Bang - Surry Hills

Just across the street from Bang Street Food, Bill’s has moved a few doors down into a new spot (most recently a pop-up restaurant specialising in dishes with avocado, and much longer back than that, the famous Marque restaurant), a new Italian place is due to go into the space that Bill’s vacated, and Flour Eggs and Water seems to be doing well where Besser used to be, which was once, in the mists of time, Billy Kwong’s.

After a false start when we booked here last time, we managed to get in this time and were greeted with wafts of aromatic smells and knew we’d be in for a good meal. The service was friendly and attentive making sure you were attended to. It is a smallish area with a few communal tables but quite cosy. <br/ <br/ We opted away from having the banquet as we wanted to select what we wanted and this worked out well for us. The highlights of our Bangladeshi meal were Biryani Arancini which were crunchy balls of deliciousness. Filled with lamb and rice, this was a great fusion dish. The Honey Roasted Paneer had a fantastic sweet sauce surrounding the cheese. The Oven Roasted Spice Duck came with a very tasty korma sauce. Loved lapping up the sauce with the rice. None of the food is too spicy which suited my palate just fine.<br/ <br/ If you’ve never tried Bangladeshi food, it is definitely well worthwhile trying this restaurant. Thewhereto

Ow! Was absolutely blown away last night. This restaurant sure does live up to its reputation. The dishes chosen last night were fresh, exotic, punchy and packed with true traditional Bangladeshi armours. Each dish was perfectly presented and looked almost to good to eat. The menu is based on share plates so all the more reason to delve into the fabulous dishes created by head chef Tapos.<br/ The dishes we decided to go for were:<br/ BANG Bhaji<br/ Fuska<br/ BANG boti kebab<br/ Tandoori lamb cutlets Honey roasted paneer<br/ Goat curry<br/ So if you are a fan of traditional dishes twisted with fresh produce and full flavoured this is certainly a place you have to try. Thanks again @bangstreetfood<br/ .

Bang an explosion of delicious Bangladeshi street food. That's why you should come here. <br/ <br/ I came here with a group of 6, and we ordered the Bang For Your Buck banquet, which came with delicious Bang Bhaji (fried fritters), lamb cutlets, and the best dish of all.. The goat curry. We loved the goat curry so much that we ordered 2x servings of this. Oh boy were we full after!! One thing that was interesting was that they only served Portuguese wine here, which isn't a bad thing, just interesting as it's a Bangladeshi restaurant. Portuguese wine is pretty damn good though.<br/ <br/ I'm already thinking about my next visit... Great staff, atmosphere, and delicious food!

The goat curry. <br/ <br/ That is all. Just go there to eat the goat curry.<br/ <br/ The rest of the food was unfortunately just okay. I have had authentic Bangladeshi food and the food here was just not as spicy or flavoursome. Some dishes were missing basic salt and pepper seasoning. But the goat curry. I can't even explain it. I could just eat that curry for days. And I have never really liked goat...
