The 1875 restaurant on Menston station has re-opened after the chefs have been away in India over summer. It is very different to most Bradford curry houses in that it is more authentic Indian than standard Bangladeshi or Mirpur. Similar to Prashad but they do meat as well. I've only had a take away so far which was excellent if pricey, particulalry the accompaniments. I had a long chat with the owner while I waited, they are trying some really innovative events. http://www.the1875.com/index1.html

They've invested heavily in the refurbishment as you can see. The biggest danger is all the buggers on the train roof, quite dodgy when there is overhead power.

Off for an afternoon (week on sat) in Saltaire then train to Bradford, Sparrow, FC (as we've had to put on emails as the full name gets blocked on mates work email) then Punjab based on recomendations on here
Looking forward to it, will have to make sure we've had enough beer prior to curry but shouldnt be a problem

Off to Prashad tonight for the first time since it became famous.

Anyone tried the re-furbed Sheesh Mahal on Westgate yet? It looks brilliant but when I went down one Saturday tea-time before work they weren't quite open so had to go to the Punjab instead due to time constraints. It was an excellent second choice. The best 'soft' shamis around and I can heartily recommend the Meat Chana.

If anyone reads Tyke Taverner (CAMRA) the Bradford branch do an annual tour of the regions pubs with afficionados from this country & beyond. SOme bloke from down south writes an amusing review of the 5 days or so. Every year the last sentence of each day's report is always "Stopped off in the Sheesh". I know it's a favourite of FA.

Prashad fantastic as ever, slightly more expensive & crockery a bit posher. £350 for 21 of us, only 2 or 3 had puddings. Different tastes & textures to what you generally get elsewhere. Still extremely friendly, the older of the female chefs came out & sat & chatted with us for about half hour which was a nice touch.
