Dear Mr Wilson
I hope all is well
Getting in touch following seeing your comment and picture in this thread.
I work alongside Mohammed Ali on the
Knights of the Raj heritage project. We are currently working on the exhibition for the project, which will be open to the public on the 22nd of September.
We know that the Jinnah Restaurant was one of the earliest Indian restaurants. But we do not have enough information. We were interested in when it opened (and closed), any photographs we could possibly use in the exhibition (we would be happy to scan any you were comfortable about making available) and any stories associated with it (including family history, if you or anyone else were comfortable about telling such a story).
We are very interested in and indeed inspired by these pioneers and early businesses.
Please do get in touch with us if you are up for being involved, even if it provide some basic facts. We are very keen to make sure we leave out nothing important.
Hope to hear from you,
Best wishes!
