I got told to eat at Chutneys in Shaftesbury and by 6.30 they were full, turning tables away (save for my date with a wall). An average curry with excellent bread, probably won’t rush back, especially after they put salad in the curry. Fucking salad. Unbelievable.

£155 for two stars is a relative bargain given what others are charging elsewhere. I think - and have told Aktar - that he should charge more. Two star level should be a very special occasion, it shouldn’t be everyday attainable

Eating kebab, chips and curry sauce whilst watching @stuartdeeley judge the kebab, chips and curry sauce round on Masterchef. I loved the Neelams reference to the guy who burnt everything. Go, Stu.
@MeatOneVegBlog Fire up the Henny Penny.
What’s a t-Rex going to do about it? Wave his little flappy arms about and convince me otherwise?
Two curries this weekend; a Ladypool Rd institution in Popular Balti and Barsana, a newbie in Harborne. Both are awful. Raw powdered spice in generic onion mush. It’s an insult to paying customers.
Lunch was pretty fucking mega, and, given the booze we drank, an absolute steal at £640 for four. @670grams is a great restaurant. Reading this tweet back, I should have spent another £30.
A lot of people say our service is too laid back or familiar but I’ve just seen my general manager sit down with a blind customer for most of his meal, explain every dish and wine, & help him locate things on the table & you know what? I wouldn’t have it any other way.
i’m in bolton train station and i asked for oat milk in my coffee and the lady told me they don’t do that kind of thing here
Superb pre-theatre meal with my infinitely better half at Plates by Purnells - superb value as well!
