  1. Abdul’s tips for a great night in

    Comments Off on Abdul’s tips for a great night in

    We know you Yorkshire folk love a good night out, but what happens when you don’t want to get dressed up and totter around in the rain? We’ve put together a list of things you need to host the perfect party night in, so pick up the phone and use our handy hints to really get the party started!

    1. Liven up your house.

    It’s supposed to be a fun night in so don’t have your guests sat in the living room they’re used to. You could always pick a theme, why not Asian? Lots of lively colours and candles give you a great excuse to get your guests in the mood to party.

    2. Get some guests.

    Invite the people you really love to spend time with, after all, it’s supposed to be fun, nobody likes an awkward silence!

    3. Bring the entertainment.

    Pick some great music or a TV show that you know your friends will love. Party games are always a great way to make the night, how about have your guests each bring a game so you know there won’t be anybody refusing to get involved?

    4. Food

    The most important part of any night in. Hungry friends aren’t happy friends, and luckily here at Abdul’s we’ve got everything you need to have the perfect night in! We can provide a variety of meal deals, a menu to suit all tastes and we even do a party pack just for the occasion. We strongly suggest getting in a few side orders to keep everyone happy throughout the evening.

    5. Drinks

    You need to make sure you’re covered for all tastes, lagers, wines and soft drinks all go well with Asian dishes, but make sure you provide for drivers as well as drinkers. At Abdul’s you can get a selection of cold drinks, or traditional Lassies with your meals, keeping everyone happy.

    Ingredients tossed, herbs flung, sauces ladled, pans clatter

    Customers are watching wide eyed as they catch up and natter

    Delicious aromas fill the kitchen, made up of wonderful spices, dishes simmer

    It’s Abdul’s on a weeknight and we’re waiting for our dinner

    It’s not long now until our orders will be ready, served onto the plates

    We have to watch as the chef swirls the authentic mix in the pan, a delicious concoction he creates

    A hot, medium, or there’s mild if that’s the option for you

    It’s not long now until we can enjoy each tasty mouthful, along with a chapatti or two

    The saviour of our dinner time, the hero of the hour

    We wonder if this authentic chef realises that over others he does tower

    We have it in our hands, the order that we’ve watched being made

    And now to the table, fork in hand, there’s not a second left to waste

    It’s all over; a fulfilling and warm feeling in the tummy

    There’s only one word to describe this mid-week delicacy and that’s truly scrummy

    Promises of authentic dishes, with sides and salads too

    There was no disappointment in this house – the promises were all true

    So if you want authentic, with spices, herbs and tasty sauce

    Get yourself to Abdul’s, you can choose one, two or three course

    There is something for the fussy, the foodies and curry fans

    Be sure that you get there early, so an Abdul’s can feature in your dinner plans!

  3. It’s hotting up here at Abdul’s

    Did you know that this week is National Curry Week? What better excuse do you need to have a warming dish that is filled with delicious herbs and spices than an official week long celebration dedicated to the dish!

    Many of our customers comment on the fact that we cook all of our meals in front of the diners, theatre style. This isn’t so that we can show off – although that could be said for some of our chefs – it’s actually because we want our diners to feel like they are part of the experience from start to finish.

    We also take time and effort in the presentation of the food that we serve. We know that you don’t want to look forward to a curry that smells truly tasty and then open up the carton to find something that looks like dog food inside.

    We make sure that our dishes are served in reusable cartons with a slice of lemon, garnish of parsley or topping of coriander. It’s the little things that go along way and we want to be proud of the dishes we serve for your dinner.

    Carrying on the celebration, we are encouraging our diners to try something different; if you take the time to come to Abdul’s during National Curry Week and you change your usual curry choice to any other from the menu we will give you a second main dish absolutely free.

    Go on, hang up those pots and pans and have the night off. Abdul’s is waiting to put a spicy selection of tasty treats on your table this tea time (try saying that quickly!).
