Would be nice to have a few quality ales in Itchy Pig and then stroll across the road for a top notch curry... At the minute our go to place is Cafe Indus on London Road. Apparently Cutlers up near Gleadless Town End is closing too... Have you tried Bambukat, just over the road from Balti King? Sells its wares as "Indian Street food" rather than the standard menu list of korma, madras etc but have had some delicious curries from there.

Tbf it was about 4 years ago and maybe we should give it another go. I seem to remember having a thali plate which wasn't as good as Hungry Buddha in the new market.

WarPig Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I had the worst curry ever in Balti King, disgusting food, surprised it's stayed open as log as it has. They deserve to be gone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungleboy69 Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I know some people who genuinely believed they did great curries... I can only imagine they were half-cut, have dodgy taste buds...or have never been to anywhere decent in their life. Each to their own I suppose...

Owt you ordered just had a different food colouring in. I don’t take any pleasure in seeing someone’s business fail but it’s not a hard luck story - it was rubbish and if they made it decent it would have been a goldmine in that location.

Just about sums that place up perfectly, passing cheaper meat off to customers. I mean how many Indian restaurants serve beef curries? Beef wasn't even on the menu but he claims it was for his Chinese customers. He deserves all he gets for that, and for running such an awful restaurant. No sympathy from me.
