    One of my fav places in Mumbai is Govinda's at the ISCON Temple here. Yes! The food is amazing n Satvic. Being a Meditator/Vegetarian it suits me perfectly. Thanks for introducing me to this place in London. I hadn't heard of it. Please continue wd this Series.. It's heartening to know dat there r so many Indian Restos out there. Here, they are vanishing as ppl r more into Cafes n Mc Do kinda places. A very Happy Holi to u dear Chetna. Stay Blessed..

    To each their own but I didn't like the food at Govinda's. I decided to eat at the restaurant after praying upstairs. I found the food to be quite bland, it didn't have enough masala in the food. Saying so, it's a good place for people who find Indian food to be too strong.

    I live near Toulouse & there's nothing that l'd call real Indian tastes.. very disappointing for a self-taught (thanks to Madhur Jaffrey's books..) aspiring Indian-style adventurous cook since the 70s...

    "Oldest Indian restaurant in the UK." Over 35 yrs.... So I flew into London in 1970, year I was to finish college, and a friend of a friend had hooked us up w a Brit born in India as part of the Raj who took us to a little hole in the wall for an Indian lunch. What might that restaurant have been?
