LEAMINGTON SPA – 12 July 2022- Millennium Balti, fondly known as the “MILLENNIUM BROTHERS” has been serving in Leamington Spa since 2014 by four brothers under the management of Mr. Mohammed Abdul Ahad whom has been working since the age of 13 at the various Indian restaurants and takeaways, part time whilst at school. “I continued my education, completed my GCSEs, completed my A levels but unfortunately couldn’t study further due to my father’s health deteriorating and not being able to work, being the eldest I felt my duty and responsibility to look after my family.” said Mr. Ahad when we visited him his cozy restaurant in Leamington Spa.

Millennium Balti takes Indian dishes like tandoori and tikka to the next level by quality food, excellent service and the taste. The quality of tikka and tandoori, that’s what we tried are excellent, tasty and good size portion at reasonable price. Service is very good, friendly, warm and welcoming. They open the doors at five o’clock in the evening except on Sundays. So Millennium Balti is a dinner and takeaway restaurant.

The difference between us and others is our unity, our local services, our extra activities that we do to help others. We genuinely care about our customers; we have a passion and want to provide the best possible food and service. We do everything with love. That’s our secret ingredient “love” said Mr. Ahad in response the What is the secret of your taste dishes? and continued “We also use the best possible quality ingredients, no cutting corners or cheap ingredients, quality speaks for itself. You can taste the difference in our food compared to others. We buy fresh produce, making sure it is fresh. We look after everyone, whether new or regular customer, however small or big order. We also cater for individual tastes and preferences. For the health conscious we also have a wide range of healthy vegetarian dishes and grilled food where oil is very minimum, and we use low fat yoghurt. Most of our customer we have got to know and know their likes and dislikes. We also are honest and clear about our timings; we will not tell customers your takeaway will be ready in say 20 minutes and then having to wait for 30 minutes. We will always give extra time so that customers are not left waiting and disappointed or frustrated.”

For dining in all their starters are served sizzling hot on a sizzling iron cast platter. This is one of their major unique successes as 90% of our customers order starters. Serving them sizzling hot creates a great atmosphere!

Millennium Balti’s lamb dishes are very popular in the town. It is cooked to perfection, very soft and tender. It’s marinated in ginger and garlic first with yoghurt to soften it, then cooked at very low heat very slowly.
n
They have unusual dishes too, like chicken or lamb mustard, which is proving very popular, tasty curry with slightly bitter tasted and slightly spiced. Mustard seeds are washed then fried then some are ground, and some remain whole which is then made into paste using herbs and spices then mixed together with either chicken or lamb.
n
They also do chicken and lamb SHATKORA, using very unique Bangladeshi citrus fruit “SHATKORA” which is only grown in Bangladesh. They use fresh shatkora which is available in local Bangladeshi shop. They do honey chicken which is dry dish using chicken breast pieces which is with onions which are caramelized, sugar, honey; the cooking has to be perfect for this specially the timing as honey and sugar can get burnt if overcooked. We do a vegetarian shashlik which is also very popular and filling. Using mix vegetables, with paneer and fresh mushrooms, a dry dish with onions, pepper and tomatoes grilled in the tandoori clay oven. Very tasty and fresh.
