ScouseFox Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 Just used that link to check the place we end up scranning after a heavy one in town. Our version of Maryland chicken basically. 5 bloody stars. What heroes.
Guest MattP Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 Not surprised by a single place on that list except the steakhouse but then I read it's Leicester's 'first halal steakhouse' so I'm not Echo what everyone says about Marios, was a fantastic place to eat 10-15 years ago, such a shame the way it has gone. Like a couple have said I'd only eat in a 4-5 place anyway, you have the app on your phone these days so it isn't hard to find out. I'm astonished at how busy some of these takeaways are in town when I walk past Mary land etc but often the clientele look as disgusting as the place and staff I can't imagine how desperate for a quick feed you'd have to be to order from a place called Kebabish.
Chug Laguna Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 Never heard of Maryland Chicken so looked it up. That Chicken has his hat on backwards and seems shady, looks like he's got a bad attitude, something that a chicken has no right to have.

You have to wonder about the sanity of anyone who would actually part with their hard earned to eat from a place that looks like this...
pSinatra Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 I always search for the restaurant rating on this before eating there. http://ratings.food.gov.uk/ I live next door to a curry house. I won't name & shame, but there's not many curry houses in Cosby! I've heard people say it's a quality curry house, but I've never been that impressed. The missus was out Saturday night, so I treated myself to a curry from next door. It looked like dog food & I was as a rough as a dog later that evening. Not food poisoning bad, but nowhere near right. I've checked on the link & it has a rating of 1. It could explain the dead rat I found in my garden a couple of months ago
Chug Laguna Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 It could explain the dead rat I found in my garden a couple of months ago So, free delivery then? Solid.
Soar Fox Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 Just checked on the place I sometimes get an Indian takeaway from Chamalee in Blaby. 1* and it says major improvement needed.

The Blur Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 I loved how my link has completely buggered up many posters on here's favourite eating haunts!
Rob1742 Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 Well worth taking these ratings seriously. I knew of someone who ate a place in Leicester, they got food poisoning (salmonella) I believe and died. Basically his intestines had disintegrated when they opened him up and the only thing they could do was sew him up to give him time to say goodbye to his family. Horrendous situation. A friend of mine, a carpenter worked in a curry house once and they stored the onions in small open buckets in their personal toilets. Basically if you missed, you would get the onions. Take note of the ratings as certain establishments don't bother like you or I would
Stadt Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 My local chippy is a 5 which I'm somewhat surprised about.
Dr The Singh Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 2 places I get take away, eat at: Singh's restaurant, nottinghan is 4 star India Gate, Leicester is 5 star All good
BoyJones Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 My lads cafe on Wenlock Way is a 5. It's not just about hygiene, which of course is crucial. It's also about keeping records, checking temperatures all the time and recording. Keeping all surfaces, fridge seals etc perfect. It's hard work and you need to do it every day non stop. Totally cleaning the cafe at the end of each day. Plus various ongoing training courses. Unfortunately all the listed food outlets in the paper just can't be bothered and hope they get away with it. The trouble is it is too much like hard work. Was surprised to see Pak Foods on the list. Any outlet with less than a 3, IMO should be avoided at all costs. They will have had several serious failings. These businesses just want to make money, but are not prepared to operate properly and put peoples health at real risk.
Guest Col city fan Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 Just checked on the place I sometimes get an Indian takeaway from Chamalee in Blaby. 1* and it says major improvement needed. Cheers for that Walshy. As you know, I'm partial to a spot of Chamalee.. And the last few times we've had a takeout, it's not been as good.

pSinatra Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 Have you tried the place in Countesthorpe btw? Very nice Dine India? Rating of 1 I've used it for takeaway a few times........until I spoke with someone who works for Environmental Health at Blaby District Council

Rating of 1 I've used it for takeaway a few times........until I spoke with someone who works for Environmental Health at Blaby District Council Dine India Col? Used to go there all the time and it's sister restaurant in Arnseby. Me and my girlfriend have started using a place called Rifle Butts a lot recently. It's only a little back street pub on a Nottingham Street but the food is outstanding. I'd highly recommend it to people.
Maybes Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 I'd probably have about 6 months to live if TJ's on the high Street had made the list. Not surprised it isn't though the chap in there Jimmy runs a great ship. Was telling me in the early hours of Sunday morning that Riyad is a regular in there after matchdays. Love Jimmy. Hate Derby.
FoxLAD Posted 16 September 2014 Posted 16 September 2014 The best place I've eaten when I lived in Leicester... Kismat. Their selection of Game Curry's WOW :nuge:
