These are Bristol’s 10 best restaurants
From a restaurant where everything is cooked on solid fuel to homespun dishes reflecting the swathe of Caribbean islands, Bristol’s 10 best restaurants according to the Daily Telegraph are nothing if not eclectic.
“For some time a new wave of creative cooking has been sweeping through Bristol,” writes Simon Horsford.
“The presence of four Michelin-starred restaurants is a sign of the city’s increasing impact on the British food scene, but the city’s cultural diversity, strong belief in sustainable ethics (locally sourced food is a given) and the locals’ passionate support of independent businesses has also been the driving force for something quite special.
“What’s more there seems to be a refreshing camaraderie between this new wave of chefs, restaurateurs and suppliers in a bid to enhance and promote the city’s foodie credentials.”
