Things to Consider When Renting a Banquet Hall

You are on a hunt for a good banquet hall for your wedding reception. This is the most crucial decision as the whole impression lies on it. You have to be very careful while selecting a banquet hall.



Bar


Most of the banquet hall owners don’t allow the bar to be placed in the primary room. They usually have a small room with the main hall. This is injustice and those people miss all the fun. Those people might feel as if they are stuffed in a small room. If you come across such arrangements then you must move on and continue your hunt. Some banquet hall owners also allow bringing your own liquor. This helps you in reducing your bills and budgeting.


Dance area


Some banquet halls have an additional room for the dance lovers. Although this might distribute the crowd and leave more space in the main hall. Your friends and family may have practiced on your favourite number to leave an everlasting memory but you might miss some of the items due to this separate hall. All the people might not be interested in leaving their cozy space just to watch that dance. The performers might feel dis-heartened, as they have put in so much effort. Make sure they get all the attention. You can choose a hall with dance floor placed in a corner so that all the guests have fun.


Location



The choice of venue depends on the occasion. You can choose a venue which is a little away from the city with ample of parking space and a good ambience with big luscious lawns. You can also opt for a banquet hall, which is in the heart of the city. You save the precious time of the guests who don’t have to waste their time and resources to reach to your marriage venue. They can even go for shopping after the wedding.


Privacy


Ensure that the venue owners give you an exclusive space for your function. Sometimes the venue owner books the secondary hall, which is adjacent to the mail hall. But there is no independent approach and the people have to pass through some common area or corridor. Make sure your privacy is respected and you have a separate approach to your hall with a parking area, which is not very far off.

Chicken Tikka Masala: Britisher’s Staple Food

No place is better than London Darbar to offer a variety of foods. From hot dogs to salt beef, the variety is immense. The list can satisfy the voracious appetite of meat eaters as well as vegetarians. From barbeque to smoked dishes they have it all. But one dish is guaranteed to be on every restaurant’s menu, and that is Chicken Tikka Masala. Asian food is very popular in UK and you could say, it is now their staple diet. Even the supermarkets have seen a huge rise in demand for Indian food. They also sell tones of special Chicken Tikka Masala and other curries. Out of all the dishes, Chicken Tikka Masala has been crowned as the winner.



It is chunks of chicken, marinated in spices and yogurt. After marinating it is roasted. After this it is served with a curry. Usually this curry is made of tomatoes, herbs, Indian spices and cream. The gravy may vary as there is no fixed rule for it. As there is no standard recipe for the gravy, it is as per the chef’s choice. Coconut or coriander may be added as per choice. The dish has an orange appearance because of the food color used in it.  This dish is a favourite amongst all because of its lip smacking taste. Britishers can be said to be curryholics but this curry is their favourite.

There was a declaration in 2001 by Robin Cook, The British Foreign Secretary who said that Chicken Tikka Masala is the new national dish for UK. Therefore chicken tikka masala is now a true British national dish. Out of the total curries ordered in Britain, one seventh is Chicken Tikka Masala. Tikka means cutting of chicken to bit size pieces. The best part about this dish is that it can be eaten both with rice or breads. Britishers also know the art of blending food with drinks.

The dish remains true to Indian flavors. As we have variety in its curry, so is the variety in its story of origin. One of the origins of this dish seems to be interesting. A bus driver was returning from his duty. He was quite hungry and stopped at a nearby Indian restaurant. He ordered chichen tikka. He found it difficult to eat and returned it back saying it was too dry. The owner cum chef of the restaurant was having tomato soup. He decided to mix tomato soup and chicken tikka. Thus inventing this fabulous dish called Chicken Tikka Masala.
