I wouldn't go here when urban choola is nearby, and ashoka and lavang are a short taxi ride away. Bloody hell... proper disappointed. I was really hoping that we'd have a good local curry house to go to after a few pints in the Greystones or Itchy Pig. It looks lovely from the outside but maybe style over substance... I'll stick t' Cafe Indus on London Road. Just got back from a pub crawl down Eccy Rd and an old school curry there afters. Food delicious as always with lovely friendly staff and good vfm. To be fair Urban Choola is good when you want something a bit posh. I'd probably appreciate it more without having had a drink...

bungleboy69 101 #182 Posted December 29, 2023 Does anyone know what's happening with Jaflong taking over the old Honeycomb bar on Ecclesall Road? Nothing seems to have been done to the place since they announced their intentions to relocate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

There was an article in star other day - they are moving back into their old place on Northfield road soon. in the interview they said they still had plans for the honeycomb venue but it was taking longer than expected due to something to do with lease from memory. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Colin Foster 72 #184 Posted December 31, 2023 Ordered from them last night, great to have them back! From a purely selfish perspective I hope they stay where they are as it's less than 2 minutes away from me 😆 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I tried Manzil for a takeaway recently and it was to be honest very good, although it could have done with a bit more heat for me. The guy in there said the chefs were from the Mangla so they should know what they are doing. Perhaps a bit pricey for a takeaway but then my favourite Kashmiri Aroma is too.

Really? I wonder if it was the chefs from before it changed hands or after? It was never anything like as good after the new owners took over. I have heard a rumour that Manzil got a new chef(s), maybe this sort of backs it up. If we've got the old Mangla style food on Eccy Road then I'd be a happy man. The old Mangla snap was quite spicy so from what trin said in previous comment maybe they've changed their old recipes. I've just done nearly 4 weeks backpacking in India so I'll be giving curries a swerve for a while in the UK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
bungleboy69 101 #188 Posted April 1 Just been sent this article off Facebook.... after 2 disappointing curries this weekend near Bradford, I'm definitely off there next weekend...

Their wealth of experience and passion for Indian cuisine perfectly aligns with our vision to reclaim our status as a culinary landmark in the city.

The curry house was on Spital Hill for almost 40 years and built up a huge following for its traditional Indian and Kashmiri dishes which you can now enjoy at Manzil Spice.

They're open early doors from 5pm too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
