Tom Cruise likes a curry as much as we do, it seems!
The Hollywood actor is in the Midlands filming the seventh instalment of the Mission: Impossible franchise and was spotted out at Asha's at 12-22 Newhall Street in Birmingham on Saturday night as he enjoyed a curry with his friends.
Tom was thought to have dined with film director Christopher McQuarrie at the Birmingham eatery and he loved the chicken tikka masala so much that he ordered a second one, which he shared with his friends.
After his meal out, the restaurant, Asha's, took to social media to share their happiness at having the action star in their establishment and spilled the details on what he ordered.
"It was an absolute pleasure to welcome Tom Cruise to Asha's Birmingham yesterday evening," the tweet read.
The message continued: "Tom ordered our famous Chicken Tikka Masala and enjoyed it so much that as soon as he had finished, he ordered it all over again - The greatest compliment."
General manager Nouman Farooqui also told BirminghamLive how the actor even requested for the meals to have extra spices and how he wanted to keep a low profile.
He said: "Tom arrived at 6pm and the picture was taken on my folding Samsung phone by one of his security team at 8.10pm as he was leaving. When he came he said he didn't want any fuss and just wanted to be part of the atmosphere.
"He wanted a meal just like any other guest and simply wanted to enjoy an authentic Indian meal," he continued.
But he avoided being too much in the spotlight, with other diners keeping things relaxed until he left - when they all "went a little bit crazy", according to Nouman.
The 59-year-old actor also posed for a socially distanced snap with the team at Asha's - which is now circulating on Twitter and led to Tom trending on Sunday evening.
Tom is currently filming Mission: Impossible 7 and has been keen to keep things moving on set after a string of delays.
A source told The Sun : "Mission: Impossible has been hit by so many delays, there is now a huge pressure to finish on time.
"Tom and the team are tearing their hair out. Some of the crew are agency contractors and are already booked to move on to new projects. Without them, Tom will be left scratching around for replacements.

"Most of the filming on MI7 is completed but there is one last big scene to be filmed. The stunt sees a speeding train being driven over the edge of a cliff and into a quarry. There’s no way it can be rushed. The pressure is really on."
