Been yet again. The nicest staff you will ever meet. They are happy to talk curry. I got a few tips tonight. Brilliant curry.

The wise looking chef I mentioned before was on again (head chef). Best chef in Edinburgh IMHO. I actually met a guy from my previous favourite takeaway the Shapla who outright told me this guy is the best chef in Edinburgh. I quite believe it.

They gave me some amazing lamb mice / spiced little fritters while I was waiting - they're trying it out as a starter. They were lovely. I could taste lamb, fresh chilli, mint, fenugreek seed, fresh coriander and I think lemon juice. I think they were coated in gram flour and deep fried. Awesome.

If you're in Edinburgh, try this takeaway! 10/10!

Hey BB,

Sounds like a great place. If I'm ever in Edinburgh, you bet I'm searching for this thread.

Did you get any useful hints/tips that might help us home-chefs out?
