© Food & Drink Guide Exotic spices, authentic ingredients and traditional cooking techniques everything at Myristica comes with passion from India. With its pressed white table-cloths, chrome-fronted open kitchen and stylish wooden flooring, this place is a far cry from your usual Indian restaurant and a real treat for Bristol. Head chef Bhaskar Pillai delights in introducing his customers to all manner of exciting new flavours and having cooked for the England and India cricket teams, you can rest assured youre in good hands. The charcoal-fired clay oven and bhatti open fire grill allow Myristicas team of chefs to create an adventurous selection of meat, fish and vegetarian dishes. Freshly prepared authentic curries and a delicious selection of vegetables, rice dishes and breads offer a truly unique feast. I recommend the baby squid or chilli panner appetisers followed by halibut tail curry, guinea fowl stir fry or Barra lamb chop kebab. Old favorites such as chicken tikka masala and lamb vindaloo pepper the menu, as do an array of vegetarian dishes including sweet potato and goats cheese kebab. Unlike many traditional curry houses, Myristicas jam-packed menu certainly doesnt scrimp on desserts, with the mango and cinnamon cheesecake sounding particularly appealing. A carefully chosen wine list boasting over 40 bottles offers one to complement every flavour, along with the choice of eight bottled beers including Cobra and Kingfisher, all the way from India. With special themed monthly menus to celebrate Indian festivals, regions and seasonal foods, Myristica meaning nutmeg or spice continues in its mission to become Bristols favourite destination for fine Indian dining and family celebrations. Exclusive private dining facilities for up to 30 guests or whole restaurant hire can be arranged, and with a civil wedding license now granted for this King Street restaurant, a superb package for your special day is only a telephone call away.
