Just like to know views, As there are many indian takeaways now about if i was to open a new one?

Question

If i was to open a new indian takeaway not a kebab house i would like to know what you would like it to offer including the decor and decorations which i could do it, this could include open kitchen, plasma screens etc. I would like your views on how i can make a new indian takeaway upmarket and very modern and as customers willing to eat from it rather than thinking it's just "the same as the other indian takeaways"

Answer 1

First a question.  Where are you planning on opening?

My answer would be “Teach Me”

Indian food has a rich and diverse background.  From each region comes a variety of dishes that differ widely from each other. Kati Rolls, Samosa, Dah Puri, Vada Pav, the list goes on of good combinations of textures and flavors.  However, as I learn more about Indian food I have found that I prefer some dishes at one restaurant but not at another.  I have learned that this is because they may have the same name but follow recipes from different regions.  So a little help educating the customer may add to their enjoyment.

As far a décor; if you do put in plasmas, possibly show movies from Ballywood; Sports when there is a good game on; or show cooking shows that are preparing dishes offered out of your kitchen.  Seeing how a desert is made while eating dinner could tempt people into ordering.

Answer 2

have topless waiteress and see the punters coming in,saw this in scotland,the place is always packed!wonder why!

Answer 3

Hmm..  i have been in most indian take aways and they seem to carry the same colour schemes like cream and brown.. nice.. but not really suitable. Maybe make it into a romantic indian place and have a red and cream theme. Have red curtains or just some white blinds so people dont think your going a bit OTT.. maybe use glass tables with red roses in the middle and an open kitchen is a great idea.. some people are interested in stuff like that and a plasma Tv.. and to get the customers in.. maybe show football on certain nights.. that is a crowd pleaser..

Hope this helps :D
