Looks like my Positive review of this new restaurant and indeed Michael p's have both been removed..

Well the meal was not pretentious and we were not charged a premium for the privilege..and the main meal was on a porcelain plate..

Theye were not ordinary Onion Bhajis they were Falafel Onion barjis.. They are very delicate and light.

I am a very small eater and I managed to scoff the lot.. after my share of the Naans and Hummus.

Mike - i respect your view a bit but given that a certain CC member, who acts with such self importance on this thread about any as he see's it 'non-members' comments/intrusions is on almost any other New Restaurant/ Bar thread with negativity, well, hmmmfff, it's the Lounge.

The problem for me is that this thread should be welcoming to new people who might wish to come along to Curry Club.


I do not want it to be hijacked to pursue gripes and vendettas that can be, and are, played out elsewhere.


The sniping of people, full of their own self importance communicates the impression of a clique and is off-putting. This is true of regulars and those of you who have never been to curry club.


That the thread is in The Lounge is a happy accident of history and demonstrates that this thread has been on the Forum longer than those that are posting.


Please squabble away elsewhere and show some respect to this venerable institution.

Making a comment on our previous CC night out is usual and most people do so when the night has been exceptional.

WTF has that got to do with self importance. ??

Sorry can't understand the above sentence ..

This self importance from a man "the Fox" who jumps in with negativity on any new opening resturant thread


Sorry Mike, it's Friday and the lounge who wants to grow up anyway?

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand).
