I am sorry to hear that you did not find a decent curry in Glasgow, but it I would expect as much. I'm just outside of Glasgow and in my town there are only two places out of dozens that are worth ordering from. I find your comment about ginger spot on. In the two places I buy from the chefs are a lot older than in most places, perhaps just more experienced or more old school I dont know. It does worry me that when these chaps retire I won't know where to find a good bhuna within ten miles of my home.
I gather though that I am not alone and would bet most members here would say that, regardless of where they live, it is getting increasingly difficult to find a good curry.

 ???..if you are meaning that you would expect a member of this forum would not find a decent in Glasgow, that wouldn't surprise me at all  ;D

Agreed again most members would probably say that. But not the people who keep them afloat

If anyone can't find a "good" curry in a city of nearly 70 m2 & "curry houses" in every other street, they  may need to examine themselves & not the food.

I tried 4 different curries from two takeaways in different areas

Not exactly a mori poll

This guy has been in a few though.

Or they may need to check their location; a city of nearly 70 square metres is pretty difficult to find :)

Is the punjabi a sit in or takeaway. I will happily drive to sit in, but 40-50 min round trip for a takeaway it would have to be something really worth it.
cheers

It's been a while since I've had a Glasgow curry but worked up near Inverness a few years ago and had an extremely good lamb curry from a small village takeaway.

I learned a long time ago to be very patient with Asparagus sufferers. It's a typing mistake Phil :)

May give Punjabi a try next weekend gazman, I've heard its pretty good.
Going off piste, I would recommend Yadgar in Calder Street Govanhill. Don't be put off by the naf shop front & seriously iffy area.
Its the one of only a few places in Glasgow I've seen Asians buy Asian takeaway. The Lamb karahi is off the scale flavourwise.
Prices seem higher than they maybe should though.

Well, that was very clear, but what is less clear is what it was intended to read ...
