Guidekin's take

An East End food walk brings together curries, tandoori dishes, fried snacks and traditional sweets.

Tastings include lassi, naan and rice; the menu can change, and dietary requirements need to be discussed in advance. 4.9 from 642 reviews at €88 per person for 3h.

In our comparison: #23 of 48 in Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
