All round feels like a bit of a ridiculous article, expect better from the FT. Not sure Indian restaurants have a particularly harder time than any other independant restaurants that fight for business and profit margins.
And some of the logic used/quoted is just... I mean, they start right off with someone complaining about how business is hard while casually mentioning that "there are eight other curry houses on the street".
Then the line about Uber taking people away from wanting to cook Indian food... is possibly the most ridiculous complaint I've ever heard.
> Non-Bangladeshis are also reluctant to work in the industry. Khan says he did hire Eastern Europeans in the past, but they quickly moved on. “It is not rocket science but they do not want to do it,” he says.
Plenty of Eastern Europeans (and English people, and... etc.) work in restaurants in the UK. If they'll work in a McDonalds but won't work in your kitchen then I suspect the issue is with the kitchen not the Eastern Europeans.
The article's headline might be fair, but really badly justified in the writing.
