    I'll turn up, but despite living in Farsley (Pudsey ish) for 8 years I've only ever had two nights out in Bradford and both times I saw someone seemingly having been mugged, folks tear-arsing after some ahem, Asian lads screaming 'he's got me purse'.....

    In my youth my motto would have been get involved - now I'm older my motto is don't get involved.

    Be aware competition in Bradford is fierce so read all TA reports with large pinch of salt. All I can say is that all the meat is cooked on a stonking great Chargrill and tastes fantastic, and that was just lunch

    The lasagne I ordered was very chewy and cheesy and had very less meat. Flavouring of the chicken stir fry wasn't very good either. Only upside was the service
    Who the fu<k goes to a grill restaurant to order a Lasagne? AndyW's mum?

    Went there recently, the ones on manningham lane like the mumtaz etc. don't serve alcohol.

    Stick to aagrahs or akbars (somewhere outside of Bratfor')

    When I was a kid, it was Chinese restaurants. But kebab shops weren't really a thing in most towns until the mid-to-late 1970s, so we had to take our targets of casual racism where we could find them
