Several quality Indian restaurants compete for business along Nottingham’s Maid Marian Way, but the cavernous Mem Saab remains one of the city’s most consistently popular curry houses. With its minimalist aesthetics & friendly service, it’s a place to try innovative dishes that fuse Indian cooking methods & spicing with eclectic ingredients – tandoori ostrich, anyone? The menu is easy to navigate, with dishes such as Goan masala mussels & saunf gosht (lamb fillet with fennel, coconut milk & coriander) vying with curry classics & various special recommendations. Look out for the regular food festivals & special events.
