A CASTLE Bromwich takeaway this month announced it had named a chef's special in memory of a regular customer, who died in a road accident earlier in the year.
Lime Pickle has dubbed its creamy chicken dish – a personal favourite of local man Alan Watkinson – “Mr Alan’s Massala.”
The 73-year-old ex-Rover worker had died from his injuries several days after a collision at the junction of Windleaves Road, just yards from the Indian eatery.
A Lime Pickle spokesman said it had wanted to do something to remember the popular pensioner, who lived nearby.
“He will be missed tremendously, he was a great customer and a friend to everyone here... always putting a smile on our faces.”
Patrons of the the takeaway, several of whom said they knew Mr Watkinson, have welcomed the gesture on the business' Facebook page.
