A proud and exciting moment for Houseboat Restaurant as we recently welcomed popular UK food creator Only Scrans to dine with us during his Derby food exploration.
Known for uncovering hidden gems and showcasing the best food across the UK, Only Scrans visited Derby as part of his journey to experience diverse cuisines. His visit to Houseboat Restaurant marks a special recognition for us, as he chose to feature our restaurant among other notable spots in the city. With a growing audience of over 110K subscribers, his honest and engaging food reviews have built a strong community of food lovers—and we are truly honoured to be part of his Derby story.
During his visit, Only Scrans explored the richness of South Indian and Kerala cuisine that we proudly serve. From our signature lamb-on-the-bone curry to flavourful coconut-based gravies and perfectly balanced spices, his experience reflected the heart of our kitchen. Each dish we serve is rooted in tradition, crafted with care, and designed to bring an authentic taste of Kerala to our guests in the UK.
We are incredibly grateful to Only Scrans for taking the time to visit us and share his experience with such a wide audience. His appreciation for our food, flavours, and authenticity means a lot to our entire team. Moments like this inspire us to continue delivering quality, consistency, and genuine hospitality to every guest who walks through our doors.
