A last minute change of attendees led to the Council opting for a meal at the Barinda in Cheadle Hulme for this month’s curry, having driven past the restaurant and take away on numerous occasions it was deemed that it was overdue a visit.

This restaurant is unlicensed and has a “bring your own alcohol” policy with no corkage fee for wine or beer. So a quick visit to the shop across the road to buy 10 large bottles of cold cobra for us to enjoy with our meal.

Upon entering we were greeted warmly by the very friendly waiters and seated straight away in the small but cosy restaurant. Our bottles were opened and glasses were brought quickly whilst we pondered over the extensive menu. The usual two popodums each were ordered and were fresh crisp and warm – good start.

Four chicken chaats and one mixed kebab were chosen as starters. Keith rated his mixed kebab as superb. Whilst the general consensus of the chicken chaat was that it was very nice but slightly on the small side and disappointingly came with no side salad.


The main courses chosen were two chicken tikka madras, 2 shaslick karahi chicken and the Loaf disgracefully opted for the chicken korma. The mains were ordered with pilau rice, vegetable rice and peshwari naan’s.

DMS and Marf were very happy with their Madras giving it an unbelievable 10/10. Whilst the shaslick was of a very high standard and the loaf giving his korma a massive thumbs up.

The staff were very friendly and attentive which made for a very enjoyable dining experience, made all the sweeter by the credit crunch busting £15 per head.

The Barinda appeared to be popular with the locals with roughly 20 people in the small restaurant on a Wednesday night. It must be noted that the Barinda gained 5 out of 5 by the Stockport Environmental Health for food hygiene which is highly commendable considering that only 10 businesses in Stockport have achieved the 5 star standard - see for yourself at www.scoresonthedoors.org.uk.

The Curry Council would highly recommend visiting the Barinda restaurant for a sit in meal or take away based on our experience with excellent food, good value, good service and the comfort of knowing they have impeccable kitchen hygiene standards and this member will definitely be visiting again soon.
