Title: The cut off is 1990...now recommend one!
Post by: Secret Santa on November 24, 2007, 10:21 PM
I definitely used to be able to have a curry with the taste and smell in most places I visited on or before this date. After this, well, as the years go by there appears to be substandard slop served everywhere. Do any of the older memebers know of any places that still make curries like they used to? I don't.

Please recommend one if you know, I'm prepared to travel a bit for it.

Kashmir, Palmerston Road, Southsea, Hants.

Same chef as in late 70s I was told, same flavours, as good as ever. But be sure the best chef is there for any evening when you call, just in case a different chef is on, and it could effect the end results, I guess.

Hi
  The best takeaway in Nottingham is "Bombay Style", 473,Alfreton Road Nottingham.
The owner/chef is Mammood and has been cooking for 30 years
All his curries have the "taste"
It's in the curry gravy

Got to agree with George here, probably the best BIR in the south of England.

Wow! You know it, too! I first went to the Kashmir as a student when their special lunches were 60p each!

I don't know the chef, or even his name. I've never met him. But when I tasted the food there for the first time in a decade, two years ago, we all agreed it tasted exactly as it did in the late 70s. So we told the waiter how pleased we were (I was in a group) and he replied that it was the same chef.

Regards
George

Haldi, if this BIR has the taste, then this is the type of place we would need approached with an offer they cant refuse for guaranteed BIR curries at home.

Thanks for the suggestions chaps. I think I've got more chance of getting to Nottingham than I have of getting to Southsea but you never know.
