Faheem's Fast Food

Just noticed how ugly my fish stew photo looks. I promise its delicious!!

Last night we had our monthly curry club and this time it was my choice so naturally I went for my favourite - Faheem's Fast Food on Enmore Road. Before the birth of the Monkey, I used to go and see as many bands as possible at the Enmore theatre just so I'd have another excuse to visit Faheem's. No website I'm afraid but check out the old SMH review - http://www.smh.com.au/news/restaurant-reviews/faheem-fast-food/2006/03/10/1141701679333.html

As there were 10 of us, we got to try a few new dishes but my favourite remains the Haleem "King of Curries" which is beef cooked with lentils and green chillis. Its cooked for something like 24 hours so the beef is almost dissolved into the lentil sauce. I must make an attempt to recreate it at home. Does anyone have a good recipe? The best of the new dishes I tried was the Dal Makhani - a black lentil dish. As Faheem's are masters of the tandoor we also went for a variety of nan and the chicken and fish tikkas which I would also highly recommend.

Don't expect great service, you'll probably have to get your own water and cutlery (although we had great service last night) but do expect fantastic curries - perfect for a winter's evening.
