In the heart of Gloucester Road, sits a new restaurant serving authentic south Indian cuisine. The owners, who already have a couple of restaurants (Nutmeg and Nadu) in Bristol and have plans to open another, say the food is inspired by train journeys through south India.
Unlike Nutmeg in Clifton, which caters to high-end dining, Kal Dosa is suitable for casual dining or even a place for snacks and pre-drinks ahead of a night out. With a fully-stocked bar and a range of cocktails to choose from, I probably should have paced myself when I went to its launch.
As a starter I had the cheese and chilli dosa, which is a large rolled up rice pancake. Although there were a range of dips - the coconut one being my favourite - the large pancake certainly had a kick to it.
