16 Jaw Dropping Curries Every True Brummie Must Try

How hot can you go, bab?


Disclaimer: We're using the word "curry" loosely, here. We mean any Indian, Pakistani or Bangladeshi dish, really.


Dhai Puri at Itihaas


Dhai Puri at Itihaas


Having cost £2 million to create this restaurant, Itihaas smacks of class from top to bottom. Dhai puri is a Mumbai-born street food given a stunning high end slant, here. Delicate puff pastry shells are filled with sweetened yogurt, chick peas, chopped onion and tomato, with a drizzle of tangy tamarind chutney. A true conversation stopper that demonstrates the varied taste range of Indian cuisine.

Lamb Chilli Bhuna at Rajdoot


Lamb Chilli Bhuna at Rajdoot


Winner of the Best Restaurant Design at last year's English Curry Awards (check out the lighthouse-style exterior, here) Rajdoot is cool just to be in, but brilliant when you start eating. Unsurprisingly the lamb chilli bhuna has a kick, but the heat is pitch-perfect, never in danger of taking your head off. Which would just be messy.

Monkfish Masala at Purnell's


Monkfish Masala at Purnell's


An immaculate nod to the city’s history of South Asian cuisine from one of four Brum-based Michelin-starred chefs, this really is "try it once before you die" territory. One of Glynn Purnell's most popular signature dishes it comes complete with Indian red lentils, pickled carrots, coconut and coriander. It's on his Reminisce Tasting Menu which you can check out here.
