Oooooooo iv completely forgot (veggies) not alot of restaurants cater for veggie hmmm have to think about this one thanks for the reminder your tops

 

How could you forget vegetarian food? India probably has more vegetarians than any other country and a rich and varied vegetarian cuisine. You say not a lot of restaurants cater for vegetarians - have you never been to India?

except bilash takeaway in sheffield can you name anyother indian/bangladeshi or pakistani restaurants that cater for vegetarians? (that have more then just a little selection at the back of there menu and be honest becouse i will check up ) im doing a bangladeshi restaurant as i said in my previuse posts its just makes it easyer to say indian so everybody understands (as alot of people dont know the diffrence? ) and back in 2003 i have been to india pakistan and bangladesh when we did our restaurant in chesterfield. also alot of people say they like indian food? how ever alot of people in my point of view have never eaten indian food (as most of the restaurants in uk are bangladeshi or pakistani) and before you say it lol in the asain community we call indian restaurants (indian) bengali restaurants (bengali) and pakistani restaurant are called (kashmiri) they are not put in one catogory (untill everyone knows the diffrence unfotanately im stuck with the indian lable ) iv put some links on so every one can be a little wiser

You're right, that's why I'm a greedy vegetarian rather than a chef or restaurant manager Anyway, good luck with your venture, I think you've taken so much potential customer feedback on here you're bound to get it right! Hope it works out for you

 

its a brilliant idea i did think about it about doing a indian tappas in town a few years ago (grate minds think alike hey lol) but couldnt commit myself iv got a good boss behind me whos a good man and a brilliant chef im sure he will love it and like i said think it will make a grate day menu so well done both of you for the reminder.

I think you make some valid points. The hygiene is a big question for me. Maybe if the buffet was served by servers it would solve the problem, but when everyone helps themselves, I remember the stories of what they used to find in the bins in the scoop and save places!

 

I like my food to be served by an establishment I trust, preferably with a good star rating from the local authority scores on the doors program.

 

So, in my opinion, if it was served by servers, it is something I might try.

 

do you mean buffet served by a server? that will possibly get rid of the hygien issue but still have the quality issue?

Most 'Indian' restaurants have the option to serve the vegatable side dishes as a main course.

 

I don't mean to give you a hard time and I'm aware that most Indian restaurants in the UK are run by Bangladeshi's. In fact I look for this as a sign of quality as our British idea of a good Indian restaurant is actually a Bangladeshi restaurant.

 

I love those 'traditional' restaurants, the kind that would have had flock wallpaper and Bombay Duck in the past. What I don't like is what's called 'modern Indian cuisine' which is usually bland and tasteless.

 

I think those restaurants are usually run by 2nd generation immigrants who have lost touch with their original cuisine and culture. I'm not a fan of Pakistani cuisine either, Bangladeshi is definitely the best.

 

Where and when is your restaurant opening. I might come for a meal.

Lol Bombay duck very hard to get hold of these days it sounds like you know what your talking about (if evei didn't remind me) I would have probaly just done that for my vegi selection but thanks to her veggies will have a good selection to chose off we should be open in the next few months

 

IF ANYONE WANTS TO FOLLOW THE PROGRESS OF THIS RESTAURANT THEY CAN ON FACEBOOK 'JUST TYPE IN CUTLERS SPICE'

The "original" cuisine of the 70s curry houses bears little resemblance to traditional bangladeshi food.. but thats what makes the world of curry such a strange beast as "trad" UK curry is very different to "trad" bangladeshi or pakistani food - which would probably get short shrift from the "trad" lager-ed up curry house goer...
