Bombay Stores

Posted by Essss 28 November 2011

Bombay Stores in Bradford is an Asian department store and a legendary local institution. Head there for all things bling and Bollywood; it has a big sari fabric department glittering with all the colours of the rainbow, rails of shimmering salwar kamiz and myraid other Asian style outfits, shoe departments with gorgeous sequined creations and curled-toe slippers, a jewelry department filled with elaborate gold and elegant silver designs, and loads more. Most fun bit is the Indian method of payment. Choose the item, an assistant gives you a little slip in a basket, you dutifully take the slip to the payment counter then pay and receive your item carefully wrapped. In this store it's easier to believe that you are in downtown Chennai than in the UK! Love it.

Prashad's

Posted by Moia 2 March 2011

This family run, vegetarian Indian restaurant on the backstreets of Bradford has exceptional food - flavours I had never tasted before in my life. The staff are friendly and accommodating and have not let their recent stint on Gordon's Best Restaurant go to their heads. They also do take outs and a deli.

The Kashmir

Posted by Touring 30 November 2010

Quite close to the university. The Kashmir is not the most attractive of curry houses. However they do serve an excellent curry at a price that even a student can afford. You have a choice of two doors. One to the slightly more presentable ground floor, the other to the larger and more basic basement restaurant.
There may be better Indian restaurants in Bradford, but when it comes to quality, quantity and value for money this place is hard to beat.
