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.
