ENTERTAINMENT GALORE

It has been a hectic social whirl of late with more plays, films, concerts and events in the UK than ever before. The Redhotcurry team has savoured as many as possible (well someone has to!) and we feature in the entertainment section a comprehensive review of all that is interesting.

Aasif Mandvi is still manically brilliant in his show 'Sakina's Restaurant' at The Bush Theatre and you can still see Oscar-nominated film 'Lagaan' at local cinemas showing Bollywood movies. However, as the nights draw in you may choose to stay at home curled up with books. Fortunately there is no shortage of good books by South Asian Authors.

GUIDE TO THE BEST SOUTH ASIAN RESTAURANTS.

But life is not all ha, ha, hee hee you know (if I may borrow Meera Syal's words). The team has been hard at work building a detailed South Asian Restaurant Guide, which can be searched geographically or by name. Take a moment to write a review of your favourite curry house.

WASTE TIME IN STYLE!

Rarely do we need a second invitation to idle away a few minutes doing not very much, but we take pride in the fact that at redhotcurry.com you can probably while away a good hour or so gassing in the chat rooms (members only), voicing your opinions on the discussion boards (members only) or emailing electronic greeting cards to all and sundry.

Until next time
