Kingsway Lounge Indian restaurant in Latchford is soon opening

With experience owning Anika’s in Padgate for two years and working in Spice Lounge in Culcheth as part of 15 years of experience, Jay Hussain is no newcomer to the industry.

He wants to use his experience to provide the Latchford community with a new Indian restaurant with a fine dining twist at Kingsway South, next door to Subway and it opens on Wednesday, May 4.

“I have worked for friends and family, and I have taken all of their ideas and integrated it into my own one,” said Jay.

“We thought we would come into Latchford where we can give the people a good experience for the community – that’s why we named it as Kingsway Lounge with the location.

“We want to welcome the community because we have more of a high standard of customer service and it’s a modern contemporary restaurant which is not the usual Indian restaurant.

“On the inside it’s like the 21st century modern restaurant in an industrial unit.”

Jay – who recommends seafood and sizzling dishes – wanted to step up from a takeaway to running a restaurant to provide the full service.

The 37-year-old continued: “Some of the customers I know asked ,e ‘why don’t you do an Indian restaurant because you have the skills’, so I thought ‘why not’?

“When we left the community was saddened in a sense that we were leaving because we wanted to go venturing for a bigger opportunity.

“There are certainly things you can’t do in a takeaway that you can do in a restaurant.

“The restaurant is more of a display, so I think that’s where we are going to attract quite a lot of people.”
