Indian restaurant in Borough, near London Bridge Station. They're not licensed, but you can BYOB. They also do takeaway and delivery, and you can order online from Just-Eat.
Kake and bob tried the delivery option in April 2009. The food arrived hot and on time.
Salmon samosas (£3.15 for two) were fine, but meat samosas (£2.10 for two) contained several thin slivers of onion skin. Memsahibs lacy cutlets (£3.15 for two) had decent-size chunks of meat.
Cafe Nawaz special masala (chicken with minced meat and "oriented" spices, £6.50) and bagari gosht (Hyderabadi lamb with fresh coriander, £5.25) were both very generous with the meat content, and the sauces were well-flavoured. Tarka daal (£2.35) was a bit salty. Bhindi bhaji (£2.35) was quite lemony, which worked well. Plain rice (£1.90) was fine.
In total, we paid just over £30 for what would probably have been nearly enough food for three people. The quality was fine too, in general, and Kake would happily order from here again.
