Khan Saab - Parrs Wood

Gary Jordan's July 2005 monthly curry was held at the newly opened 'Khan Saab' Indian Restaurant, located at the Parrs Wood Entertainment Complex in Didsbury.

This was an unusual location for an Indian Restaurant and offered a truly different class of venue for the Curry Council to sample.

The restaurant was designed by Andrew Wallace Architects and Interior Designers and offered the curry council a modern and minimalistic place to enjoy our curry. This is a far cry from some of the dull "curry houses" that appear on the Rusholme Curry Mile, which more than often offer drab flocked wallpaper, cigarette burned carpets and vulgar gold trimmings.

It is rumoured that the design and building work cost over £500k and this is truly reflected by the restaurant's chic interior.

The location of the restaurant (in an entertainment complex that includes a bowling alley and a cinema) meant that there were also a small number of family groups dining in the restaurant during our visit. This unfortunately meant that the Khan Saab was not really a suitable venue for our often adult orientated curry chaat.

The restaurant offered a pleasing aesthetic and also great service. A large and varied menu was available. The food sampled by the Curry Council was enjoyed by all.

[Update : 13/03/2008 : This restaurant has since closed and is now currently occupied by the Chiquitos Restaurant).
