Authentic Balti Curry Book Update
« on: October 30, 2005, 07:34 PM »
Still waiting! Here is the lastest info,

COMING SOON!  Sometime in the week commencing 31st October, we hope to have news about a launch date.   Unfortunately, there've been a few delays from our original estimated launch, but we're now on course to publish very soon, in time for Christmas.  Those are our latest estimates.  Thanks to everyone who's asked about the book- and we'd also like to thank our publishers for all their help in making it possible.

The emphasis on Balti cooking concerns me so I am unlikely to be one of the first to buy the book. I've never had a 'Ballti' dish which I rated very highly. It was a marketing gimmick and culinary downgrade.  I like standard curry house fare and wish they'd stick to the knitting!

Regards
George

I will order me a copy, Birmingham Balti is a fun food,
maybe not the same as BIR, but im sure there is
something the book can give.
I?m sure there will plenty of discussion once we get to
try the recipes, and as its something other than a famous
indian woman, who knows only trad, trying to pass off something
that?s authentic restaurant, it must be worth a try.
