Original Kebabish 154 The Grove Stratford East London E15 1NS

this is part of a small chain in east london which sells a now quite familiar format of indian food  donna kebabs and burgers.  The food in Original Kebabish was acceptable and portions were generous.  I had a Lamb Tikka roll, 2 meat samosas and a portion of Aloo Chat which in this case was really a potato curry.
 
The samosas were larger than average and quite full of meat.  Its a shame they were microwaved rather than fried fresh.
 
The Aloo Chat was a nice warming potato curry with onion in it.  I suspect it was just a packet sauce but it was pleasant enough and not too greasy.
The Lamb Tikka Roll was quite generous and tasty though the lamb was a little tough.  the lamb was however chopped up quite small and combined with peppers and onions.  the lamb had also been marinated in yogurt and spices which makes it lamb tikka.
 
The food at Original Kebabish was acceptable without being in any way outstanding.  those 3 dishes cost me just under £8.00 which is really quite acceptable.  Quality was certainly a step up from that offered by places like the Perfect Fried Chicken places found around Stepney where I live.  most of these should really be avoided.  This being said, I wouldn't travel specifically to visit Original Kebabish though if you are near by it is quite a reasonable option to take.
 
Over all I give this 6 out of 10.  Prices are competetive and food is of reasonable quality without being top class.  Portions are quite generous.
