There's naan other way to enjoy a delicious curry than with a side of naan.
Thankfully Yelpers in Glasgow & Edinburgh know all the tastiest spots to get a serve!
Akbar's
573 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow West End
Rocco G says "the family naan, also known as the 'blanket,' is really just exceptional, its got to be seen to be believed! Akbars is huge but seems to be rammed most night, it's definitely worth a visit if you're in the Charing Cross area."
Mother India's Cafe
3-5 Infirmary Street, Old Town, Edinburgh
"When a place is packed for dinner on a Monday night, odds are the patrons are on to something." Mariana M's verdict? "Service was efficient but friendly" and the garlic naan - "Delicious!"
The Dhabba
44 Candleriggs, Glasgow Merchant City
"The naan is so sweet and so tasty," raves Cenkai Y. "Although it is all about curry, I'd like to give full score for the yummy naan."
Kebab Mahal
7 Nicolson Square, Newington, Edinburgh
Jemma P promises, "you'll be treated to some of the best Indian food in town. The naan breads are big soft pillows and the curries are bursting with flavour!"
Mother India's Café
1355 Argyle Street, Glasgow West End
"Their 'basics' like pakora are delicious, and their peshwari naan is hands down best I've had - thin, crispy, chewy and full of flavoursome coconut paste with just the right amount of ghee/salt to stop it being a sweet dish," says Fiona M.
Tuk Tuk Indian Street Food
1 Leven Street, Tollcross, Edinburgh
Laura D notes, that at Tuk Tuk, "the quality of the food is unquestionable. The selection of naan breads are great - soft, buttery, crispy. Very tasty!"
Charcoal's
26A Renfield Street, Glasgow City Centre
Anne L "ordered the tandoori chicken and veggie skewers to share with some rice, garlic naan and curries on the side. Everything was delicious! The naan was soft and well made."
Noor Indian Takeaway
56 South Clerk Street, Newington, Edinburgh
Jasmyin T's best kept secret? A dinner of "the lamb rogan josh and the chicken Madras with ginger naan (the only place I've found making this variety of naan) If you're craving good Indian food where portions are generous and prices are okay, this is the place to go."
Rishi's
61 Bath Street, Glasgow City Centre
Nicola C says "the garlic naan was just oozing with flavour and the sharing portion of rice was a generous one. My helping of creamy korma made for the kind of curry I know I can rely on, whilst tempting my tastebuds to the rest of the menu."
Gurkha Cafe & Restaurant
25/27 Cockburn Street, Old Town, Edinburgh
Nicola C's recipe for the perfect mean? "The korma - a heaven-sent bowl of creamy warming goodness" paired with "full-of-flavour garlic naan." It'll make for "quite the Indian feast."
