United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Hmm. I wouldn't think that inflation would necessarily be especially bad from a restaurant's standpoint. It tends to be bad for importers and good for exporters. Restaurants don't export, but I wouldn't think that a lot of their costs would be imports, either -- I'd think that they'd mostly be domestic. Labor and such.

Apparently Dalvee is an Indian restaurant.

And it looks like over the past few years, despite the inflation, the pound has strengthened against the rupee. You wouldn't think that that'd be a problem from their position.
I guess maybe they could be importing ingredients used in Indian food from somewhere other than India. Like...okay, I guess rice is probably imported from somewhere else.
