25.01.2022 For those wondering what Gazza is up to during #isolation (as sneaky visits to the restaurant are now strictly prohibited by #TeamDaughter), we think he may be leaving us to become an official #BitmojiAdvisor for COVID-19 communications... What do y’all think of his Bitmoji campaign - fit for the job? #GazzaDiaries #AlwaysUpToSomething #RetiredLife #HelpingHumanityOneBitmojiAtATime #YesHisBitmojiWearsAHatToo

25.01.2022 If anyone is free and would like to volunteer their time to pack up some goods, join us at 69 Copper Cres, Beard ACT 2620. Will be here for a few hours. If this little one can manage, I’m sure any of us can

24.01.2022 During the COVID19 pandemic the government is allowing us to sell alcohol takeaway or home delivery! Don’t miss out on that refreshing kingfisher with your curry tonight! #seeyoutonight #kingfisher #bestindian #lightinacrisis #takeaway #delivery #alcohol #canberra

24.01.2022 So proud of one of our regulars Kay Harrison. A beautiful initiative, please support it if you can

23.01.2022 Looks familiar #GoLocalFirst #IndianAffairCanberra

23.01.2022 Slowly but surely, we are getting back to a new kind of normal and we are so so grateful. Thank you to all the customers that have dined with us throughout week 1 and continue to show understanding and patience with this new way of operating. If you are yet to dine in and would like to, we strongly recommend you make a booking first before coming so we we can prepare accordingly as we are still limited to 20 customers seated at any given time.... Thank you again Canberra, you really have put a smile on our faces this week. We couldn’t do this without you

22.01.2022 Due with what’s happening in the world right now we thought the least we could do is serve you delicious Indian food on Good Friday. As always, there will be plenty of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options to choose from depending on your preference! #seeyoufriday #takeaway #delivery #indianfood #canberra

21.01.2022 SPOTTED Quality control officer Gary, also known to many of you as Gazzaaaa, is keeping the team on their toes. Spotted in the kitchen behind the pans, the man himself is making sure each and every curry is up to the Indian Affair standard. He may be a senior now but he still got it #TeamGazza #OG #CanberrasBestButterChicken

21.01.2022 Our two leading ladies had a fabulous evening last night celebrating our 20 year anniversary month! Many customers, new and old, enjoyed their complementary Sooji Halwa and reminisced on some great times. Surinder and Pankhuri will be back tonight so feel free to pop in for a visit!

21.01.2022 As many ACT residents would be aware, the state rules for restaurants were officially eased today to allow 10 people to dine in at restaurants. We want to let all our customers know that - . We’ve made this decision because we believe it‘s our duty as a local business to prioritise our customers, staff and community’s health before anything else.... We also know a very big part of the dine-in culture at our restaurant is the ambience so we’d like to wait until restrictions are eased enough that atleast some of the ambience can be experienced. We hope you can understand our reasoning behind this decision and we will happily continue to offer our takeaway services in-house (call to order) and delivery online through Deliveroo, Menulog, Uber Eats and our newest addition - Canberra Eats. We appreciate all your support so far Canberra and look forward to the day we can welcome you with open arms through our doors for the full Indian Affair dining experience, once it’s safe to do so

20.01.2022 Nothing like spending a Sunday giving the restaurant a well-deserved clean in anticipation of the New Year Remember, we’ll be re-opening for service from Monday 4 January 2021 and we promise - the tables will be sparkling! #newyeardeepclean #gettingreadyfor2021 #indianaffairphillip

20.01.2022 Spot the Singh sister Some of you may have noticed members of #TeamDaughter showing their faces around the restaurant lately All grown now, it’s hard to keep track of who is who. Can anyone take a guess at which sister posed for this lovely shot? ... HINT: She’s wearing the pink suit in the framed image pictured

20.01.2022 We are so proud to be part ofCanberra Eats this business doing great things for local Canberra restaurants!

20.01.2022 Tables are filling up fast!! Don’t forget to book to ensure you don’t miss out Get ready for #ANightToRemember this Sunday the 14th of February at Indian Affair Phillip

20.01.2022 It’s customers like this that remind us just how lucky we are to have such a loyal and understanding community supporting us during this ‘rocky road’ for local business (COVID appropriate pun intended) Speaking of rocky road, I’m not sure how long Kay and Roger’s delicious home-made rocky road is going to last before it’s devoured by our staff...but what I can tell you is that we’re not too far away from re-opening for dine-in service (with some restrictions in place) Keep ...your eyes open for an offical announcement tomorrow with exact details #SaturdayNightsAtIndianAffair #CustomerChronicles #RockyRoad #MostCOVIDAppropriateDessert #GratefulForOurCommunity

19.01.2022 A sad day today as we bid goodbye to our much loved Front-of-House Manager Pushkar as he prepares for his big move abroad to Washington DC with his family Pushkar, you have been an integral part of our Indian Affair family over the last 3 years and it‘s hard to say goodbye. We are truly going to miss your energetic and cheerful presence. However as we all know, when one door closes another one opens. So we all wish you the very best as you embark on this new chapter of you...r life. Maybe you can find your own little version of Indian Affair in the US - although that may be a hard task! A big thankyou to all our customers that welcomed Pushkar with such open arms. We hope you can do the same for our new appointed manager - Pankhuri - who is stepping up to commence in the Front-Of-House Manager role as of this week. Here’s to the future and a new chapter of our very own for Indian Affair!

19.01.2022 Looks familiar #GoLocalFirst #IndianAffairCanberra

18.01.2022 With the weather getting colder, Surinder’s been spoiling the team with her traditional Indian chai. Would any of our customers like to try this Surinder signature?

18.01.2022 Giving the restaurant a deep clean has never been so exciting ahead of re-opening for dine-in service tomorrow evening It’s taking us back to the excitement we felt when we first opened our doors over 20 years ago (although we never imagined back then that hand sanitiser would be on offer as an appetiser)! #COVIDSafeBusiness #OpenForDineInTomorrow #CantWait

17.01.2022 Butter chicken - the question and the answer #MondaysAtIndianAffair #ButterChickenFix #Nomomom

17.01.2022 A true Aussie Affair today celebrating the citizenship of our Front-of-House Manager Pushkar Beautiful day spent with the team and a tasty pavlova to match We are so proud to have you as a part of the Indian Affair family Pushkar. Congratulations once again

16.01.2022 At Indian Affair, our staff aren’t just employees to us, they’re #family. Surinder had a wonderful time attending an intimate wedding over the weekend for an important milestone for our former Chef Sri. It was an honor to celebrate his elder daughter’s special day and it’s safe to say we all enjoyed being served dinner instead of cooking it (for a change!) A big congratulations to Sri and his family. You have been an integral part of Indian Affair‘s culinary creations ov...er the years and we are so grateful to have been part of such an integral day for you. From our family to yours, wishing you all the best for the future always #OneFamilyIndianAffairFamily #BeingInOurTeamMeansBeingInOurFamilyForLife #CongratulationsSri

15.01.2022 This last week has been a whirlwind of emotions for small business around the country so we just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to our Canberra community for helping us feel supported through Week 1 of altered trade. It would be a lie if we said it hasn’t been difficult to adjust, especially for Mama Singh who has had to abstain from visiting our takeaway customers upon #TeamDaughters request that she avoid non-essential outings But this last week has taught us one thing - ...just how incredibly grateful we are to be a part of such a loyal and loving community during this difficult time. In the words of Mama Singh - We love you guys, all! #ThankYouCanberra

15.01.2022 October 2020 marks 20 years of Indian Affair Restaurant! We have loved serving you and appreciated all the loyal customers and friends we have gained along the way! To celebrate this momentous occasion we are offering a special dessert for our dine in customers for the remainder of the month. Sooji Halwa is a semolina based pudding - the perfect sweet treat after a great meal! ... We thank you once again and can't wait to serve you for another 20 years!

Treat yourself to this one-of-a-kind Indian Affair creation #TGIF #ProudPunjabi #MangoLassiCocktail #AdultsOnlyEdition #IndianAffairOriginal

13.01.2022 25.02.2020 A big big Happy Birthday to the one and only #MamaSingh! To the world, you may just be one person...but to us, you’re our whole world So thank you for always being YOU ... Here’s to many more years of smiling and shining together! P.s. Can you believe this incredible lady is actually working tonight? On her birthday?! Because apparently it’s Butter Chicken Night and it can’t be missed! This is where we get it from #mamamentality

12.01.2022 Loved visiting Kay Harrison and her husband Roger at their lovely Christmas light display out at Middleton Circuit in Gowrie. Not only do these two put up gorgeous decorations but they also run a market with hand-made pieces by the award-winning and talented Canberra quilter Kay! All proceeds are donated to Brain Tumour Alliance and Bold Bandanas which circle through to Cancer Council ACT - just incredible! We hear they’ll be packing down around the 7th of Jan! So if you get the chance, drop by and enjoy this beauty while also supporting a great cause

12.01.2022 A few tables remaining for our dinner under the stars this Friday! Look forward to making this Valentine’s Day a special one! https://facebook.com/events/s/dinner-under-the-stars-valenti/169952880997013/?ti=icl

We thank you for your support and would love to keep serving you during the COVID-19 pandemic. #indiancuisine #bestbutterchicken #takeaway #homedelivery #restaurant #smallbusiness #love #support #supportsmallbusiness

07.01.2022 2020 has been a roller coaster of a year so it’s important to appreciate the joyous moments we have! The Indian Affair team loved hosting this group dinner celebrating Christmas in July Surinder even joined in on the festivities, can you spot her? ... #ChristmasInJuly #LetsGetFestive #BookYourGroupInNow

07.01.2022 Hope it was worth it

07.01.2022 If you could try a side dish of your choice from Indian Affair, which one would it be? From 1 July 2020, we are inviting our customers to enjoy a complimentary side dish of their choice for all takeaway orders over $45. This will replace our previous offer of a takeaway discount. This change will coincide with a price increase to our delivery menu through Canberra Eats, Uber Eats, Deliveroo and Menulog in order for us to be able to continue offering these services to our cust...omers. We hope you can understand the need for this change. To order a takeaway with us, call (02) 6282 1483 or (02) 6282 1492

04.01.2022 Wednesday feels

03.01.2022 To our Indian Affair Family - THANK YOU for all your kindness and generosity this week. Your donations are being transported to a number of areas on the South Coast by our goods friends at One Stop Auto & Tyres If you’ve got capacity to make further donations, please refer to our pinned post of the day which lists the specific needs (at present) for evacuation centres. As you can appreciate, the needs of these centres are changing day by day depending on the circumstances ...so it’s VERY important that you check the most updated list BEFORE making the trek out to Phillip. We’ll be open tomorrow from 5pm onwards for anyone that would like to visit

03.01.2022 We are all stocked up ready to spoil the couples dining with us this evening! I hear there may even be a joint appearance from our honorary retired couple Gary & Surinder Have you booked your table? ... (02) 6282 1483

02.01.2022 To our Indian Affair family Similar to many other local businesses, Indian Affair has had to alter our trading arrangements due to new Government restrictions placed on restaurants effective from 12pm today. We appreciate all those who have continued to show us support over the last few weeks during this unpredictable time and want to reiterate that we REMAIN OPEN for takeaway/delivery service.... To make our services as accessible as possible for our community, home delivery is available through multiple platforms including Menulog, Deliveroo & Uber Eats We also have gift cards for sale for those wanting to support us going into the next 3 months. After serving Canberra as a local business for over 20 years, we are definitely feeling the pain for our hospitality industry right now but continue to have faith that it will get better and we will make it through with your support. Thank you again Canberra and please stay safe

02.01.2022 *URGENT UPDATE* NO MORE DONATIONS Firstly, we would like to thank the public for the amazing amount of generous donations that have been received. The solidarity the community has shown after these tragic fires has been unbelievable, so from the bottom of our hearts - THANK YOU!... We are currently working with local communities to get these goods despatched to those in need and at this stage we are NOT accepting anymore donations of goods. The affected communities are extremely grateful for what they have received and are unable to accept anymore at this time. If you would still like to help, please consider donating money to local charities (salvos, vinnies, WIRES etc) or the go fund me that has been set up by Onelove South Coast relief program. We will advise once we are again accepting donations for the bushfire appeal. Much love xx

02.01.2022 SPOTTED Quality control officer Gary, also known to many of you as Gazzaaaa, is keeping the team on their toes. Spotted in the kitchen behind the pans, the man himself is making sure each and every curry is up to the Indian Affair standard. He may be a senior now but he still got it #TeamGazza #OG #CanberrasBestButterChicken

02.01.2022 To our Indian Affair family, Happy Reconciliation Week As a local business that has been operating in Canberra for over 20 years, we think it’s particularly important this year to acknowledge our place and privilege as a business on Ngunnawal country. We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, water and culture. We pay our respects to their elders past, present and emerging.... As a small gesture to celebrate this year onwards, we will be displaying this lovely flag set in the restaurant (see if you can spot where)! We hope it can be the start of more conversations with our customers about how we can all work towards reconciliation #NationalReconciliationWeek2020 #InThisTogether #NgunnawalCountry
