Customer Reviews
Very poor
Very poor. The Birmingham section has a curry house in it that closed about 5 years ago. The food was dreaful when it was open. It isn't a guide in the normal sense - it just contains comments that people have sent in. Lots of Cobra adverts, though...
Poor selection of restaurants
This was a most disappointing book. The reviews and comments about places I knew already were flattering to the point of disbelief. I did try a couple of new places from the book and the restaurants were not exceptional or worthy of recommendation.
The Good Curry Guide gets better
This is the best edition of the Good Curry Guide yet. It is printed to a high quality in full colour throughout and contains many photographs of restaurants, chefs, owners, food and so on. Unlike some guides I can think of (The Good Food Guide for example), the restaurants are arranged helpfully by county, then by town and finally by name, each in alphabetical order. This makes it easy to find a good restaurant in whichever area you want. The book has a contents page, a county index, a list of the top hundred, an 'A' list (new to this edition) and a town index. It couldn't be clearer and easier to use. In addition, there are many interesting curry-related articles and a glossary of curry menu terms. The reviews are, as previously, mixed in content and detail, some being more helpful than others but, to some extent, I suppose this reflects the reports sent in by 'us'. All in all, the previous guides were great, but this one is even better.
