Army surgeon Sake Dean Mohomed of the British East India company opened the Hindoostane Coffee House in George Street, London in 1810.

Gaining ground since the start of the second world war for its vibrant flavours over the bland rationed English food on offer, curries have become a staple of British cuisine and arguably a contender to become our national dish.
