Some little back street place in east London. NOT Brick lane . we asked for " something you would eat" it was amazing. no idea what it was but it was spicy but not blow head off hot and very very tasty. mainly vegetables but with a little bit of meat.
Never been able to find it since . we call it Mr Benns curry shop now.

1 My daughter's friend's mum's house in Sutton - East African Asian Hindu vegetarian.
2=. Specially cooked breakfast @ Bentota Beach hotel Sri Lanka in 1982 with the kitchen staff peaking out of the kitchen in awe at the westerners who had requested Sri Lankan breakfast
2= Workman's caff, just round the corner from Bentota Beach
3. UK restaurant, Dishoom Covent Garden - the house black dahl is as good as #1 and the Pau Bhaji is to die for!

Bradford in the mid 80's - or maybe Mumbai about 8 years ago.........naaa...Bradford definately 
On board the mv Ardmore, a P&O tanker I worked on for 6 months 1980/81.
The crew were Indian and the curries they made were amazing. I regularly had curry lunch and dinner, despite there being other options. At the end of the trip I was diagnosed with mild colitis!
Closer to home, Glasgow has a good reputation for curry houses. The Shenaz is among the best IMHO..

The Kashmir, Bradford. Their chicken prawn massala is a winner.
The New Kabana, Huddersfield. They do a meal for four consisting of mixed barbecue, ( chops, wings, boti, seekh kebab), a lamb handi (on the bone slow cooked lamb), and chicken massala with tandoori
Roti and naan, all served on a thawa. It's seriously good.
My kitchen. Lamb leg on the bone cooked long and slow as a handi curry. Takes all day to cook, but cannot be beaten. Serve with home made roti. Recipes from a colleague's wife.

Galle, Sri Lanka. Went there to watch the cricket a few years ago and for about £3 you could get a dish with chicken or fish curry and about 5 other assorted dishes.
Some of those side dishes were a bit odd but most of it was amazing.
