Pritam's Tandoor Kitchen

You'll find Pritam's tucked away on Ashby High Street, the sort of place that's been quietly doing excellent Indian food while everyone else is arguing about where to eat. Walk in and you're hit with the smell of a working tandoor—that's not a gimmick here, it's the whole operation. The kitchen knows what they're doing with spice levels; they won't drowse your palate with a mild korma if you ask for something with backbone. It's the kind of spot where locals keep coming back because the food's consistent, the service is genuinely friendly, and you're not paying London prices for quality that actually deserves them.
