The quality of the food is always excellent . The rice and three curries are outstanding and the best in the city, and when you consider the price of £ 6 it is without a doubt the best value meal in Manchester and perhaps the best value meal in the entire country. The surroundings are basic but nonetheless clean and tidy.
