The List's Eating & Drinking Guide 2008 is now in the shops. This review is taken from the 2007 edition.
Now owned and run by its former chef and his wife, India Today gives you the chance to take a culinary tour of India with a single phone call. Choosing typical dishes from each region of the country, the menu is bewilderingly large, but, thankfully, each comes with detailed notes about its ingredients and origin. A large proportion of customers are vegetarian or vegan, and proprietor Mrs Hussein is proud of India Today's willingness to produce veggie/vegan versions of nearly all its dishes. The bhindi bhajee is spiced with an even hand, the okra still lightly crunchy and with a pleasing lack of oil, while the lamb pasanda melts in the mouth and leaves a buttery aftertaste that ensures every scrap of sauce will be scooped up with the light, fragrant naan.
