Restaurant Review of Preem & Priti Brick Lane London
October 6th, 2008 · No Comments
Since traditional British Food is completely void of spices, it is shocking that Brits have taken such a liking to the spicy curries of Indian Food. Actually, it’s not just a liking, but an addiction…much like India’s obsession with Britain’s national sport, Cricket. Hmmmm. Who ever said that colonization was a bad thing?
Back to the food. On a recent trip to London, I sought out the best Indian Food in the city and I found myself on a small street called Brick Lane aka Mini Mumbai. My expectations were low despite Londoners constantly bragging about the quality of their curry. After all, England isn’t typically known for their food. Was I about to get told?
The restaurant we picked, after a unanimous recommendation by locals, was Preem & Priti. Not only was it was a cute play on words, but it was also open late. We ordered a special which came out to £11/person.

It came with a first course of papadum, assorted chutneys, and pickled veggies. That was followed by some tandoori chicken and kebab. In a US Indian Restaurant, the meat is the main course, but in London they are nucking futs about their curry. Finally our Lamb Vindaloo and Chicken Makhani curries arrived and it was good. REALLY GOOD!! The Lamb Vindaloo was spicy as hell! So spicy, that I was trying really hard to keep from sweating in front of the London Locals. This food was as spicy as you get in India. Even the less spicy dishes were tasty and authentic.
