The best food I had in Birmingham when I was there 2 years ago was in an Indian restaurant serving "balti", a local specialty.  (Interesting that B's local specialty would be Indian!)  A balti is a curry with extra liquid, which you slop up with (Indian) bread.  There are many places that feature this dish; some are said to be better than others; so ask around for a recommendation.

Thanks Peter,
Been there, done that - got Balti coming out of my ears!  In fact we have an excellent take away just down the road that delivers, which is handy when our kids nanny has gone walkabout.

But what I'm interested in is VARIATION!

I want a nice little bistro like what we 'ad dahn in Lundun.  I can't even seem to find a wine bar!  I was tripping over them back South.

Can anyone help  -  preferably in Sutton Coldfield area but am prepared to travel a reasonable distance for taste, style and something different
>from  curry and balti  (and don't anyone say chinese).
