Indian Cuisine Tower Bridge London
Indian Cuisine Tower bridge in London
Tower bridge is probably the most iconic bridge in the world - and there is an Indian restaurant right there serving lunches & dinners for a taste sensation.
London hosts a fair few Indian restaurants however, The Gunpowder is a little different - not the classic dishes you are used to.
I have to say, I enjoyed this more than I expected - and the espresso martini was a welcome touch with an Indian cuisine lunch

Greetings, and what an amazing new start to the channel... off the charts How to be blown away on a friday morning here in Thailand ( loi krathong day) Sit down with a coffee and watch the latest DJ Video... The Splash is on so here we go, What a simpy wonderful lunch and camera work of the highest order. Fantastic looking indian fayre and supreme in its presentation. Type of place to woo a lady for sure, but as per usual we have 'Omar' on his own to give its own bachelor content. Espresso Martini looks devine, almost reminded me of a Brandy Alexander. The Pommegranate yoghurt looked so vibrant and fresh, but for me the surprise was the fluffy scotch egg turning into the most delectable of delight,and of course the amazing chicken which was charred to perfection. This was Temptation on another level and i would say at Forty Notes was a bargain. Well Done to The GUNPOWDER. But more importantly thankyou to Darren John for the video. The timing of the ding bell at 12.55 on the fella"s head walking past was nothing short of a thumbs up, like, & share... Regards as always Big Cee

Up market lunch in a nice restaurant. Good variety of colourful dishes you had, all looked very good. Prices a little high, but not too bad for London. They gave you a decent size jug of tandoori sauce. Not sure about the yoghurt/veges though, not for me and I noted you left some of that. But the quality, portion size and presentation was very good. 9/10 for me. Keep up the good work Darren.

Hiya DJ! Fantastic vlog as always. The music and video etc off the charts. I've only had venison once back in July as a burger. Can say it's an acquired taste definitely. Looks nicer in the doughnut there. The tandoori chicken looking delicious but I agree wish was off the bone. I think best drink had to be the Leche Leche and the other one you had with the afternoon tea in Tenerife which was all sorts of colours.. Think the Espresso Martini would be too strong for me. Keep em coming DJ

Excellent vlog again I'm not a fan of the normal Indian type restaurant, however, that looks superb, some friends of mine went to BiBi in N Audley Street last week also looked great. What does come across more and more with your videos is that it's all about the food more than the price, also how much you love London and what an ambassador you are for your city, great shots of Tower Bridge and the river. 👍👍

That food looked really nice. It is interesting most people think of a country with one or two main dishes only, Italy with pasta and pizza, India with curries yet they do have other dishes as shown by this restaurant and these looked beautiful and worth the money. I think it is a good idea to try other dishes from a country, those that are not as well known. I would Score this a 10/10 as it looked so tasty and different to the usual Indian cuisine of curry. 🇦🇺🇦🇺😁😁🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍👍
