Another "Real" Birmingham Balti.  Stephen Heap makes a Beef Balti. It looks OK except we don't know the gravy used.  I guess you could find out or just use your own favourite.

One of my current interests is trying different places for breakfast. I quite often pay up to about £25 and consider it fair value for the setting and spread of food on offer. It's mostly abroad, not least because the UK is often so expensive, as in poor value for money. There's a 5 star hotel near Watford called The Grove which offers breakfast for £40 and lunches from £50. The buffets look very good, as can be seen in some youtube videos. I have been meaning to try one of those options but, I must admit, the prices put me off, plus recent health warnings to be more careful about what I eat. The Birmingham Indian place with 2 Michelin stars is even more expensive. I am tempted, though, for early October.

Many thanks for finding the review and posting the link. I agree it increases the chance of me visiting the restaurant. I expect to be visiting Birmingham at the start of October. But £60 or more is so much to pay for a meal, regardless of how good it might be.

Thanks for the video link. I certainly wouldn't spend money for all the fuss and trouble they go to for food which seems more about stylish presentation, rather than anything else. I suggest it's OTT. I'm after great taste and flavour. Even if some of their food tastes amazing, the quantities seems so small, I think it could be frustrating. As someone says in a comment below the video, you risk leaving still hungry.
