What bean pole likes about The Cochin:
The best (South) Indian restaurant for miles! Delicious authentic flavours and friendly efficient staff. Dhosas are delicious , light , non greasy and huge. Vada and chilli paneer were great starters, and we had king fish special and aubergine curry for main. Both had lovely flavours. View all feedback.
