I'll give it a while to see how it develops. It will depend on how many members you get.
One problem all forum sites have is that there is a threshold of activity. When the site activity is below this threshold, even the keenest participants look in less and less. Once it gets over the threshold, it will generate a self sustaining level of interest.
I'd certainly like to say thank you to the site's owner(s) for setting it up.

uk.food+drink.indian has led the way for a good few years but seems to have tailed off recently, however I believe this may be due to a few overbearing Know-it-alls who have joined in the last couple of years and constantly ridicule anybody whose own views are not the same as their own.
Don't forget, that those people tend to ridicule each other as well.
It's rather sad, reading through the archives, to see two people, both of whom seem quite knowlegable and helpful, tearing at each other's throats.
Mind you, I'm an argumentaive b****r myself at times.
