Hi, isnt the last comment made bascially an advert? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.47.34.51 (talk • contribs) 06:10, 7 August 2006
 * Not sure. But what I do know is that I've kinda been Indian for over 18 years, and I've never heard of this stuff. So I think that it's true, it's basically an 'invented Indian dish'. I'll still leave it vague, though, just in case someone from a far-flung corner of the country comes forward :) &mdash; riana_dzasta &bull; t &bull; c &bull; e  &bull; ER &bull; 11:54, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm sure it is a British invention to maximize profit from the swathes of drunken lads on friday night who insist on showing off by ordering the hottest dish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.58.70.79 (talk) 11:56, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Guys, do we really need a source in claims that people felt ill for eating Phall - I know I did the first time I had one. But don't take my word for it, next time I eat one I make sure I take a picture of myself in the toilet seat ;) -- Seriously, perhaps we can rephrase the sentence, then. Any ideas? --Pinnecco 14:23, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

probably an authrntic "british" dish, very hot and very very nice

My local 'Indian' takeaway is now offering the Naga...deemed to make a Phall look like a Korma.--Nozzer71 (talk) 16:43, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Reference
Article needs a reference for the Birmingham origins of Phall. Birmingham is responsible for many inventions in 'Anglo-Indian' cuisine such as the Balti curry but my suspicions are that Phall is from Newcastle created because drunken Geordies complained that a Vindaloo was not hot enough. Probably created by Abdul Latif in 1987. I know that Phall already existed in Newcastle in the early 1990s but did not exist in Leeds or Bradford at that time... so if anyone wants to push that date back further for Birmingham or provide a reference and date to the first restaurant to create it.


 * Phal (billed as "Bangalore Phal" but fitting the "very hot curry" definition) was certainly available at Norwich's "Eastern Curry House" prior to 1987, a staple closing-time dish for those who liked their curry searing hot. I don't claim that "Mr Ali", the proprietor, originated it though. Captain Pedant (talk) 21:56, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
