They are more likley to shut the feed down than contribute once they realise the level of scrunity they are getting.

Has anyone managed to sample one of their curries yet ?

Highly unlikely considering the amount of free publicity they're getting!

the "young chappy" restaurant manager would be an ideal contributing member for me - fingers crossed.

there's no way the feed will be shut - he's been working on it for years (bbc video is much better quality though).

My hope is that this first BIR webcam will set the cat among the pigeons. Hopefully we'll start to see many more webcams from BIRs because of it. And by the way, didn't the other curry website claim to be having a webcam from their BIR - what happened to that?

Agree, and like his comments they have nothing to hide...

it does set the cat among the pigeons though.

i heard tentatively about this frozen business which the chappie's well against (am sure we are all with him on this).

i friend in brum felt this was happening at his local TA - he could no longer smell the smell the same. the TA had opened another TA not far away and he felt all the cooking was being done at a central location and being shipped by moped. The food was not good for whatever reason.

the "frozen" adds another dimension and slippery slope to the supermarket for me.

I think that the BIR trade will live no matter how good
a few home cooks become with the help of video's etc.
I don't think the BIR should be concerned, After all we could
all easily make pizza from scratch but how many peeps actually do,
yes i know some of us here will ;)

Not many of my friends cook much, they all enjoy quality
food but when it comes to doing some work in the kitchen
its mostly a no no, if its a one off special event even
then it comes out of jars or from a takeaway to table.

Long Live The Bir Cam :-)

Hi,

Quite a few posts and threads about this but i will post here and hope
it gets read/moved...

The first two containers in the video are not coconut and sugar,
but Cocount and Almond powder.

I have seen the two sitting together before
in other BIR kitchens.

yes/no ?


That's interesting, I'll go with that. As I posted in the recordings thread, but thought one was sugar, so what do you think the clear bottled sauce is that's added and do you think it's cream added when he turns?. If we can work that out we almost have a BIR Korma recipe on our hands plus the video to go with it.

Most definitely its single cream chowie also agree with Graeme about coconut and almond powders unsure what the clear bottle is mind.

I fear this is potentially quite a divisive issue. I'm with Jeera on this. I think it was a very bad idea to contact them and I hope that it's not shut down as a result.

Right guys, your forum needs you! ;D

Who is within travelling distance of this place? Please please please get down there and get a fairly bog standard curry such as a Madras. This whole topic is useless unless the curry is decent.

Some pictures of the curry would also be nice. Who's able to do this?

Cheers,

BB.
