One for Karlos really...........

Manchester centre is not really the place, you need to head to Rusholme's (in)famous "curry mile".

Fortunately, this is a doddle to get to from the city centre (Simply head south along Oxford Road). Not more than 5-10 mins really.

Once there, the choice is quite something.

Overall the standard is quite good but personally I always found Sanam and Al Bilal the best places to eat in. The former does not serve alcohol (or allow it on the premesis) however.

Other places worth a look are Tabak (which does Nepalese food) and Hanaan which is a bit 'posher' looking but the food is no better than the others.

Actually, there are some excellent (food quality) small take outs in back Picadilly but not the place for a proper eat in meal with the missus.

I'm sure GadgetMaster can reccomend some good spots too; this guy knows his curry :-)

Enjoy!

The other one, The Village Curry House, (barbecued lamb chops - mmmmmm..) doesn't allow it on the premises.

I really like Sanam. One of the reasons (as far as I know) they don't sell or allow alcohol is that they cater for the local asian population (which is majority muslim) rather than drunken students which frequent many of the other places along the mile. Consequently the emphasis is on the quality of the food, which has to be up to the standard expected by the locals and not simply ultra hot larger busters :-)

They do a chick pea salad that is one of the most interesting sundries ever. Refreshing, sweet, sour and hot in equal quantities :-D

Let me know if you plan to. If GadgetMaster and Venkman are up for it too, it could be a laugh :-D

Amiga.org curry night - sounds like a great idea to me. :-D

Cracking idea :-D

[Karlos]

I can see it leading to a new site: "Curries of amiga.org" :-D

Perhaps they all visited the local curry house and were told to have a 'lovely, refreshing and mild mangaloo' by some evil scotland supporting waiter :-D

You try playing football with a gut full of napalm...

[Karlos]

Ok, it's official then.

We should have an amiga.org curry night :-D Perhaps a few concurrent ones - Manchester, Glasgow, Sydney :-D

Peckham...
