Can You Handle a Vindaloo Curry, Too Hot?
Vložit

- Is a vindaloo curry too hot or can you go extremely hot? I tried the Indian Lounge in Grays Inn Rd London by St Pancras station, Kings Cross. A lamb vindaloo with tender pieces of meat and a sauce just right to make your tongue tingle. A curry I would recommend and the downstairs indoor garden is exceptional. To start it was chilli chicken and some papadoms.
A great Indian lunch - to coin a phrase by @DarrenJohn Off the Charts!

Vindaloos are lovely, perfect heat level for a regular day
Love how you pulled out the poppodoms to finish off the starter plate... Wasted nothing, love it mate x
Loved it Darren, I can't do the vindaloo, too hot! Yeah thought they were a tad short on proportions!! Keep well buddy. Dr Paul
Thanks for watching!
You found another OTC Indian cafe! Looked great!
That vindaloo looked just right to me a madras or vindaloo is my curries of choice
👌🏼👍🏼🙏🏼

😂
I find a good Vindaloo is actually sour and tangy rather than super chilli hot - it can get confusing if they DO add some chilli, though.
Ohhhhhh what a beautiful Resturant....looked lovely .
It really is!
As an Indian, that Bangladesh food looks brilliant
Great vid as always!!...The food looked proper boomin great!...Good to see you again Boyzee!!
NO, you're not crazy. I know exactly what you mean about wanting more. I used to eat this once a week for 30 yrs and miss it so much. Enjoy 😊😋
Another top end vlog big man , that curry and all the bits looked so so good.
The buildings are really nice around King’s Cross.
Nice one Darren. Another great find. Food looked great!
The sniff gives it away! 😂
😂
🥵. Not me. 😂 😂😂❤
Had a vindaloo once, ended up sat in me string vest such was my sweating, needed a shower when I got home.... other stuff happened later too but this is a family channel! 🤣 I'm a baby with heat
Restaurant looked good, food looked good, and the video looked great. Thanks Darren
Thank you
That looks lush,I could eat that now.smashing video really enjoyed it 👍.
Most restaurants portions have become smaller due to costs from suppliers, increase in utilities, etc, etc.
Hope you’re well darren great to see a curry vlog mate my favourite food on the planet
So good Carl
that looks lodget bruv would luv that right now
The thing about the beer from the American bar owner/tv personality, is purely about speed of serve and increasing profitability in busy busy bars and then your own preference when it comes to drinking lager/beer that’s carbonated!
Loved the music in the video well done
That looked great. Ive just booked for the weekend. Great vid DJ.
Hope you enjoy it!
Looked nothing outside but incredible inside. Good looking vindaloo and starter as you say definitely off the charts. Thanks for yet another brilliant vlog. Colin
Brilliant filming and music. As a rugby playing student in the North we had a tradition. First match for the first XV we had to play the game, run a mile after the match...sink four pints and eat a vindaloo...all in 40 minutes. I hate beer, cannot stand very hot food but WTF. Darren is like my dad. He could tell me every bus I needed to get from A to B in London and we lived in Yorkshire. Going to London with him was always good news as we would hit amazing restaurants, pubs, museums. We had our differences but who doesn’t?
Appreciate your comment Mike 👊🏼👌🏼🙏🏼👍🏼
Thanks for Sharing Darren John it looked delicious .
My pleasure
I love a good vindaloo curry, Great to see you doing currys again 👍
Nice one DJ. looked really nice.
St Pancras station is a fantastic looking building, I can remember it in the late 70's before the refurb. We used a pub called the Euston Tavern close by and a KFC in the same area and if I remember right was open 24/7, a novelty for the 70's.
The prices at the Indian Lounge are very good for London, the food itself looked excellent as well as the restaurant décor.
Great stuff, Darren. Food looked good, and very reasonable prices, especially for 'Laandan'!
Went out to our local Indian ourselves tonight, too. Was great as always. 😋👌
That all looked delicious...great presentation too. fantastic prices for London too ....excellent!!
So good!
I live in France now and love it...but I do miss a good curry.
I discovered an Indian restaurant 1/2 hour away and went. I asked for a vindaloo as they, not the French, eat it.
They were worried it would be too hot but cooked it for me.
Then they stood around watching me eat it ! 😂
Lovely looking food Darren. Used to love a vindaloo but unfortunately can't manage it now, great video
💚as long as you enjoyed it.
Great video as always love a Ruby 🤤
Another great curry vlog DJ. Kings Cross has proper redeveloped with the street food markets in the back. Looks well nicer now compared to years ago.
Nice one darren 👍👍👍
Just found your chennel, what a hidden gem. Food looked really good, need some heat with my indian food.
Awesome! Thank you and welcome Mats
What a magnificent building at the beginning of this vlog. Your food looked extremely rich, glad you enjoyed it.
👍🏼🙏🏼
Your a good man to eat a hot curry that table beside the fish pond would be the one for me
The decor kinda reminds me of somewhere around 1987, but I like it!
Yet another outstanding post Darren really liked the downstairs of restaurant a true jem
Looking forward to next post 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
The food looked amazing DJ. I’m in London this week for 3 days on a business trip, might have to give this restaurant a visit ❤
Nice place Rob 👊🏼🙏🏼👍🏼
That looked good . Off the charts.!!
Oh yes Karen OTC
mouth is now watering going to try it next time in the area
great video darren
Glad you enjoyed it
Superb DJ, I couldn’t have ate it myself, a bit too spicy for me, but it looked Amazing 🌶️🌶️👍👍
That looked off the charts Darren
Excellent review and gorgeous looking food glad you chose lamb as most people go for chicken but your last words were my first words the portions were very small especially compared to some of the other curries you and Luke have reviewed 👍👍🥘🥘🍺🍺
Lovely stuff👍🏽
When I get off the train at Euston it’s usually into the Euston Tap for a couple of liveners and then round the corner into Roti King for some top notch yums.
I’ll take a stroll down to Kings Cross and check out Indian Lounge next time👍🏽
What a lovely place. And great value. I love a curry but I wuss out on a mild one, you kept your cool with the vindaloo. 🥵🥵🔥🔥
Awesome looks good, do a Phaal for the boys next time.
Yes I definitely could. Love spice. Trouble is now I'm 60 odd it doesn't like me or my stomach. It's so annoying. !!!!!😫 smashing vid, stay well and happy 😊😉
Beautiful music
Just catching up on a few Ive missed...have to say love your background music, no matter what the topic it always seems to go with the story..thank-you for taking the time....regards Doc from Down Under
😃
Much appreciated
Good evening Darren. What a beautiful building that is. The restaurant definitely has put it some magic with the decor. Food looked tasty. It did look a bit small in portion for what you paid. But the main thing is you enjoyed it. I'm not brave enough to try the vindaloo lol! I like the chasni and patias. Just love the extra walk at the end Darren. Thanks again for sharing and see you on the next one! 🥰🌞🥰Xxx
Thanks so much June - always love walking the streets of London
Another fantastic video Darren. Have to say that Vindaloo is one of my favourite curries. I actually had one the other day at my local restaurant. Definitely off the charts👌👌. Agree with you about the portion size but glad you enjoyed it. Great choice of beer too. Cobra is my go to lager at a curry house🍺. Thanks for sharing as always mate.
Nice one Richard 👍🏼👊🏼🙏🏼
Amazing looking food good review
What a beautiful looking restaurant and the food looked great too!! I've had Vindaloo curries here and loved them so I'd definitely try it in England. Delish!! And I'm definitely with you on just wandering around the City and finding new and exciting places to explore. A City like London would have so much to offer. Love a good curry vlog and this was great! Made me super hungry and crave a curry 😂 Cheers for that 👍🏼😁💙
There's something about curries Penny, makes you want one just by the aroma
Penny are you in NYC, l saw a video of an authentic Indian vindaloo restaurant and beyond!!
@@nige3801 No I'm not from NY but have been there before but can't say I ate Indian food whilst there. I ate more American type foods like burgers, pizzas, hot dogs and bagels 😂
Yay DJ my favorite vindaloo. I love your content, you are a honest man. See you soon
Awesome! Thank you!
Amazing place, amazing food thanks for the vlog
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks dj brilliant
Big up
Fair play . It looks quality there. I cant handle the hot stuff
. Tikka massala is my limit so i will whimp out. Great shots of London as usual. Thanks
Excellent content and great looking food, good value for money
St Pancras is a wondeful building that some of us northern folk arrive into London when coming by train. The curry looked fine but probably too hot for us! 🙂
That curry looked amazing, I do like a nice bit of heat 🌶️ in my food 👍🏽 The starter you had looked superb, I had food envy 😂 Indian restaurants for the most part are all stunningly decorated inside aren’t they and that one was no exception, beautiful 🤩
Nice!
Nice setting. Also nice are the plugs behind you for the ECG. 😆
😂😂
Looks great! I enjoy a good lamb vindaloo just have to be careful how often I eat one.
Food looks delicious
Hey DJ! I’m a bit of a wuss when it comes to curries. Can only have the mild sweet ones. Never think about having lamb in curry either. Even though it’s my favourite meat. I always have chicken. Nevertheless a nice looking starter and main dish - not that I could eat those. Your face spoke volumes again. Could tell it was OTC. Very nice relaxing video as always and the restaurant was fabulous inside. Take care 😘👍🏻
British food at its best, unless you like steak & kidney pie or the english/scottish breakfast. I heard that the steak & kidney pudding is better than the usual pie but I've never tried that one. Nevermind, vindaloo is the strongest. Make sure to buckle up on the table with natural yoghurt and/or rice and you will cope fine. As a norwegian, I usually go to the Roti King at Euston station to get my favourite malay dish beef rendang. The best malay food stall in the UK. Unfortunately there are endless queues there normally.
Thanks for sharing
Love a vindaloo Darren, tastes just right.
Tried phaals a couple of times and it's just pure heat but with a vindaloo you can tell it's got a proper flavour and not just throwing in as much chilli as possible.
Very nice xx
Another great find, food looks banging. People get mislead a vindaloo when it’s made properly it can’t be beaten in my opinion 👍
Most people that try a super hot curry......"oh Jesus that's fu*£ing hot, my mouth - water, water". DJ when he trys a super hot curry - "thats warm" 😆
😂😂😂👍🏼
i saw they do a phall, so that is on the list! cheers
I have filmed a few phall curries, nice
I went there today. One of my go to places when i'm visiting London.
Nice one 🙏🏼👍🏼
I can't even handle a vindaloo in New York any more, although I used to be able to. A vindaloo in London is much hotter, as I discovered about 30 years ago, so I'm not likely to try again. But I will watch the video because I like your food reviews and I've finally subscribed as well. Also I now think I owe you a watch of the video just to be sure that your head doesn't fall off. I wish I could still eat these very hot things, such as dried Sichuan peppers, but I cannot. I even pick the jalapeno bits out of dishes that come with them. I don't want to endure the reminders that come the next day.
My go to chicken tikka Vindaloo have the odd phall when flued up burn it out of the system.that did look scrumptious Darren 😉
Looked great and loved the garden and pound downstairs, like spice but would be to hot for me. The architecture on that building was beautiful till the next one.
🙏🏼👍🏼🌶
9:39 You ended the bit where I was gonna come!
Hey Darren that looked like a nice place and the food and beer looked the business. Vindaloo how hot was that. I used to love that, unfortunately 15 years ago I copped for a bit of stage4 throat cancer and my mouth just can’t do spice or heat. A small price to pay. I have a local Indian restaurant near by in Massachusetts and he makes me the best very mild roganjosh or chicken tikka masala. My wife however loves hot and spicy stuff so we are all good.
Keep up the fantastic content mate. Suprising fact Americans are starting to like a nice curry!
Interesting, thanks for sharing
I do love a good curry DJ and Vindaloo is one of my favourites. I have had Phall before as well, very powerful and spicy. Looked high class OTC Indian food DJ very nice.
Always love a quality Indian meal, the heat is just part of enjoyment of the food. I have a lovely local Indian restaurant, the Himalayan but when I'm next in Kings Cross station, I will give it a try. 10 out of 10, it's 21.45pm and I'm now feeling hungry 😊👍🏽♥️
So nice
Your so right about Kings Cross, many treat it as a means to an end, instead i will start treating it as a means to enjoy some great food.
Incidentally, the hotel at St Pancras is absolutely beautiful, we stayed there in December 2020, had a great view of the Barlow trainshed.
Nice one Jon
The waiter waiters a bit early for a Christmas jumper isn’t he ? 😀. Your meal looked lovely
I thought that too
That was a great curry...taste and flavour with heat...great balance.
Glad you liked it
Looked great, would defo love to see you try a northern curry to see how they compare
Me too
darren the legend james
James 🙏
Food looked gorgeous Darren, must give it a go there sometime. Vindaloo - perfect heat ! I love an occasional curry on my own, one of my guilty pleasures ! Cheers and best wishes. p.s.......are you still using Creed ?
Still use Creed - and recently purchased some Acqua Di Parma (lovely)
It looked good
Lovely bit of lamb and firey and good price on restaurant
Hey dj hope you are well, i normally have naga lamb curry if u love a hot curry u will love it, that restaurant looked really good value for London, great find 👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
I have filmed naga curries a couple of times - especially the hot curry challenge I did 👍🏼👌🏼
Said before we have some superb Indian restaurants here in Glasgow but that place looks well good and for London its reasonably priced.
Vindaloo is never too hot for me either 🌶️🌶️ I like my curry’s to be madras strength minimum. Food looked great I will have to treat myself to a curry for my upcoming birthday 😎
I dare you to try a curry with insanity sauce.
@@andywrong3247 I’m always up for a challenge spice wise so I will give it a go if I come across it 🥵😂 I’ve had phycho juice a few times to add to dishes that’s very hot but I enjoy it
looks good and a lovely resteraunt.i always have vindaloo,but never lamb.on my to do list.thankyou
Hope you enjoy
