Balti Bazaar

Head down to Stirchley and you'll find Balti Bazaar tucked away on Pershore Road, the kind of place that doesn't need fancy branding because the food does the talking. You're walking into a straightforward, no-nonsense Indian restaurant where the focus is on generous portions and bold, confident cooking. The balti's the thing here—that thick-bottomed steel bowl where your curry comes sizzling to the table—but they're doing the full spectrum of curries, rice dishes and the rest. It's the sort of spot where regulars know their order off by heart and the kitchen knows exactly how to nail it.
