Business Opening: Caledon's Curry & Cocktail
Caledon's Curry & Cocktail, Bolton’s newest restaurant, celebrated with a grand opening event on August 1, 2018.
We asked owner, Karthick Vijayan to tell us about the restaurant and what people can expect.
Tell us a little about you and your restaurant.
This is a family owned restaurant, I’m a master chef with 20 years of experience in the food industry. I graduated in Hotel Management and Catering Technology and worked with Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines for 2 years and have 12 years of experience in North America.
My brother, and partner, Paul Gopinath has 5 years of experience in managing food and sales in the restaurant industry.
This is our only restaurant and the whole idea is to serve up "Caledon Community". I want everyone who comes in for lunch or dinner to feel connected in some way.
We want everyone to have a fine dining experience.
Why have you chosen to locate your business in Bolton?
We live close by in Brampton and have been talking about opening our own restaurant for quite some time. When we came to Bolton and realized there was no other Indian restaurant here, after doing research and coming up with our business plan we thought this was an excellent location.
Do you have favourite items on the menu or is there something you are known for?
It’s all delicious and homemade. We make traditional Indian cuisine as people would expect from samosas, garlic naan and tandoori, to butter chicken, vindaloo and tikka masala and a few items that may not be as familiar like battura (a bread) and aloo baingan (potato and eggplant).
Any future plans for the restaurant you want to share?
In future, if everything goes well we hope to put a patio outside in summer to serve our community better.
But, for now, our main concern is maintaining great food quality and friendly service to provide our customers with the best experience.
