Contract catering as nature intended

David Homer opened the first balti Restaurant in High Street, Lye in the 1980’s. Being English he simply called it “Mister Dave’s”. It was so popular that customers queued outside for a table and they bought their own beer & wine!

Dave eventually opened three more restaurants in Telford, Worcester & Kingswinford. He sold these when he set up his own factory to produce frozen Indian ready meals initially to local pubs and clubs. These took off hotter than a vindaloo or phal as customers got a great balti with their pint of choice from their favourite local.

The word got out about how great the meals were and soon retail shops asked for them. So Dave supplied Daisy Freezer Centre in Compton, Wolverhampton with 500g meals in foil trays with a basic label and no bar code. Yes, it became their best seller and was for over 20 years until Sainsbury’s bought the store.

The retail meals are legendary in the West Midlands, especially the Black Country and the meal titles have taken on local colloquialism’s such as “Bostin’ Chicken Balti. Dave even ships his ‘must have’ curry’s into coastal Europe so that the Brit’s don’t miss out on their adopted cuisine.

Dave’s never happier when trying new recipes and his Cookery Courses are popular as he talks great sense about Indian food non stop.
