Hichki in Aldgate East showcases distinctive cooking styles and rituals of Mumbai’s authentic taste. There’s even a separate kitchen geared up for the vegan menu, which offers the most diverse dishes using only traditional Indian spices that are intrinsic to the flavours of the specialities served. Try the momo, which are essentially Chinese-style dimsum with Indian fillings.

Fatt Pundit, with two locations in London – one in Soho and the newest in Covent Garden – brings the unique influence of India’s Chinese community and culture from Tangra, Kolkata. Indo-Chinese cuisine is steeped in history and was created by those who emigrated from Canton and Guangdong in China with their rich gastronomic culture and settled in Kolkata and Mumbai, where they began incorporating Indian spices into their Chinese dishes. Fatt Pundit’s menu celebrates this unique diaspora cuisine. No meal in Tangra should begin without a plate of steamed momos, and Fatt Pundit’s honour that. Served with spicy sesame and red pepper chutneys, Fatt Pundit’s version of these hearty Nepalese dumplings are packed with aromatic fillings; our favourite is the Kid Goat with Garam Masala and Cardamom. The Malabar Monkfish Curry is the only curry on the menu and a must try; meaty monkfish fillets are grilled and served with a saffron butter and coconut Malabar sauce, a nod to the beautiful flavours of India’s southwestern coast where some of the Hakka community settled and fell in love with these fragrant curries. Other unmissable options include the Shredded Chilli Venison, which pays homage to the Leopold Irani café in Mumbai; the Bombay Prawns, which deliver perfect texture and spice; and one of the most popular dishes – the Crackling Spinach, a dish inspired by Chinese crispy seaweed: spinach leaves are fried two at a time, dried out for 24 hours to crisp up and served with a tamarind, date and plum sauce, and topped with yoghurt and pomegranate.
