Dishoom: the benchmark for Indian cuisine in the UK
Dishoom is my favorite Indian restaurant! And yet it’s a chain based in the UK, so even though I’m not a fan of “chain restaurants”, I’ve been able to try Dishoom in London and here in Edinburgh, and I’m still a fan of their cuisine.
I love Indian cuisine because it offers so many vegetarian and vegan alternatives, but in France I’m often disappointed because I always find the same dishes. At Dishoom, we’re faced with different flavors, no doubt due to the fact that it’s a fusion cuisine between India and Iran.
My favorite dish is the black daal ! A lentil-based dish that has been simmering for hours. I’ve never found a daal as good as this one.
The atmosphere is friendly and the decor invites you to travel! Don’t hesitate to try the cocktails!
