    There's a thread for Chinese takeaway but not Indian...

    I'm craving a Lamb Rogan Josh... I used to get one from Spice & Rice in Dorset St when I was living in Finglas and it was gorgeous, had lovely big chunks of tomato and everything in it... can't seem to get it in any of the Indians I've tried out here (Curry Fusion, Spice Heaven etc).

    Can anyone recommend there favourite?

    Himself would be getting a Lamb Bhuna, so nice Bhuna and Rogan Josh!

    Lots have closed over the last year or so. Indie @home used to operate out of the Coolmine Industrial estate and was delicious. Shimla used to be good too and Rangoli has since changed names and we haven't used it in years. Jaipur in Ongar is really nice and as for Delhi Darbar...yum!

    Indie At Home was the best until it closed. Tanjore Palace in Tyrrelstown is good too.

    Bombay Pantry in Ashtown is great but they really need to sort out their delivery area. They deliver to more congested and harder parts of the general Dublin 15 area to get to than other parts they don't, see the map in the link

    Bombay pantry won't deliver out to Mulhuddart.

    Might give Delhi darbar a try.

    I know, silly considering you'll get there quicker and easier than the back of Carpenterstown.

    I have often bought from Spice Heaven in Coolmine Ind Est.

    http://www.just-eat.ie/restaurants-spiceheaven/menu

    They were originally on the ground floor of the unit, then moved upstairs and are back downstairs again.

    When they were upstairs, there was a huge big window between the kitchen and the waiting room and you could watch your order being prepared. Kitchen spotless.

    They prepared the food anyway I asked then to.

    Actually had a lamb bhuna last week and though it was lovely, then again, I wouldn't be an expert on that dish

    I think I must be really hard to please because I tried Delhi Darbar and binned it after one mouthful. Tanjore Palace is pretty consistent but I find their delivery very slow. Will try Spice Heaven next time.

    You didn't like Foolok either if I remember correctly so you must be fussy :p

    Have tried Spice Heaven a few times and was underwhelmed... have a delivery ordered from Delhi Darbar, lamb Rogan Josh and lamb Bhuna... will report back... wonder could I get them to deliver a bottle of Gaviscon too, ran out earlier on and dying from a case of heartburn right this minute... pregnancy sucks.

    Precisely...have been craving a decent fillet of beef in black pepper sauce like Wans used to do for the last few weeks. Think I'm going to have to drive to Celbridge to China Wall to get as good, none of the local ones come close.

    Hung Wuns black pepper sauce is pretty good... prefer it to Fooloks now... (himself got sick of the beef curry there so we tried Hung Wun). Then again, you're fussy, so I'm not going to tell you it's amazing only for you to come back and tell me it's actually crap :p

    Well aren't I glad I didn't order from Spice Heaven last night :\

    Delhi Darbar was lovely... well the Rogan Josh was, they covered the Bhuna in spinach and himself doesn't like spinach so he moaned about that :p he tasted some of my Rogan Josh though and said he'd get that the next time as it was lovely. The chicken pakora was yum too!

    We got food from there last night, but never again!

    We ordered two chicken jalfrezis. The food that came was marked as masalas ... we did ring them and they said it was actually jalfrezis ... either way, it was mank! The sauce was this disgusting orange gungey sticky stuff, reminded me of Eddie Rockets cheese sauce, but more disgusting.

    Horrible altogether.

    Okra Green in Castleknock is very good quality. :) Bombay Pantry also has my seal of approval.

    Ordered for the first time from Shanti Indian Shack in Tyrellstown tonight and have to say I'm very impressed. Their meal deal was main course + rice/naan + a can of soft drink + poppadoms but actually arrived with an onion bhaji as well. The food was hot and really tasty. €11.50 for the deal, delivery €2. Will order from there again!
