I just don't trust any business occupying the ground floor of a railway bridge tunnel like that. An arch you can just about get away with....

Takeaway delivered from the Kamran in Halifax last night (via Just Eat).

Shami kebabs ok but no better than that.
Popadoms quality. Complimentary dips and salad too.
Garlic Naan, pretty good. Not overboard with the garlic but enough to taste it.
Keema Madras curry tasted ok for a takeaway but nowhere near a restaurant quality. Nowhere near hot enough for a Madras and a bit too much oil but it wasn't bad.

Aside from that it was almost cold when it arrived, but I think that's more with me being on the cusp of the delivery area so it takes longer to get here!

On the large downside, I have now had 4 visits today and I'm not convinced it's over yet.

Kamran's is more somewhere to go before a night out I would say! It's decent without being owt special.

Heard Sultan Mahal is one of the better ones in Fax centre but I've not tried it myself just recommended by a friend, I've got a truly awesome curry house 86 paces from my front door.

Akbars on Leeds Road.

Chicken Tikka and Keema Balti.

Oh my, heaven.

That's also the dish I've got the last couple of times I've been there. Say what you want about the restaurant, but that dish is out of this world.

Drove past the K2 on Lumb Lane yesterday afternoon at 4pm and the shutters were down. I'm hoping that it was shut and not closed down permanently. Does anyone know anything? I'd be devastated if it's gone, we've been going there for years and years.

There's one near me too, someone spilled one on the floor and it looked like dog dirt

Needs to be cheaper if its to work as a model

We tried to get into Akbars this week and it was rammed, so we went to Zouk instead. This was the decision of the decade. The special karahi I had was one of the best curries I can remember. Everyone had top notch food, it was spot on.

I miss Bradford Curry Brick Lane just isn't the same, even with the 'deals' you're offered by the blokes touting for business outside.

Thanks to whoever recommended the 3 Singhs on this board.
Took the wife there last night and enjoyed a fantastic meal.
Started off with Malia Chicken and Paneer Tikka (both quite spicy) followed by a Saag Paneer and a 3 Singhs special.
Washed down with a bottle of Lanson.
Absolutely lovely.
Only slight downside is that the inside looks a bit working mens club.
