"Whilst
there are many curry houses in Manchester, Rusholme has the biggest
reputation thanks largely to the huge concentration of restaurants
in such a small area. Sadly, most of these are little more than
glorified fast food joints in need of a paint job, the money for
which has been spent on the bright neon lights outside instead.
Aimed solely at bargain hunters, students and drunken late night
revellers, they do battle with offers of free drinks and poppadums.
This is where Spicy Hut shines brighter than the glowing neon
lights that surround it. There's no need for incentives to get
you through the door, in fact prices are slightly higher than
many on the Curry Mile. Focus here is aimed, rightly, on the quality
of the food with curry connoisseurs and those 'in the know' quickly
becoming regulars. The trademark Sizzling Flambees are worth the
journey alone, both for taste and spectacle, whilst their other
Pakistani signature dishes can't be found elsewhere. In an area
that can be very hit and miss, it's important to visit the right
restaurant. To fit that bill, you can't get much better than Spicy
Hut!"
