Nestled between Ladywell and Foresthill is an Indian restaurant that's worth a visit even if it means travelling all the way from central London. Babur Brasserie has been in existence for more than a couple of decades and has gained the justifiable reputation of being one of the best Indian restaurants in and around London. The décor is what you might expect with loud red velvet seats, white table cloths and ethnic art work. The sitar music in the background sets the mood for an authentic experience. The extensive list of wines from around the world will lay to rest any pre-conceived notions you might have about the compatibility between Indian cuisine and wine.

Once you've selected your wine, begin with the Bengali beetroot cutlets or go for the Mughal style saffron marinated king prawns.Uttapam, Yorkshire deer cutlet and ostrich infused with sandalwood and fenugreek make equally delicious alternatives. For the mains try the chicken biryani cooked in Chettinad style and conclude with the bread and butter pudding if you want to play safe or go for the beetroot samosa or rasamalai if you're feeling adventurous. The great service and reasonable prices at Babur make your journey, however short or long, completely worth it.
