One if the biggest things I miss about home is a decent Curry, every other type of cuisine is excellent in Australia, Indian food is terrible.



No place beats Karachi in Bradford for me!



Luckily Rick Stein has a recipe from there in one of his books so I just make my own.

polash= Kerching!!

Indian?



Chinese!

Abid's.. for several reasons . Not in any particular order .

1 : He is a nice bloke and gives you a free beer occasionally .

2 : His son has an ice-cream van and gives free samples occasionally .

3 : The food is excellent .

4 : The waiters and bar staff treat you like you are their best mate .

5 : Abid will come sit at your table and ask if everything is ok . Never had to say no yet and I have been there a few times .

6 : The premises are about the best I have ever seen regarding general appearance and hygene ( unlike EAST up the hill) .

7 : Location and helpful staff mean that getting there and back is trouble free .



etc etc etc



BTW.. I am off to Max's on Saturday

Only because the company I will be in want Chinese food , or I would be at Abid's .

If anyone called "AP" re-registers on this forum to give you advice on which Indian Restaurants to visit then simply ignore everything he says, your opening phrase "I need to impress this lass" immediately nullify's his opinions on Indian Restaurants.

for me its definatly Akbars then Aargra.

I would stay well away from sheesh some of the worst curry I have had has come from there. One of the Southstander watchers sent two dishes back in one night.



what do they call that place on eastgat above Sta travel. That was very different but very good.

Listen the Sheesh is a good place to take the wife but I am not sure it would be anywhere near the top of my list to take anybody I wanted to impress... come on, it is a curry house (a good one mind) but not a restaurant.



You clearly need to learn lots more about women!



You have said yourself that the food at Mumtaz is good and it is relatively reasonable and it is a nice restaurant with a nice ambiance in a nice spot! The Sheesh is on Kirkstall Road opposite an 'entertainment' complex!



Anyway, it would appear that he has settled for the retaurant in the Alea which G1 has heard is very good and I trust him when it comes to retaurant reviews!



Akbars is also very good, so we agree on that.

IMO Mumtaz isnt a patch on Aagrah.



I like Shebab on East Gate



Akbars = Dog sh[i1[/it



Amans on Morely si spot on and i belive they have opened one on on Selby Road?

Its a bit out of the city centre, but I always like the Rushee on Stainbeck lane.

Great place to go........































If you want the s the next day.....

What tariq's in Headingley like now?



Polash is very good.

The one in Alea casino comes highly recommended as does the Mumtaz Clarence dock.



Of course you could always jump on a bus to Bradford???

I still vaguely remember that "thread", wasnt the keywords "whitey elitest curry?"

and anywhere with cutlery is not allowed on the list?
