We're living in an age where people are obsessed with food more than they were before and Birmingham's vibrant dining scene is no stranger to this trend;  if you happen to drive around Broad Street places like Celebrity Indian Restaurant demonstrate this better. Housed within a Grade II listed building the interior oozes with character with period features such as chandeliers and mirrors.

The menu is an exceptional convergence of contemporary dishes as well as tried and tested old favourites, so there could be haash shashlik, tender pieces of duck marinated with garlic and spices, grilled in the tandoor; chicken tikka and onion bhajee. It's comforting to see venison in an Indian carte and here it arrives as horin steak soaked with fresh herbs and spices and then pan-fried till tender. Before hitting the stop button, take time off to explore the dessert list that moves beyond the usual Indian sweets; try menta Bianca e cioccoloto, white mint flavoured ice cream coated in chocolate syrup with a chocolate centre.
