I have heard great things about The Three Chimneys!

I agree with all your comments about eating what the locals are eating, 
but would "eat where it's busy".

Best Asian meal I ever had was at a little place, unfortunately no 
longer there,  called The Himalaya in Leicester in the UK. A friend who 
loved Indian cuisine took me there. The subtlety of the flavours was 
incredible and so well-handled. I have to rank it higher than some much 
better-known Indian establishments that I have eaten in despite all 
their stars and prizes.
