A business featuring a curry restaurant and the “largest takeaway kitchen in Britain” has been sold by Amjal Mushtaq, who wishes to focus on other ventures.
The sale of Mushtaqs, an award-winning curry restaurant and takeaway on Almada Street in Hamilton, was announced this week by Christie & Co.

The venue features a detached kitchen which is the largest takeaway kitchen in Britain, and won the title of ‘Best Takeaway in Britain’ at the 2018 Asian Curry Awards.”

Tony Spence, associate director of Christie & Co, said: “I am delighted to have been involved in the sale of Mushtaqs in Hamilton, with the full process taking around 12 weeks from start to finish. We remain very keen to speak with other operators who may be looking to exit the trade to satisfy a growing demand for hospitality businesses.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
