More information on Akash

Akash is a lovely curry house which offers all the delights you would expect in a superior Indian restaurant. Situated on Cowley Road, it is up against strong competition but holds its own well. With small booths and overhead fans, Akash offers an intimate and sophisticated ambience in which to tuck into tasty Kormas. All the favorites are offered here, the Chicken Tikka being particularly worth a try. However, Akash also caters to a more English palate with its range of desserts that depart from the usual Lassi or Ice Cream choice. The house specialties have become their signature.

Traveler Photos of Oxford

Love that ochre shade Somewhere in Oxford. Liverpool, this church was bombed in WW2. St. Helen's Passage, where we walked through during the Ghost Tour (which was fascinating and very well guided I might add) where a lot of bloodshed occurred and where apparently there are lots of reports of a feeling of unease or anxiousness, and the smell of horses still residing from that day!
