Foodies looking for a refreshing take on Indian cuisine would do well to head over to Shilpa. While most Indian restaurants focus on Northern Indian dishes, the award-winning eatery specialises in the vibrant flavours of Kerala. Their dedication and superb dishes have become quite a hit and best of all, they offer a casual setting that’s ideal for any occasion.
Based in Hammersmith, the friendly restaurant is an easy walk from Stamford Brook and Hammersmith underground stations. Such a central location has made it a popular option with locals and visitors alike, who like to enjoy a relaxed meal before a night of bar hopping in the lively London borough.
Aromatic and multi-layered, Keralan cuisine offers a brighter, vibrant alternative to often heavy North Indian dishes with a focus on fish, coconuts and spices such as pepper and cardamom. Diners will find a range of vegetarian, meat and fish dishes as well as street food classics. For something truly unique, diners should consider the Keralan fish curry or the Erachi Mappas, which includes tender lamb in a rich coconut-based sauce.
Whether it’s a laid-back meal before a show, dinner party or a date night, Shilpa should tick all the right boxes for Indian food lovers. Any visit will be even more memorable for Gourmet Society members. They’ll find savings off their bills when they call to book ahead and present their cards upon arrival. It’s a good excuse to indulge in a curry to share with a friend, another round or their delicious mango kulfi.
