The 2011/12 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £5.95 (+p&p).
A fixture of the West End for almost half a century, this traditional family favourite still stands out with its stylish décor which was one of the first to throw out the clichéd Indian restaurant trappings in favour of contemporary design, large glass windows and crisp linen. They may also have been the first to introduce the Tandoor method of cooking spicy marinated meats in a charcoal-fired clay oven and while their speciality is Punjabi cuisine, there are also Kashmiri and Goan influences. The extensive menu covers all the usual dishes, from poori and poppadoms to bhoona and basaar, including many of the Seventies faithfuls from its early days in nearby Gibson Street, reflecting their motto ‘unspoilt by progress’. There is a separate set menu available for vegetarians on request, and a few European meals on offer too. The Shish is particularly popular for takeaways, running until late in the evening.
