Dilli
Included In New Michelin Guide |
Cheshire's
Dilli restaurant in Altrincham has been included in the new Michelin
new 2006 handbook &ldots; marking it out as one of the best Indian
restaurants in the country.
It becomes
only the third Michelin-rated Indian restaurant in the North West -
the other two are in Manchester and Liverpool - among only 27 in the
whole of England, outside London.
The Michelin
Guide, which grades more than 17,000 eating places praises the
"quality ingredients" of Dilli's "totally authentic
Indian dishes".
And the
inspector singles out the "intriguing" interior décor
- describing it as "a mix of Indian wooden fretwork and minimalism".
Dilli opened,
in Stamford New Road, Altrincham, little over a year ago and has
built a unique reputation as the only Ayurvedic restaurant in the
North West. The "real taste of India" menu was devised
around Ayurvedic principles - a 5,000 year-old Eastern teaching that
uses ingredients to nourish the body and counteract or prevent
specific illnesses.
"Dilli
has gained high praise from customers in the short time we have been
open," says chef director Ravi Bajaj, "and to now achieve
national recognition with an envied Michelin rating is a tribute to
the most professional restaurant team I have ever worked with."
Dilli - soon
to launch a new restaurant and outside catering menu of traditional
regional Indian dishes - has previously won a Platinum Award from the
Internet dining magazine and restaurant directory Quality Food
Online, was nominated in the Manchester Food and Drink Festival
awards and in the 'Best Newcomer' category of the Hi-Life Restaurant
of the Year Gala Awards.
