No, I have never ever tried Hilsa fish before. I don't know how strong its flavor is. From what I have read, I think it is the go to fish for bengalis.

Thanks. So the best way to go is frying chunks of the fish, the adding them to a curry later on.
Any BD restaurant in J. Heights such as HaatBazaar or Jamaica such as Sagar should have one of those dishes available for a day.

Cool, I might take a visit up there next week. I'll post pictures and write a detailed report if time is on my side

Had Mixed grill at a Turkish and it was amazing. I find their grills less greasier than Lebanese mixed grills. Also I find in london, Turkish restaurants make their own bread while Lebanese give supermarket made.
Turkish falafels are poor though and the Lebanese make it much better. Also the salad too
I hate Turkish food unless I am in Turkey. Over ehre, it's just grill grill and effin grill !
Meat is not marinated and boring grilled meat is not tasty.
During my stop over at Doha the hotel had a buffet, ate some gracious delicious kebabs falls under the category of Afghan Kebabs along with some other quality treats. Interestingly not sure whether mid-travel fatigue or already jet lagged, those Bakhlava type sweets tasted way better.
The Kunafe I have at the Turkish restaurant I go to his heavenly. The Kunafe itself is warm and the scoop of ice cream is cold. 6 of us share one as after a heavy meal very difficult to finish it off alone.
