One of Manchester’s best-loved restaurants for cheap eats is slashing its prices even further today, with meals for just a quid.

Bundobust has announced a promotion where you can get a pot of their delicious Indian street food for £1.

It’s in honour of Indian Independence Day, marking 76 years since the country became independent of the UK.

You’ll have to be quick though – the £1 pots are only available to the first 76 customers dining from 12pm on Tuesday 15 August, The Hoot Leeds reports.

Indian Independence Day is a public holiday celebrated annually to commemorate the end of a fight for freedom, honouring the sacrifices of those who fought, and celebrating non-violent civil action.

Celebrated across India, the important day is filled with joyous ceremonies, singing, dancing and of course, heaps of delicious food and drink.

And now, the wonderful team at Bundobust are inviting you to join in on the celebrations and offering £1 pots to the first 76 customers through the door from 12pm.

Taking place at every Bundobust location, customers can get stuck into classic dishes such as Bundo Chaat, Tarka Dhal and Rice, Okra Fries, Egg Bhurji and Bhel Puri.

Basically, if it’s served in the iconic Bundobust branded pot, then it will be sold to you for a measly £1.

This might just be the best Tuesday ever, don’t you think?

Announcing the brilliant news on social media, Bundobust wrote: “This Tuesday, India celebrates 76 years of freedom from British Colonial rule in 1947 – Since then, August 15th has symbolised the end of a fight for freedom, honouring the sacrifices of those who fought, and celebrating non-violent civil action.

“Independence Day is a massive deal all over the country – recognised as a public holiday and celebrated with a packed day of ceremonies, singing, dance, and naturally, food and drink, with plenty of the Bundo team holding great memories of celebrating it in-person.”

So from 12pm today, if you fancy a cheap but incredibly tasty lunch then head to Bundobust on Piccadilly Gardens or on Oxford Road and cheers to Indian Independence Day with some traditional street food.
