Towards one end of Auburn's bustling high street is one of the best-value dining experiences around. Khan Baba, said to be former cricketer Imran Khan's fave, offers first-rate and wide-ranging Indian and Pakistani dishes with a smart interior and keen service. Traditional favourites such as the lamb rogan josh and chicken jalfrezi are above average, each fragrant with spices and featuring tender fall-apart meat. Try the light and creamy pepper fish: sauteed fillets flavoured with crushed pepper, lemon juice and onion sauce. End with a sugar hit care of traditional sweets, gulab jamun (dark-brown milk dumplings in rose-scented syrup) and ras malai (dumplings in sweetened milk).
