King of baltis is the best, comes highly recommended from a friend of mine who made me drive 100 miles to go for a meal there, and it was so worth it. Table nans for sure

if you want to try something a little nearer to home, there is an area of leicester that is reknown for its curries in general, though I'm not sure about balties...

If you are interested in good food in Nottingham, there is a fantastic cantonese in Beeston, all you can eat for 14.50, and the staff are so helpful and nice...well worth it

have fun

The Royal Naim still gets my vote every time.
I've tried all the well known ones however this is still my favourite. AS the other replies have confirmed- yep the big table naans still happen ;-)
