The atmosphere is great and relaxed
-
I ordered the Stir fried lamb shish with noodles which was rich in flavour and was also a little bit spicy
-
The lamb was succulent and was well diced into the noodles
-
Silk Road has made a name for itself serving up fantastic Chinese fusion dishes traditional to the northern Chinese province of Xinjiang at prices which are so affordable
-
Reading through the menu is an exercise in self discipline as the combination of incredible sounding dishes and impossibly cheap prices makes it impossible to settle on a "
-
The stir fried lamb shish with hand pulled noodles
-
I wish I had as dish after dish was just consistently beautiful and packed with flavours and aroma which would excite any tastebud
-
My highlights were the lamb shish dishes which were both a masterful use of cumin and chilli
-
These dishes are SPICY so handle with care
-
Go for the Luxury noodles (hand pulled noodles with special lamb
-
Vegetables and a fried egg) which is as good as the name suggests
-
Saying there was a one hour wait
-
From just after we arrived the place was full and stayed that way all night
-
I had heard that the menu was quite short but it was still long enough for it to take us quite some time to decide on which dishes to choose
-
Shredded tripe with onions and chillies (a wild card dish at Stephen&rsquo
-
3.00 and each dumpling was very generously filled
-
Slightly chewy dough with juicy pork and finely shredded celery inside
-
That sauce was fantastic &ndash
-
The first bite had quite a kick to it but it was manageable if you didn't eat too many of the fresh chillies at once
-
It came out as we were halfway through the pork
-
The onions and tripe were pale and drab with the fresh green chillies the only vibrant and inviting thing on the plate
-
Fatty lamb dusted with cumin (I think)
-
A massive bowl was brought to the table full of a steaming brown sauce
-
The broth had a very savoury taste to it that was incredibly more ish
-
This was also where the heat lay and it was easy to forget this when you were spooning it out
-
Ve ever seen) were dumped into the plate
-
In my humble opinion was a fantastic creation
-
D ingested so many chillies I think I was beginning to feel a bit spacey
-
Perfect to order several dishes and share with the people you go with
-
Silk Road (Camberwell) is not very big so you may have to wait a little before you get a table
-
So when you go there it is really because of the food
-
Everything was really delicious but the dishes don't come at the same time (something we could observe in other chinese places)
-
All the chinese places we went were really good and a cheap choice
-
The dumplings were quite big and a good generous portion
-
The skewers were one of my favourites
-
We had the lamb skewers which were nicely marinated with lots of delicious spices
-
The red snapper fish skewers were really tasty and moreish
-
The big plate/bowl chicken was another favourite for us a huge plate of chicken in a warm and comforting broth
-
Apparently there are queues outside during peak meal times
-
The prices are cheap for London standards
-
So it's no surprise it's such a big hit with the foodies
-
The stir fried lamb shish so full of spicy cumin chilliness I can feel each of my cells bursting with life the more I eat
-
We'd been before for a friend's birthday and I was so blown away I'd forgotten the finer details the only thing I could remember is that it was bloody amazing
-
Silk Road serves food from China's Xinjiang province in the country's north west meaning a brilliant fusion of more Middle Eastern flavours with Chinese methods
-
We had a table booked for 8 at 8pm but 8.20 we were still standing waiting for our table
-
It was hot in there and the tea we were given by way of an apology by the time we sat down soothed my anger
-
Grilled dumplings with lamb and onion were tasty
-
Slightly sweet sauce and chillies it is bizzarrely good but no amount of me saying that will get you close to knowing how good it is
-
Next came Chicken with Green Chilli (£
-
7) that dances in front of the eyes with its bright green and red colours of the chillies before the party moves into the mouth
-
The noodles are studded with chunks of lamb marinated in cumin and chilli in such vast quantities it should be totally overpowering
-
Made even more special with its seasonings
-
I forget which ones so sated and misty eyed I was by the end of it
-
This restaurant is cheap and cheerful
-
The majority of their dishes are rather spicy
-
It is also best to bring cash as both times I've been there the card machine "
-
Having heard reports of hour long waits mid week we booked as it was a Saturday
-
Good job as the place was absolutely packed
-
I had high expectations but Silk Road is SO over rated
-
Other staff were timid but polite
-
Half of it was chunks of fat
-
The fillings were not flavourful
-
The Middle Plate Chicken was a mixture of boiled chicken and potatoes in a watery and unflavourful broth
-
Slightly sweet and mildly spicy and was a fair portion size
-
The only good thing about Silk Road is the low prices for London standards
-
Plenty of fast food places on this road but Silk Road (Camberwell) was a stand out chinese restaurant
-
The noodles were hand made and super tasty and the charcoal grilled meat and fish skewers were fantastic
-
I booked and was glad I did
-
The soup noodle and skewers are the best dishes of the night
-
It supposes to be the signature dish of Xinjinag Ciusine and it turned out to be completely wrong the dish was very tasteless
-
Boiled lamp is in good portion but again
-
Lamb skewer and homemade cabbage are pretty good
-
If you want to try XinJiang cuisine which I really recommend then here is the wrong place
-
Few sit down restaurants are as inexpensive as Silk Road
