Llanrwst restaurant crowned Welsh Curry House of the Year 2014
A Muslim owned restaurant in the Whitest most Chapel part of Planet Earth. And yet the residents organised a coach to travel and support their local curry house in a national competition. A great example of the local community being about all of the community and not just parts of it.
T Asha Balti House in Llanrwst was crowned Welsh Curry House of the Year 2014 at a ceremony at the Vale Resort & Hotel in Cardiff.
A coach with more than 30 local residents and supporters came over from Llanrwst to support owners Harunur Rahman (Raj) and his wife Shorifa and their team.
The announcement was made by TV weathergirl Siân Lloyd.
“The judges were impressed with the way T Asha Balti House prepared and cooked their Welsh lamb dish. The whole leg of lamb was presented and carved at the table, offering a unique opportunity to combine the sweet taste of the lamb with authentic Indian spices in a traditional roasted dish,” said Niaz Taj, the competition’s producer.
My personal observations are that it is a top notch curry house who give you a great welcome when you tell them how far you have come.
