Well, what can we say?! We’ve been so excited for the launch of our monthly Lichfield pop-ups and we were so happy to see so many of you coming down to join us on October 14 and 15. If you didn’t make it this time, we have to say you missed out on a cracking time BUT we’ll be back next month for you to get your English Indian fix!
Our unit, on the Shires Industrial Estate (opposite the Peugeot garage!) was given a pretty cool makeover, with plenty of seating to enable folks to dine with us rather than click-and-collecting, plus a fully licensed bar. We also had the incredibly talented Rich Parsons with us too, providing the live music on the Friday evening.
The pop-up saw the launch of some brand new menu items, which we’re pleased to say went down a storm; the Kashmiri chicken burger saw us debut our gluten-free chicken recipe and the feedback on this has been fantastic – it was great for us to finally be able to offer a gluten-free chicken option! Our balti pies, too, were a winner – they definitely make for a hearty meal teamed with our chat masala chips and chill and mint mushy peas!
Thanks to everyone who filled in our feedback forms; it was great to hear how much people enjoyed the weekend, and we’ll be making a few improvements going forward too. Making sure the unit is toasty warm is our top priority as we go into the colder months; luckily October was fairly mild but we’ll be investing in some screening and extra heating to make sure everyone is comfortable when they dine with us over winter.
We’ll also be moving the bar inside so there’s no braving the elements when you need a top-up!
Our monthly pop-up returns on the weekend of November 11 and 12. Visitors can expect a new chicken dish to try, and we;ll be offering some delicious desserts – so make sure you save room for pud! We’ll have a Saturday lunchtime kids promo running, plus some fantastic toys and games to keep the little ones (and not-so-little ones!) entertained
Pop over to our socials and let us know if you’re coming down – we look forward to seeing you there!
