Dockmasters House

Dockmaster's House' is Georgian building that has had many past incarnations in Limehouse, London; it's been an excise office, a pub called the Jamaica Tavern, and even the offices for the Dock Superintendent and staff in the Port of London, hence the name.

From February 2009, however, it opens as an Indian restaurant, with dining rooms, three bars and a garden with a stylish conservatory. Sumptuous and spicy Indian dishes include starters of charcoal grilled saffron prawns and green tandoori drumsticks, followed by a main of tamarind baked halibut or coconut chilli beef. Finish with a simple dessert of a selection of sorbets to clear the palate.
