There's a new samosa place opened in the Walnuts in Orpington. As a samosa lover, I'm a bit excited, although I haven't been yet. Anyone been to a branch of Samosa Haus ?

I've seen them in Penge, they do look pretty space age.

If you're having a special outing to go on them, I'd be up for meeting up for it.
