O perfil de AJT

I stumbled literally across this place years ago when drunk. It has shimmery,sequinny things glittering on the outside and the bright colours and higgledy-piggledy set up of the inside drew me in instantly. They don’t take bookings so it’s perfect to just rock up to and they do the most delicious veggie curry ever. I do consider myself to be a bona fide vegetarian except for cocktail sausages but sometimes I find veggie restaurants a bit worthy and bit full of yoghurt weavers. This place is different- it is a bit hippy dippy (which I love) and it is located in an arty part of Bristol but I know people come from all over to taste the food and enjoy the happy but not fake atmosphere of the place. The food is served up one big, compartmentalised plate where you get a dollop of this and a slop of that- I didn’t make that sound nice but it is truly delicious with fresh flavours and really inventive cooking making you unable to be civilised. You just want to stick your whole face in the plate and scoff it all up. The staff are really friendly without being noncy and it’s a superb place for eating really tasty food without having to spend loads of money and you don’t leave with that heavy stomach feeling you get from most curry places, where you can feel the ghee sloshing around your tum. I’ve made myself so hungry writing this that I have to go now.

If Fishers was a pub it would be my local. I come here all the time- it’s very un-poncy with friendly down-to-earth staff and a fantastic daily changing menu. As I am skint most of the time I try and take advantage of the early dining menu, where selected main courses are only a fiver. I tend to drink too much on these occasions too but that’s okay because the wine list is well priced and a bottle of house plonk is only about £12. I’ve had many a happy time there and always look forward to going there.
