Foodies are flocking to a charming takeaway restaurant in Sydney‘s Inner West to experience its ‘banging’ curries, chip butties and BYO with no corkage fees.
Sitting along the busy Parramatta Road in Camperdown, Derrel’s is a vibrant late-night hangout that serves up a tasty menu of Anglo-Indian dishes.
Head chef Brendan King named the eatery after his Indian grandfather who he remembers cooking up meals such as pork vindaloo and tandoori chicken wings for his 28 grandchildren.
Growing up, Brendan only ever remembers his grandfather in the kitchen which explains the ‘Nana never cooked’ mural above the door on the eatery’s ruby red facade.
Inside, the fit-out is as nostalgic as the menu with the retro tiles, old-school furniture, and a bright pink counter oozing quaint kitschy charm.
