London is a city of layers. Peel one back and you will find another story beneath it, older, grittier, richer in texture. Some of those stories live far away from postcard landmarks and tourist itineraries. One such place is Brick Lane and tucked within it, Bangla Town.
I have always enjoyed Bengali cuisine. It must be my East Indian heritage, as Bengali dishes come very close to Assamese delicacies. We love our fiery fish curries as much as the Bengalis, and are also predominantly rice eaters.
Although we are spoilt for choice when it comes to eating out in the UAE, I have not found many authentically Bengali restaurants in Dubai. Then a friend introduced us to Food Village Restaurant.
