Indian buffet (or excellent restaurant) in TBland?
« on: 06 January 2018, 19:30:13 »
Visiting Northampton (for reasons undisclosed in case MrsGK reads this) next weekend. Looking for a nice Indian buffet or restaurant within half an hour of a certain well known race circuit. Locals, advice? :D

(Her birthday tradition is to go to Cosmo, but I don't think there's one nearby...)

I guess he's currently at Tiffins, or he'd have answered by now. ;D

OP - there are a lot of (what used to be) decent Indians on the road into town, between Hobbycraft and Maplins.  I've not personally used any for a few years, as my mate from that area moved to Milton Keynes.


Obviously, if you get as far as Brakkers, Tiffins is the best all-rounder, Spice Lounge also very good, but Tiffins does the best crisp course. Chilli & Pepper isn't bad either, more of quantity over quality though.

I can recommend in Northampton if you're coming to the town itself. Though out as far as TB I've no idea.

A Tiffins has opened up in Swindon. I went there with some neighbours a week ago. I thought it very good tbh, ate far too much as did my neighbours  ::) One of my neighbours who came with us is Asian, he criticised some of meats, but thought the curries were good  :y But then, as his wife cooks him curries, I wasn't surprised by his criticism. He did say he would go back tho  ;)
And for £14 to stuff yer face...you carnt grumble at that   :)

Mind you, I'm in the back end of nowhere this week, a couple of miles north of Woodbridge, with nothing walkable around.  I suppose that's how the skin starts growing between the fingers and toes, and you start eyeing up mummy sister.
