Shall I buy a curry house?

How hard will it be to get the staff?

Impossible, thanks to recent visa cut downs

I'm sure you could recruit from CUK.

Plenty of Chutney Spoon experience here

I am hankering to start a good old boys grill and burger type place.

You talking American Diner or Wimpy style?

What do you get for £13000 besides the name?

i think calling it the "Argy Bargy" might be better...

A whole restaurant with lease, kitchen with equipment i.e. 10 burners worth of hob, tandoor, fridges and freezers and so on. Not flash or massive though, 10 covers I think so most of the business would be takeaway.

Gotta be worth it for asset stripping

Has it already traded - if so what kind of turnover?

Not forgetting the purple lights.

A casual acquaintance of mine invested £500k in a restaurant in NW London in 2004. It was run by his BiL. Who then took the p1ss. His wife backed her brother - causing them to divorce. He tried to sell the restaurant but no takers at any money - he lost the lot.

His wife got the house so he ended up with nothing - now aged 57 working his way up from nothing.

What I am saying is ask how much it would be to set this up from scratch. If there have been issues with environmental health or food quality the goodwill might be worth nothing.

Or it might be a bargain.
