"An excellent paratha is something we’d go out of our way for. And Ganapati, a cosy South Indian restaurant on Holly Grove, has exactly that. There’s a menu of exciting things like savoury lentil doughnuts soaked in yoghurt, poppadoms with spicy garlic pickles, and our favourite thing here: the thali. Come on a weekday afternoon for one of the most filling, delicious lunches around for under £15. Our favourite place to sit is the greenhouse-like area that feels like it’s outside while being totally covered. When it’s raining, there are few things more therapeutic than tucking into their meaty chembra lamb curry while hearing the rain hit the glass roof.
