This is one of our regular favourites. Dinusha reckons that their Chicken Kotu is even better than those she has eaten in Sri Lanka, and Cliff loves their Masala Dosa, just as good as the very best in South India. Many Airbnb guests have really loved the food here. And great value too.
Ask for Mr Fernando, he will look after you. A short five minute drive away to South Harrow.
