Going for an Indian? That's the question people asked throughout the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Behind that simple question lay deeper meaning. The word 'restaurant' was never used. Nor was it realised that most 'Indian' restaurants were run by ex-pats from Bangladesh.
Ziaur Choudhrey, co-owner of the multi-award-winning Montaz Restaurant, reflects both on his cultural heritage and the lived experience of the Bangladeshi community in this absorbing book. Part social history, part remarkable recipe book, it is a captivating read.
Reflecting on how the Bangladeshi and Anglo-Bangladeshi communities created a multi-billion pound industry and offering an insight into the trials and tribulations endured, Going For An Indian is both a compelling story - and a series of delicious recipes.
