    Agree with zary2006. Simple and elegant design combination. Offer to answer some questions or tips on making curries, preparation for Indian inspired meals... By the way, are you using your own photos on this blog?

    Very nice sites buddy. But you should concentrate and keep the right hand side of the page more attractive. Other than that, it is really a good site and you can move to custom domain to earn more money out of it than here.

    You own a restaurant and you can't afford a 10$ domain?

    If you are running this site as a business, I would strongly suggest you get yourself a custom domain.

    By doing so, you can have full control over the site.

    Hope this helps.

    A custom domain is better and seems more professional than having a blogspot one! Ask yourself if it's worth getting a custom domain (.info domains are really cheap - $0.99 to $2) - depending on the number of visitors to your site and if you're going to continue on with your website

    I used to host my blog on wordpress.com & blogspot, but I want more a customized theme so I registered a domain and started to use wordpress. Meanwhile your brand will spread better.

    My recommendation is to move to your own domain, it is more professional :)

    The top tab menu looks broken on my chrome browser; i think the text are too long it doesn't look too nice I suggest you go with an alternate navigation design that fits your requirement of long recipe names. Also the rotating globe with white background doesn't look that good you may want to kill the animation and keep the background consistent with your website design or do something with it so it shows it as part of your website design.

    other than that the website looks cool. You may want to find and share videos related to food from youtube and post it on your website; i think that will help your visitors alot; I love those cooking tutorial videos myself :)

    Good luck.
