The Blue Nile.
It is been a while since I last went to the Blue Nile, but that said its been a while since I last had a curry. before Christmas at least. Even though it's a bit of a trek from home, both me and Mrs.D think that it's worth the trip. It's something of a guilty treat for a mid week takeaway, and worth the extra mileage.
I can't exactly say what I think it is that makes this our preferred provider of tasty curry, but I can put my finger on a couple of possibilities . First of all, and probably most obviously, the food is great. I've had a good range of the dishes over the years, and they all have a depth of flavour that you don't find in many other places - they all just taste great. The other thing is the meat. Quite often, the meat in curries, especially Lamb (my favourite) is a bit tough. Not so here - it is, as I'm sure they say in the industry, 'Juicy & Tender'. The Lamb Tikka they use is just perfect.
Now, just to peg this as a take-away would be a great disservice. It's also a really great restaurant. They we had a bit of a facelift. It was never tatty, or out of date, but they've modernised even more.The staff are great too, really friendly, really happy to help and make some brilliant suggestions although, and this isn't necessarily a bad thing, they will always manage to convince you to get more food than you need.
The sides that they serve up are also great, with some wonderful naans, purees and bhajis;l found this out the hard way, with much straining of the belt...
Sadly, there's not much more that I can say - you 're simply going to have to go and try it yourself. So, if you 're in the Stockport / Hazel Grove area, in need of some good food, and pining for a quality curry, whether in nice surroundings or at home on your sofa, get along to the Nile. I, doubt you"II regret it.
