Monsoon has much :© pore over...


THE DECOR is as tasteful as the food at Clitheroe's newest eating establishment, Mon­


soon. Run by proprietor Mr Aftab Miah Choud-


hury, the restaurant, which seats 100, is beauti­


fully decorated with paintings of Clitheroe adorning the walls and comfortable furniture in the bar area. A standard range of beers, spirits and soft drinks are offered at the bar, where you may browse through the extensive Indian and Bangladeshi menu at leisure. The atmosphere is very much up-market


which it is hoped will attract a discerning clien­ tele. Certainly, with a closing time of 11-30 p.m., it is unlikely the restaurant will receive an


overspill from the town’s pubs as they close. The choices on the menu were huge. You


could eat out at Monsoon each week for more than two years and have something different at each visit if you liked. It was also good to see that each type of dish came with a good description of the main ingredients; something sadly lacking in many restaurants, and a great help to people who may need to avoid certain


foods. Particularly impressive was the range of


starters, which ranged in price from £1.50 for Dahl soup to £3.95 for Tandoori King Prawns. All these dishes too were accompanied by a description so you had an idea of what to


expect. Our choices of mushroom panner and onion bhajis brought forth the customary mur­ murs of approval, as did the main courses. We all picked something different. Dee chose


King Prawn Dansak made with hot spices and thickened with lentils and pineapple; Dorothy went for the Chicken Tikka Massala which had been flame cooked and served in coconut cream and ground almonds. I decided to go for some­ thing completely different and chose Machli Bahar. This was halibut steak served with ground almonds, mustard seed, yoghurt, oregano and brandy sauce. That too was extremely good and of medium strength, just right for my palate.

very mildly spiced creations to those with the strength of a Bengal tiger for the more hard­ ened connoisseur. A range of ices and sorbets, as well as the


Indian dessert, kulfi, is available for those who have left enough space. An extensive choice of wines is also available for those who like a bot­ tle on the table, and coffee is available to finish


off the meal. The restaurant also has a takeaway service


which offers individual dishes as well as a set banquet which includes dishes for vegetarians. Booking is recommended, particularly at

weekends, though we went early on a Monday evening when it was relatively quiet. The verdict was that the meal was excellent


and comparatively priced with other restau­ rants locally, and the service attentive with­ out being overpowering.

growing region until the onset of the full production on the 250 acres of Denbies Vineyard. Any grape could be grown in any soil, pruned any way and made as individual as an eccentric vineyard owner could produce. However, EEC regulations and bureaucratic red tape intervened and now English wines are beginning to recov­ er from the stress of having to implement a hasty Appellation Controlee. And what of the grapes themselves?


Well we do have several that suit our cli­ mate - 85 to 90 per cent being white wines. The best grape varieties are Seyval Blanc, Bacchus and Schonburger, Made­ line Angevine and Kemer with Huxelrebe and Ortega as late harvested dessert wines. Oak is used sparingly with the bet­ ter wines to add a rich creaminess, but we do produce, a little good Pinot Noir. Beware of "British" wines. These are


neither British nor wine, often being must (grape juice) brought in from abroad and "made” in this country. Try the delightfully fruity CHAPEL DOWN BACCHUS 1998 with a crisp


crunchy apple acidity for £4.99 from Majestic Wine Warehouse, Preston, or CHAPEL DOWN EPOCH V at £4.59 from Booths, Clitheroe. This is a blended wine, but just as good. Why not splash out on a "Royal" favourite - NYETIMBER BRUT 1993, a quality sparkling wine we are very good at producing. A classic mix of Chardonnay (70 per cent), Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, this is rich and biscu- ity with prolonged contact with the yeasty "lees", giving that feeling of Cham­ pagne. I t is in the Champagne price bracket at £15.99 from D. Byrne and Sons.
