Namak Mandi, Tooting
Namak Mandi is somewhat of an institute of Tooting. Every night, the place would be heaving with people waiting to devour Namak Mandi’s fantastic pashtun dishes like chapli kebab, huge naans, karahis and even sajji, a whole lamb or chicken roasted over coal. Not to worry if you didn’t get a chance to visit, they are open for takeaway and delivery so you too can enjoy their traditional, heart-warming dishes with the exception of the enormous whole lamb, of course.

AlHaji Suya, Peckham and Greenwich
AlHaji Suya is a breath of fresh air from all the halal American bbq joints in London. You can pick-up some freshly barbecued Nigerian suya. If you haven’t had suya before, the tozo suya is the one you want to go for – fatty and tender beef barbecued and sprinkled in a spicy yaji powder. Their lamb suya is also worth trying.
If you fancy a piece of this but live too far out, you can opt for their nationwide delivery suya.
