Topic: What are your favourite BIR dishes (poll)

[Peripatetic Phil]

Inspired by George in "Madras 2011", I thought it might be interested to learn what dishes members normally order when dining out in a BIR. I'll kick off with my personal list, in vague order of decreasing preference.

Popaddom : plain
Starters : Reshmi Kebab, Chicken Tikka, Onion Bhaji
Main dishes : Chicken Madras, Chicken Vindaloo, Lamb Dhansak, Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Biryani, Chicken Bombay
Side dishes : Sag Aloo, Mushroom Bhaji.
Rice : Pullao, Mushroom Pullao, Egg Pullao
Breads :  Chapatti, Stuffed Paratha, Keema Nan
Drink : Mango Lassi, Coke, sparkling water

When I was younger I had a taste for Phal on a Friday & Saturday night after the pubs shut, but it always gave me hiccups & the owner of the restaurant said try this (teaspoon of malt vinegar) & my hiccups stopped lol.

Here's my list. I think a forum poll display would be difficult to arrange, given the vast range of options. I used to choose primarily between chicken korma and chicken biryani but I seldom order korma these days. Either it's become less tasty or my own tastes have changed:

Popaddom : plain and spicy (a mix) with the range of dips/chutneys
Starters : Chicken Tikka or Meat Samosa
Main dishes : Chicken Dhansak, Chicken Biryani or Lamb Tikka Jalfrezi
Side dishes : Sag Aloo
Rice : Pullao
Breads :  Plain naan, Keema naan or Peshwari naan
Drink : :Lager

Good choices George! - are we just polling for mainstream dishes or are house specialities included?

Mine:

Popaddom : plain and spicy (a mix) with the range of dips/chutneys
Starters : Chicken Tikka or Sheek Kebab
Main dishes : Chicken Vindaloo, Chicken Tikka Jalfrezi or Madras if I know the BIR is a top one.
Side dishes : Sag Aloo, Onion Bhaji
Rice : Special rice, mushroom rice
Breads :  Peshwari naan
Drink : :Lager

If specialities are included, then it has to be the Chicken Roshney Mirch 

Cheers all
