Hunt begins for Curry House of the Year

A Balti or Bhuna? Spicy and hot, to mild and creamy, there’s nothing us Brits love more than a curry, and with so many Indian restaurants in the UK everyone has their favourite! Now we want you to tell us which local Indian curry restaurant gets your vote.

It could be because of the fresh and innovative cuisine, traditional style dishes, select and exclusive dishes you can find in only the restaurant you use. Perhaps you love the friendly staff, the traditional style or the outrageous décor of the restaurant. Maybe it’s so much more than a place you go to for a curry.

We have drawn up a shortlist of restaurants and eateries that will compete for the title of Curry House of the Year 2016. Entries will be printed in paper for the next 2 weeks where you can then vote for your favourite.

So who is deserving of a place in our top ten?
