John - Best Indian on Brick Lane! Sheek kebab followed by balti garlic chilli chicken … Sheek kebab came sizzling and the garlic chicken had a good kick. Both excellent.
Graeme - Another good meal at Muhib - one of the best places on Brick Lane these days. The place was absolutely rammed, which made the service a bit slow but they coped OK - I think we dawdled a bit over our meals so we contributed to the long-ish overall time in the restaurant. The food was very good. I had Prawn Puree to start and King Prawn Pathia for main. They had draught Cobra as well as bottled Kingfisher. At £45 p/h it wasn't cheap but neither was it expensive by today's standards. As usual, it was a good night for conversation, plus we were treated to an appearance from Griff who returned after a number of foreign 'jaunts'.
Mark - Back to Brick Lane again so the usual PoS meet before heading to a fairly full Muhib which got even more packed giving a good atmosphere. Although having a young family sat right behind us could have led to a reduction in swearing, if not for our elder statesman declaring no use of the C word - except he used the full word! Anyway, service was fine, my lamb starter was very good, main tasty and I even had some bread & veg for a change albeit in small quantities. Another enjoyable Currymarks evening as we avoided any political discussion.
Dave - Excellent curry at the Muhib - I like this restaurant! Good to meet at the PoS - one of the few places in London you can still get a pint for less than £5. Superb Griff set menu at the restaurant with bottled kingfisher to wash down. Evening was going great until my arrival at Liverpool Street for the 21:28 train which was cancelled - overhead wires down. Ended up staying over at John's in Angel (obviously he was really pleased to see his dad!) and eventually arrived home at 8:30am the next morning!!
Brian - An enjoyable return to beers and a curry with friends. Stuffed mushrooms starter, whilst being exactly as described, was disappointing. Bangladeshi fish curry was very good. Draft cobra was moreish. Sag aloo and Chana masala were just right. Nice couple of doom bars in the PoS was an excellent opening to the evening too. Ambience marked up as I like a curry house that attracts families.
Jeff - Pretty good performance from a very busy Muhib. Friendly service, although a little while passed before our order was taken. Draft cobra is always a hit. Food was mainly good and there was plenty of it, but the rice was cold and I had a strong suspicion that the mushroom in the bhaji was out of a tin. No discount led to a pretty hefty £45, standard these days, and this was without any special rices or extra large mixed meat dishes etc.
