  the cheapy veggie glutton's dream

  Current

  I got excited just walking there. They are open relatively late (11.30), and the last time I went they were still putting out fresh food every ten minutes or so and it was already 10.15. It is certainly not the swankiest of places by the look of it, but the combination of incredible prices (3.50 for never ending buffet of amazing and fresh curries, rices, salads, and fried goodies? yeesss please), and surprisingly friendly and accommodating staff makes it my ONE sure thing. It is where I go when I feel like rewarding myself, because I can just sit (alone or with friends, it is not intimidating to dine solo here) and simply eat like the glutton I am for as long as I want, and not feel guilty in the least! Vegan and cheap- I'm sold.

  Be Beautiful eat Veggie

  Current

  The dusty neon sign outside sports the legend All you can Eat - £3.50 and its been that price for about a decade. At night its bustling will all sorts of pond life. Open 7 days a week from midday until very late evening. Its hardly surprising that the carpets dusty and the whole joint has a threadbare feel to it, bordering on the grimy. For some thats part of its charm. On the walls are large colour pix of lithe Indian actresses. Vegetarian babes who don't eat meat. Their full pouty lips and glowing complexions combine sexiness and healthy living - at least in the mind of the management. The rest of the walls have verbose propaganda about the benefits of veggie nosh. The place serves a running buffet which is good, but be warned the food is all pretty hot'n'spicy. Not scorching, tongue-sizzling and throat frying hot. But still kind of burning. If it was cooler then people would eat more and buy a lot less cooling drinks. If you can handle it hot this is a good place to tank up. Kind of like going to roadside India without leaving N1.

  Bhelpoori House

  Current

  An Indian veggie at the head of Chapel Market that somehow manages to satisfy my sense of thrift and expose my love of gluttony. Where else in London do they serve up delicious, wholesome grub, such as this, at a cost of just 3.50 for all-you-can eat? Nowhere, that's where. The dhal I can pass over, but the lentil and potato curries are lovely and soft and mild and moreish. There's also a crunchy cabbage and lemon salad that i've also kind of grown to love. The walls are full of veggie propaganda, all in lurid green, often quoting beautiful Indian actresses extolling the virtues of vegetarianism (I'm not one, incidentally). It all conspires, as if somewhere just so nice could conspire, to lend the place an impression of relaxed, enlightened and utterly unpretentious character, at a price that you can't quite believe. Seriously, it's the best value I've ever experienced in London. And, when I come to think of it, a place where I always prefer to eat alone.
