—it’s kind of like a fragrant gravy—and you’re in business. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Chicken Tikka This sizzling plate of chunks of chicken breast isn’t the most deeply marinated or carefully cooked we’ve ever had. Far from it. But it does what it says on the tin and is fine when slathered in sauce or picked up with a tear of freshly baked naan. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Jake Missing
