Bengal Clipper, London

This fine Indian restaurant within the Butler's Wharf development, close to Tower Bridge, has been a recipient of AA Rosettes for three consecutive years for Best Indian Restaurant. Situated in a former warehouse, Bengal Clipper is not your neighbourhood curry house - its high ceilings, iron pillars, and paintings mark it out as being one of the newer upmarket restaurants next to the Thames. Its proximity to the City makes it very popular at lunchtime with corporate types, but evenings are given over to a 20 to 30 something media and arts crowd. Fish and seafood continue to be the jewel in the Bengal Clipper's turban. The kitchen specialises in Goan and Bengal dishes, such as Sathkari Gosht (lamb cooked in wild lemon juice).
