Ethnic foods, whatever they claim to be, cater for local tastes.
I have been to a lot of different places in the world including China. What is described as Chinese here...........
And different here to what is claimed to be Chinese in Georgia is a lot different to what we get in UK.

I look at hygiene ratings too, Art.
I believe they have to display them where they can clearly be seen.

They do banquets and they will come cook in your home if you are having a dinner party.
It is a family run establishment and they are the friendliest people, always make you feel so welcome in their shop. They usually have freebies on offer to try too, I have yet to have something I haven't liked from there.
Take a look at their website.
What did you order by the way?

The hottest curry I have had was a Sri Lankan chicken curry. I think they purposely made it extra hot because I ordered it at 11pm in the hotel. I was so hungry, I wasn't too bothered.

Don't know what the chips were cooked in but they smelt like the rendering yard at Saltney just outside of Chester where things that had died were rendered into fat some of which I swear was then used in the manufacture of a once half decent toilet soap.
The memsahib cooks good fish though.
Coats good very fresh fish from nearby Southwold with beaten egg then matzo meal (sorta but not breadcrumbs) and deep fries it in peanut oil.
It's a way of cooking fish that I've not seen done in any "normal" fish and chip shops but is often available (at cost!) from chippies in Jewish areas.
