A new Indian restaurant promising healthy, fresh dishes is preparing to open in a historic area of Bristol Old City. Koottaan has moved onto the site of a former barbers on St Nicholas Street next to Seamus O'Donnells and Revolution, with dishes that will focus on the Kerala region.
The food will reflect the Malabari, French and Arabian influence on this region’s cuisine through the generations with a contemporary twist. Operating under the mantra 'Koottaan, feed your soul – with love from Kerala', the team behind the new modern Indian diner leapt at the chance to neighbour St Nicholas Market, renowned for its fusion of global cuisines.
Bethan from the Koottaan team said: "Koottaan is part of a small group of independent restaurants and food businesses, and wherever we are located, being part of the local community is incredibly important to us. We have had our eye on becoming part of the independent foodie hotspot that is St Nicks for a while, having visited many times and received such a warm welcome from the vibrant food businesses and retailers based in the market and surrounding streets.
