      Looks tops .

      Babur is similar in that its a modern Indian type place.
      They do the best Chicken Chettinad I have ever had though

        I note they serve Dosa. I got quite fond of that when in Chennai. The HBoS bobs were obsessed with dosa and had to go to London to get proper ones. Good job they don't know about this place eh?

          Funnily enough it is exactly what Babur serves with their Chicken Chettinad,

          The curry and rice is underneath it, a big Dosa the size of a china mans hat

            Thinking that Bradford, Sheffield, Manchester and Leeds etc are "up North" is like thinking the West Coutry is Devon and Cornwall

            Bonkers!

            The real West Country in England is Cheshire/Shropshire/Herefordshire simply because you can't go further West without being in err.. East Wales which last time I looked was another country

            So up North = Newcastle Carlisle, then go any further and you are at the mercy of the Scots where everywhere I have mentioned is down South.
            So now I am worried, am I being deceived, just how much sugar is really in a spoon full!

              They are all North and West from where I am.

                Does that get you "special access" to the back room?

                  He's a Saffer actually! Bah'tap is a craft-beer type pub, not bad now, used to be the Prince of Wales, which was bad and served slop. Always being closed down due to fighting/drugs/etc....

                      Aye, i've not been in the Prince of Wales for ages (especially now it's gone...). It was crap. Never sampled Bah'tap so can't really comment. I shall proceed with caution and advise of my findings
