Scene Dining - An Anti Climax

The Mrs and I managed to get a booking for the soft launch of Spinningfields' newest eatery, Scene Dining - indian street kitchen, last Monday. After seeing a sneak peak of the restaurant in the M.E.N with owner Asif Ali's bold boast “We’re going to bring very authentic street food, but with class and elegance and in an upmarket setting and presentation.” I had high hopes.

Sadly, these hopes were dashed!

Afghan Cuisine - A Carnivore's Delight!

I was in for a very pleasant surprise!
