Favourite curry

Relationships are said to be in trouble when things get predictable. I'm not so sure.

I've been eating frequently at Kababish in Moseley since soon after it opened 25 years ago. It's the curry house to which I head when I want a relaxed family meal. And I usually order the same dishes.

So much so that the waiter last night took my order for a starter - inevitably pakora - and then rightly said: "And for main course you'll be having the keema mattar?" Which, of course, I was.

Next time, just to inject a bit of excitement, I might well order something entirely different. Then again, I do like my usual dishes.
