ABSTRACT
Indian food’s penetration of British food markets has led to the establishment of an academic research centre for Indian food at Thames Valley University, close to Southall, west London. Funded by a £285,000 UK government grant, the centre is designed to train new recruits into this growth industry to:
…update and extend their skills, not only in food preparation and service but also in business and management techniques… The Centre will work in association with the Southall Regeneration Partnership that aims to promote and develop the restaurant and cafe sector in Southall as a major attraction.
