Tandoori lamb chops are what the queue on Fieldgate Street is for, and the dish a New York Times panel of London cooks picked instead is the tinda masala.
Lahore Kebab House
Solid · Pakistani · Whitechapel · $
walk-in
There is no bar in here because the bring-your-own is free, the off-licence is directly opposite, and when the card machine died on a reviewer's fifth visit the restaurant's answer was the free cash machine set into its own front window.
Janna Cafe
Solid · Somali · Whitechapel · $$
walk-in
Lamb shoulder haniid, cooked down until a fork shreds it, with the kitchen's own green bisbas over rice.
Efes Restaurant (Whitechapel)
Listed · Turkish ocakbasi · Whitechapel · $$
book ahead
The restaurant dates itself to 1974, which puts it on this corner about a decade before the Dalston ocakbasi wave that Londoners now think of as the city's Turkish grill tradition.
Coffee2
Exmouth Coffee Company
Listed · Coffee & pastries · Whitechapel · $
walk-in
There is a 2kg Toper roaster in the back and a house blend built for this room, which is a bigger commitment than almost any cafe this size makes.
Grounded London
