Descriere
(Delivery is imminent! Please bear with us!) The Desi Pub began as a story of resistance. First established in the 1960s to break the racist colour bar, which saw many non-white customers refused service, they have since evolved into a modern-day celebration of multiculturalism.
This is how ‘desis’ – people with Indian heritage – saved failing pubs and turned them into a joyful festival of mixed grills, naans and curries all washed down with plenty of beer. In this new book, the first of its kind, award-winning British-Asian journalist and beer writer David Jesudason travels the length and breadth of the country, visiting over 200 ‘desi pubs’ run by British-Indian landlords who have stamped their unique identity on a beloved institution and helped to challenge our preconceptions of the pub customer: from rowdy cricket fans to vibrant bhangra nights via football supporters enjoying pre-match mixed grills and beers.
Desi Pubs will take you on a journey to parts of Britain that are seldom visited. It is a celebration of 21st-century Britain and the forgotten people who created our modern, multicultural country. "Desi pubs evolved and flourished by serving Indian food, like mixed grills and curries. Today they bring communities together." Lackhey Singh Gill, currently the longest-running Sikh landlord in Smethwick
