VIRTUAL KITCHEN E3,

75 Goodmayes Road, Ilford IG3 9UB, United Kingdom

"I went here today for breakfast and even though they were really busy, the customer service was top notch! I ordered the pancakes which were delicious! And hubby got the full English, both meals came with hot drinks. Plus owner even gave us free masala tea too! Big portions for very affordable prices! Def would recommend."

"Have driven past this place several times but got the chance to try it yesterday and I’m glad I did. The interior has a few quirky design features which were cool, the service was friendly and prompt. The Full English was really good and something I would definitely go back for (although I have heard the Desi breakfast is even better). Slightly off topic but if you like a spicy sauce then ask for their chilli sauce, it’s not like the standard fare you get at other places; it’s really good (they don’t do this anymore and their current chilli is just generic). Looking forward to trying the other items on their menu when I next visit. Update: Just tried the Desi breakfast and it lives up to the hype. This is now firmly my new breakfast place of choice Further Update: Moving from 5 to 3 stars now as breakfast portion is smaller but the main thing is the taste of the (Full English) breakfast isn’t as good as it was before and merely mediocre. The French toast/ stack would always be ordered with our breakfast but not now as it isn’t very nice anymore. Their breakfast muffin was simply below par and massively disappointing. However, their Big Mac equivalent is decent and worth a repeat order."

"Visited recently. Cafe decor is a bit too dark for my liking but nevertheless great atmosphere, menu and staff. My only other criticism is that there was a small piece of egg shell in my scrambled eggs. The cafe is under new management. I will certainly visit again."

"This place looks very promising and the menu is something that most definitely compliments my taste buds. The best of both English and desi breakfast and really competitive price is very appealing to most I assume. Sadly it all fell apart when I tasted the desi items. at first the staff were all welcoming and understandably the long wait was justified as they had less staff with a staff wanted post on the shop window. The real gripe for me was the desi scrambled eggs and the daal. They were not to my expectations. Those were the easiest dishes you can make and they got it wrong. Mainly the daal as it did not have enough tadka so it tasted a bit bland, and the eggs were very runny and tasteless. When asked the staff were very apologetic and explained that the main chef was on holiday so the dishes were not up to scratch. The entire staff were very polite and kept asking if we got everything. The rest of the dishes OK to say the most as nothing jumped out or was that that memorable. I will still highly recommend that everyone go there and check it out and I do believe that this place has high potential to be a great place one day."
