Proper desi food. This is probably one of the best restaurants in the Balti Triangle as it's been christened.
It's balti food aimed more at brown people - of which I am one, so when you pop in you will see the place is usually rammed full of desi families.
Worth going just to check out the chairs.
No Chicken Tikka Massala here. Just proper Kashmiri cusine. I recommend the Achari Chicken with Chilli naan bread.
Only downside is that the portions aren't great.

I've been a regular at Saleem's for over 30 years and always been disappointed wherever else I went. Until Desi Khana. Wonderful food, albeit more expensive. Portions are actually huge - I haven't eaten more than I intended to for years. But I did after visiting here on Saturday! Excellent.
