One of the more attractive restaurants in the little India of Drummond Street, Chutneys is renowned for the excellent value of its lunchtime buffet - vegetarian, tasty and cheap. And with 130 seats over two floors you can pretty much guarantee a place - despite its popularity. In the evenings, dining resumes a more traditional format, but the food is still just as delicious and just as good value. Main courses are helpfully split into regions, with thalis (a selection of four small curries, chosen to suit your palette) from Gujarati and a choice from southern India's Madras region, including various dosas - crisp, giant pancakes made with rice and lentil flour, with a variety of fillings and accompanying chutneys. The pesticide-conscious will also be pleased to see that Chutneys also has a range of organic wines. Diners should note that it's buffet only on Sunday.
