“I don't believe any of that crop in the paper, for starter the photo is not taken from the Kitchen of Newent Tandoori,

infect if you look closely it is under neath wheelie Bin outside, because the floor is concreted not tile, all commercial kitchen flooring must have Tile or Liner for easy cleaning, so it can't be the kitchen.

because we go to the the Tandoori Every week I see inside the Kitchen every time and all ways looks clean.
I went this Saturday Evening and looked even more closely, very clean, well uniformed staff.

The food was fantastic as before, the place was packed as before, and still the best.

the paper exaggerated the story so people will buy their papers more.

if for last 17 years nobody been ill, or complained to the council ,how can suddenly it'll be bad.
if you been a regular to the Tandoori and you never had problem since last MAY or before, do you think you'll have now?
if any thing they will be more careful now.

I say if any one still has any doubt go and check it for your self
don't believe any of the none sense the paper wrote.”

“I been going to Newent tandoori for long time,almost every week always had excellent food ,as far as I know all food are cooked fresh on the premises,never had bad meal.

from the picture you can see fresh Green chlli, Ginger,Onion skin,uncooked rice it can't be on the floor for long ,

the photo can't be in the kitchen because there is no tile on the floor.

when I saw the picture and the headline,
it did worry me,but after close examination its not so bad as its seem. knowing the place and the staff I am not bothered. I been enjoying all these years no problem, this will make the management more careful .in the future.

The council has given them good report that assure me more.
keep making good food boys”

“I go to the Tandoori every week 2-3 time for my Pathia or Madras, I am quite friendly with the staff,quite often I go to the kitchen to speak to the Chef, and learn some of their spices I did not see any unclean area or dirty utensil or heavy debris on the floor, every time I been in the kitchen ,the Chef doing the cooking and others peeling, wiping or cleaning. why the council fine them for 1 none compliance it seem very hush to me.”

“I live in Ross on wye, I been travelling to Newent Tandoori for my friday night Tandoori , it's alway's been superb food, the place seem clean and well managed.
we have 4 indian restuarant in Ross on Wye, none of them half as good as Newent Tandoori thats why I had to drive all the way to Newent .
But I am puzzles reading the report, it has happened almost year a go and they got very good hygiene rating now, I am satisfied it must been a one of incident's and it hasn't been that bad because the place was never lose their star's, I know the person behind the counter he is friendly, he took me to the kitchen to meet all the staff ,on New
Years EVE, the kitchen was clean as it should be,”

“I cant believe this, they actually found dirty utensils, and in a kitchen?! Thats terrible, theyll be finding potholes in the roads next.”

“That's an excellent post, Robin Carey, Longhope - it could almost have been written by the proprietor himself !!”

“The Greek tradition is for diners to visit the kitchen to see what's what before making their choice. And while the practice has become less evident in restaurants catering for foreign tourist, it is still very much what the locals demand. Why not introduce this system here?”

“I went there once but I can't remember much after all the lovely Kingfisher cider they served. SLURP!”

“I am a regular at the Newent Tandoori,it was recommended to me by a friend, I been hooked since,s.I work as a Rep, my job takes me all over the country, I have tried many Indian restaurant and Take aways Newent tandoori is still the best around.
I was shock to see the report.

I been going there for last 12 year's I never had a bad meal, every time it's been excellent Food , well presented.,Newent Tandoori has won many Award for excellent food , good presentation and cleanness, many Award's are hanged on there wall. I see inside the kitchen, when the friendly chap at the counter open the door, you could see the whole kitchen.
I never saw any thing to be concern of, the staff in the kitchen wear clean uniform with chef hat's,all looks professional, as a regular to Newent Tandoori for very long time, never had any problem, I don't think I would be losing my trust for one mishap as long as the chef's keep on producing excellent food as they have been doing for last 12 years, I will be visiting for my favourite dish Chicken Tikka poneer, with Honey Rice and Keema Nan.”

“hello every one
I live right next door to newent Tandoori, above the flats, and i have to travel past the kitchen of the Tandoori, from my observation
what I can say is newent Tandoori is kept tidy and clean at all time, so when I saw this news I was very surprise, I spoken to Mr Uddin and he advise me there was dis-used shed at the rear of the shop which was untidy, when the enviromental officer visited and he has explained to the officer's
the shed is not in use there fore
he shouldn't have to maintain it,
but obviously they did not see that way. I get take away all the time from Newent Tandoori and I will going there this week end.”
