Harry Styles misses his favourite curry shop in the UK so much he wants one in LA

Los Angeles - Harry Styles misses his local curry house so much he is planning to help the owner to open one in the US.

The One Direction singer was a regular customer of Wasel Ali's Paradise in Hampstead, north London, but as he is now based in Los Angeles, Harry is keen for the curry house owner to follow him across the Atlantic.

Other regulars at the London eatery include model Kate Moss and comedian Rowan Atkinson, as well as All Saints singers Nicole and Natalie Appleton.

A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "They have all encouraged Wasel to open a LA branch because they always moan there are so few decent curry houses in California.

"Finally, he is considering it and Harry has been in contact offering to show the team around possible locations.

"Whenever he's back in the UK and pops in to Paradise, Harry always says how much he missed the food while in LA."

The musician reportedly plans to show Ali around possible sites for his restaurant in April.

Harry, 22, has based himself in Los Angeles while One Direction are on a hiatus and he is working on solo material.
