倫敦康橋浪漫的一天 🪄 A romantic day in Cambridge, London 康橋是我這次來倫敦前三喜歡的地方!完全可以想像在這邊讀書有多愜意🧚(但我應該是沒那麼聰明)然後終於見識到課本上的《再別康橋》了 haha Cambridge is one of my top three favorite places in London this time! I can totally imagine how pleasant it is to study here 🧚 (but I’m probably not that smart) and finally saw cambridge but not in the textbook haha (ifkyk) 【 倫敦行程 My London Schedule 】 📍 Platform 9¾ 📍 The Tiffin Truck 📍 Cambridge University #newyork#nyvlog#newyorkvlog#留學#留學生活#倫敦#英國#倫敦旅遊#倫敦生活#歐洲生活#倫敦旅遊#倫敦生活#英國旅遊#英國生活#康橋

🍴Indian Food at it's BEST! 😍 🍴Customer Service on point 👌🏼 🍴This place is a Hidden Gem in Cambridge!!! 🍴On many MANY occasions, my family & I have travelled specially (over 1 hour & 30 minutes) to just eat here! I think we had visited atleast once a week for the last few months (mostly June 2023 to Dec 23). We visit Addenbrookes Hospital often & we stumbled across this gem only in the last year (by car, it's approximtely a 10 minute drive from thr hopsital too). 🍴Highly Recommended Dishes: - Pani Puri (Indian Street Food Snack) - Dhosa with Sambar (Plain or Masala Dhosa both very tasty) - Chicken Biriyani (comes with Raita, this Biriyani is one of the best Biriyanis I have had!) - Junglee Mass (A type of Lamb Curry) - Garlic Naan (Super Soft & Fluffy) - Rangeela (Freshly Squeezed Mixed Juice) - Boozy Mango Lassi (An Extreamly Boozy Cocktail with an Indian Twist!) - Thaali (A Selection of Food) 🍴Tiffin Truck always has some sort of mid-week offer, so if you're on a tight budget or just looking for a little bargain, you will definately find something, from a Lunch Thali or Lunch Special, Drinks Offers or Cocktail Offers, no longer accept Meerkat but instead they now accept Tastecard which includes full price drinks too! Please Note: Using these offers does not take away from the amazing food quality. They will serve you their best food as any other customer. I have read other reviews that mention issues around using these offers, but we have been almost every week for the last few months & honestly never had any issues. Yes, the staff kindly & rightfully ask for you to let them know in advance and they are extreamly kind & accommodating when you get there, you really couldn't ask for more. 🍴Parking & Accessibility : - There is various paid off-street parking but be sure to arrive early as it can get busy & parking isn't easily available so may have to find parking elsewhere. - Off-Street Disabled Bays (very limited) - The Restaurant itself is all One Level with Ground-Floor Access. - There are 2 separate toilets to use (1 of them with disabled & baby changing facilities). - No Automatic Entrance Doors 🍴Overall Summary: - Score 10/10 - Amazing food, authentic drinks selection for drinkers & non-drinkers, amazing talented chefs, kind hardworking staff and managers who really care how the place is run and that their customers are looked after 😊 - Worth every penny! And if you go on a day they have offers running, then it's a bonus! 🍴Thanks Tiffin Truck, we will keep coming back regularly 😊 Message to Tiffin Truck: - Please continue with the amazing offers! It's a shame you are no longer on Meerkat but so glad you offer Tastecard with drinks. We have paid full price aswell as use the offers but it brings us back more often when we know there are offers running. - Please also make your online booking for this a little easier as there is currently no extra note section via the Google Booking system to mention we are using Tastecard. - Please get yourselves on Tiktok and other social media platforms for people to help spread the word about your amazing food 🙊 - Please add a really good Chocolatey Dessert Option 😊 - Thank you to all your staff & managers who genuinely care that your customers are enjoying their meals, they check in multiple times during the meal & always ensure they've taken the order correctly. They deserve some recognition & mention in my review 💛

Actually turns out delicious (better than expected), especially for tomato fans. My first thali ever! The dishes are all flavorful. The dal is so warming and tomatoey. The lamb comes in large chunks, lean but not tough. Also tomatoey but has a stronger ginger note. The chickpeas are tasty as well. Always a fan of chickpea and the cloves make it different from the Middle Eastern style. The samosa is also a lovely pocket of mushy peas. Tomato soup and yoghurt are quite refreshing. The pickles are really powerful. It seems that the veggie dish today is the potato… the cumin seasoning is not bad but I already have enough carb on my plate (enjoyed the chappati and pappadom and sorry I’ll remember to ask for less rice next time. It’s fluffy and nice tho). The thali portion is just right for an indulgent meal without over stuffing myself. And I didn’t feel hungry even after six hours :3 Fish curry was recommended over lamb by one of the staff member but I am hungry today and craving red meat. Maybe next time! The Love Cambridge deal works nice for me to give it the restaurant a try (because one of my Indian friends had opinion against it :3) It turns out fairly good, although most flavors are tomato-based and hence quite predictable. Will be happy to come back for the normal price. Waiting time is tolerable, though the neighboring table did miss an item and had to cancel. The smell of the incense is so good.. very different from the expected aroma of spice and gives a calming feeling. It’s the first thing that stroke me. Almost empty before 12. There are dark and brighter areas with vibes of dark lanes and sunlit courtyards. I was led to the darker zone near the front of the shop which hurt my eyes lol. — Second time in three days :) as said I’ll be coming back after the restaurant week too. Tried the fish curry today. To be honest I prefer lamb. The fish boiled in tomato soup is not extraordinary or flavorful enough and slightly dry inside. Tried an upgraded thali. It’s interesting that the bites are preselected according to the main item. (Indian omakase :3) The fried chili prawn is crispy and tasty. The fried onion is quite burnt on the other hand. The dal today is more cinnamon flavored, not as exciting as the last one but still nice. The gulab Jamin is indulgent, dangerously not too sweet and has a lovely grainy texture. And I definitely appreciate that masala chai is not sweetened by default :D wonderful with milk and tea leaves and spices without added sugar.

I had ordered Chicken 65 and Chicken Biryani and both were very average and okayish in taste. Chicken 65 was more like Chicken Pakora, i.e. crispy fried chicken pieces and sauce served separately. Usually the fried chicken pieces are tossed in the sauce and cooked together and not served separately. Also, Chicken 65 is prepared with curry leaves which adds a distinct flavour to the dish. But here, it was served with some other leaves. I have had Chicken 65 in London with curry leaves, so the ingredient is definitely available here, not sure why such an important ingredient was missed by the chef. Coming to Chicken Biryani, it was nowhere close to south indian style biryani. It was just chicken and rice cooked together with very low spices. South Indian biryani is known to be spicy and flavourful in taste but this was anything but biryani. Also, the restaurant is very expensive for no apparent reason. The decor and ambience is very average. In fact, you will feel hot on a warm day, they should keep the door open for ventilation. The plates are too small, more like a desert or starter plate and not fit for serving main course. And the food is strictly average. Overall, I had a very disappointing experience

I have been outside India since 2019 and Indian food especially the South Indian food is something I have been missing the most. Having lived in a few countries and tried the food in the last two years, I have to say this is the best one so far.. ❤ I was totally skeptical when I first stepped into this place because of all the disappointments I have dining and ordering from the different Indian restaurants. And this experience was magical. It brought back a lot of memories. The first time I went there I had tried the panipuri and it literally brought happy tears and the next dish was the Pyaji and it just instantly took me to the tea shops of chennai where I come from. And now it's the second time I am back here and the tea and sambar vada just took me back to my childhood evenings with my grandfather dining after a walk at the restaurants in chennai. My god overall this is like the perfect place for Indian food and they try not to compromise the actual flavours of India by trying to adapt to the foreign taste. An amazing place overall..❤❤❤ I know this is going to be my regular... Keep the taste up..

Wonderful vegetarian/vegan selection at the Tiffin Truck! The crispy okra is delicately spiced, crunchy, light & not greasy at all, chilli paneer is flavoursome with good quantity of paneer & peppers, masala dosa is exquisite, bite size samosas pack a punch, little tikkis deliciously moreish, kale chaat is out of this world - beautifully crispy, crunchy kale & puffed rice smothered in yogurt & sauce! The tea is a must especially on cold days, amazing spices dance on your tongue without being overpowering. I would definitely return when am back in Cambridge - great food & waiting staff just amazing, very helpful imparting knowledge & information, extremely polite & add positive vibes to the ambience. You must try this place!!!
