Having read the derisory report on this restaurant by "c" I felt compelled to write a rebuttal, an drateful thanks he doesn't live in the area.
He clearly wouldn't recognise good wholesome food if it jumped out of the pan and smacked him on the nose.
This restaurant visited for the first time since re-opening as The Silk Route is a quality place.
Great friendly staff, an ample varied menu, and thechef can make anything a customer wants,
So "c" if you want the usual tat,of burgers,weird chicken or wispy washy fish and chips just go there, seems more like your style, and leave the classier places to those who know, are prepared to enjoy and pay for good food, service and ambience.
A rare thing in Corbyns Weary World sadly but we will see more when we leave that awful set of demented money grabbing thieves in Bruxelles.
Keep going down the Silk Road, they know how to do it.

I had heard about the new Indian restaurant in Preston, The Silk Route. It replaced Ming Dynasty which I always found a bit soulless. The name suggested a fusion of cuisine's that gather along the real Silk Route in Asia. However it's a typical curry house that serves good Indian fayre. Nothing out of the ordinary, which was slightly disappointing. The venue doesn't look much different and could do with something to provide more atmosphere. Service was friendly and efficient from the waiter, though the table next to mine complained about their wait. My portion of chicken tikka Jalfrezi was ample, rich in sauce and hot! I would return I suppose but as I don't live nearby, not in a great hurry.

Really enjoyed my meal at the Silk Route Preston. Had the chilli Jhal, hot and tasty! Took some home in a doggy bag and would definitely return.
