These small 3 wheel vehicles are very popular in India. They can be used to transport goods, but are most famously used as taxis.
The name Maazi translates as history and the restaurant aims to create a fusion of 18th Century Mogul Indian and contemporary styles.
The red rickshaw is permanently above the entrance to the restaurant. It stands on top of a large porch over the doorway.
The restaurant also has a blue rickshaw which can be hired for weddings. Whilst I was there it was being decorated for a wedding taking place later that day. The owner of the restaurant was meticulously sticking individual flower petals onto the vehicle.
The address of the building is
25 Causeway Lane,
Matlock
Derbyshire,
United Kingdom
DE4 3AR
