Nutmeg Indian street kitchen

You're walking down St Augustine's Parade in the city centre, past the Georgian terraces, and you duck into Nutmeg for what you think might be a quick lunch. Two hours later you're still there, working your way through charred breads and curries that taste like someone's actually bothered to build proper depth. The kind of place where Bristol locals queue for a reason — the menu reads like someone's travelled through India and come back genuinely excited about it, rather than just serving the same tired dishes everyone else does. It's street food done with proper technique, the sort of spot that makes you realise how good this stuff can be when someone cares.
