Zizzi - Hornchurch - (Near , london)

Syed A Inan I went to this small Bangladeshi restaurant today, just a stones throw walk from Upton Park station, called Choruibhati. Not a commercially chain or one of the posh eating palces one might go for a meal. In fact, it is at the moment sitting in the middle of a construction site. We ordered Kachchi Biriyani, Tehari, Duck Bhuna with Pilau, Beef Bhuna with Pilau, Jorda rice, Halim and Borhani as takeaway. At first I was pretty skeptical about the food, but, once my nostrils had a whiff of the food, I realised I was about to be amazed. And, amazed I was. The food was rustic with blends of carefully mixed subcontinental spices that subtly brushes your palate in layers. Any trace of spice is washed away by the complex tangy-spicy-sweet-milky taste of the Borhani. Each dish can be tasted separately due to the differentiated spice blend, unlike all the commercial curry houses where one sauce is used for all the dishes. Comparing to most of the High Street commercial curry/biriyani houses, this is a hidden gem in the heart of East London. There is space for family or a group of 15+ as well as anyone using a wheelchair (down stairs) to sit and enjoy a hearty Bangladeshi exquisite meal. The Chef, Nizam, is a kind man with a warm smile. N.B: Due to constructions wheelchair access at the moment may not be suitable.

Pun Not much to say other than it’s perfect for a special occasion or if you’re a massive foodie and want to try some of the best food in London. Service is probably the best I’ve experienced, and the seasons tasting menu was divine. The sommelier was extremely helpful, and the Core-teser is potentially the best dessert I’ve ever had. Overall, a fantastic creation that everyone involved should be very proud of. Terrific experience!

Michaela Shenkin Always a great experience here! As a regular I can safely say that the coffee/tea is excellent and the atmosphere is perfect for getting work/studying done. A special shout-out to Zee, who deserves endless praise. Their kindness, attentiveness, and all-around incredible customer service takes all visits to another level. Highly, highly recommend visiting!

Charlie A great choice for a family brunch / lunch - lots of great choices for seating, relaxed, unhurried and really warm service! There was genuinely something for everyone on the menu - the add ons and extras were generous portion wise and these felt like decent value for money. The childrens menu was from about £12 but again portions good and ingredients good quality. Coffee was superb, food was excellent and staff lovely. The whole place was pristine (including the toilets!) and we felt really comfortable throughout our lunch. Next time we would consider the bottomless drinks options ... £25 for 90mins!

SRILA SATOH I enjoyed my visit to Chaiiwali Cafe. I tried the pink chai for the first time and found it quite pleasant, though slightly sweet for my taste. The staff are friendly, and the welcome is warm. #Halal restaurant Suhur deal only £6! Ramadan Mubarak ☪️

Rishaal Brilliant choice of food! Breakfast came out hot and fresh! Quick service, great customer service. Thank you!
