Just back from another excellent meal at The Spice Lounge - had the Kakra Chat Puri as starter…read moreagain (yes, I know, I should really try something else) but decided to be more adventurous with the main and had Shahi Chasni - ckicken kebabs in a sweet and sour sauce (no, not like Chinese sweet and sour, more of a mild curry) with fresh herbs and spices. Utterly awesome - recommend soaking up the sauce with a plan or garlic Nan bread, they go really well together. Wife #1 had Chicken Chat for starter (much tastier and more spicy that last time) and Chicken Bhuna which were also both awesome.

I went here last weekend. I've had a lot of curries in my life but I struggle to think of one that…read morewas as good as this. I had bhajis for starter which were cooked to perfection, but it was the main course of Afghan Chicken that really hit the spot. A huge plateful, and utterly fabulous. My friends all had different dishes and were unanimous in their praise.

This used to be good at one time, now it's gone down hill, we went for a meal ordered popadoms ,…read morestarters a main and a drink got the drink got the popadoms waited 15 mins they came over with our main we said what happened to the starters, the waiter said did you order starters what did you order, had to tell him again waited another 15 mins they where awful so we asked him to take them back . We had waited so long this spoilt the ambiance so so cancelled the main and left. Go to Amans much better this one sucks.

Shahbaaz Curry Cottage has been a favourite of mine for a good few years now - being a minute away…read morefrom my parents house, it also doubles up as our local Indian takeaway. The restaurant is, as the name suggests, in a small cottage that has quite recently been extended to cater for the demand for a good curry house in the area. There must be no more than 15 tables in the entire place, which makes it nice and cosy - which I like. I have been here countless times, and each time I cannot fault the service. The waiters are friendly, and the same guys have worked there for years, so if you're local and go there frequently they remember your name - which is always nice. The food is authentic Indian food, with a varied choice of curries on the menu. One of their starters - Prawn on Puree - is my favourite and I often order this as larger portion for my main meal, which they are always more than happy to do for me. The prices are very reasonable here, and if you like them on Facebook they'll often post print-off vouchers on their page for customer discounts and freebies. They also run deals on certain nights, where you can get 3 courses and a beer for £15. Last week when I visited, the service was abnormally slow.. And something I haven't experienced before. Granted it was a busy Friday night but maybe they were a waiter down or something. The service is usually faultless - this must have been an off night but I wouldn't like to mark them down for it. I'll continue to go here, either with family or with friends - and if you're in the area it's definitely the best place for Indian food for a good few miles.

We were AMAZED by this place!…read more It was probably made even better by the most recent one we had being poor too, and also, thumbs up for 5* hygiene rating (yes, I'm one of those people who checks). Eleven of us ordered food, including enormous tubs of rice, giant and entirely amazing onion bhajis (definitely get some of these- big scotch egg sized tasty globes). Everyone had something different, and there was a bit of sharing too, everyone was happy. The hotter ones have a reasonable kick, and a surprisingly good one was the shampan- picked out of morbid curiosity, with mozzarella cheese on top, and not swimming with fat. We were all very full, and the Naans still tasted nice the next morning!
