Three Falcons is an Indian restaurant located in Paddington, near to the mammoth rail station and the Lord's Cricket Ground. If you're looking for a great meal before boarding your train, or need somewhere to rest your legs after a busy day of sightseeing around the city, head to Three Falcons, and dive into the world of rich, storied Indian cuisine.
The menu itself is a thing of beauty, designed to look like a newspaper, with the title The Delhi Times. Starters include stuffed padron peppers with chapati potato filling, served with green coriander chutney and puffed rice, some crispy gram flour crackers with sweet yoghurt, and thighs of chicken coated in a cashew nut paste, slightly smoked in the tandoor. To follow, there are plenty of favourites to choose from, like the old Delhi butter chicken with a blend of cashew cream and plum vine tomatoes, a buttery shahi paneer and matar keema with minced spiced lamb mixed with whole spices and seasonings, and blended with fried onions and tomatoes. If you've got family or friends in tow who aren't too keen on spicy dishes or curries, there's an English menu to order from. You'll find tender fried chicken with pickles and chilli mayonnaise, battered fish with garden peas and tartare sauce, and a mixed leaf salad.
Up for pudding? Try the gulab jamun cheesecake, creamy kulfi pistachio or the paneer rasmalai. The highly skilled chefs at the Three Falcons are passionate about blending centuries-old recipes and methodologies with modern flair. The team are particularly proud of the fact that their butter chicken has been rated the best in London, and continue to impress visitors by creating what they describe as edible art.
