New indian takeaway opening soon with a new twist

Recommended Posts

What part of India are you (and/or the chef) from? How about some local specialities? What do you eat at home? What do you look forward to eating whenever you return to your home town?


Give us the good stuff, drop the tikka massala and stuffed lemon sorbet, keep the menu simple... and you will have queues out of the door.

But Ganapati has doubled....so perhaps just not vegetarian food.


I'd echo regional speciality. Look at the success of Silk Road in Camberwell as an example of a non-mainstream Chinese restaurant that has taken the previously unheralded Xinjiang cuisine to new heights.


Do that. But for wherever you're from in India. Unless you're from Bangladesh like many "Indian" restaurant workers/owners. In which case be honest and make me the best damn Bengal curries I've never come across before.

From the Bengali section of Foxy's Indian cook book

"In which case be honest and make me the best damn Bengal curries I've never come across"


Yep. I happened on a curry house in the Cotswolds a couple of years ago and we ordered a couple of curries off the Bengali section at the rear of the menu. Absolutely fantastic. When I asked why more 'Indian' curry houses don't do this the mgr suggested they're scared in case the unfamiliar dishes put people off. His retaurant was rammed on. Thursday.

How I pine for that restaurant to be in ED.

For me, it's be simple to decide where to eat if just one bloody curry house would stand-up the same way.

I get the impression this may be Home cooked food delivered to your door.

    • 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). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
