A restaurant chain known for imaginative six-course tasting experiences that change every few weeks is opening in Bristol next month – with a theme based around chippie teas and deep-fried Mars bars on the menu.
Six by Nico’s first Bristol menu will be The Chippie, featuring re-imagined chip shop classics with a twist. Each Six by Nico restaurant has opened with the same menu but founder Nico Simeone says Bristol can expect some special tweaks.
The menu features dishes like Chips, Cheese & Curry Sauce with Potato Terrine, Curry Emulsion, Aged Parmesan Espuma and Monkfish Scampi with Dill Emulsion. Diners can also tuck into Gribiche Peas Beurre Blanc, Steak Pie with Aged Beef Tartare, Oyster Emulsion and Beer & Onion Consommé.
It will be completed by Deep Fried Mars Bar with Chocolate Delice, Cocoa Nib and an Irn Bru Sorbet. Vegetarian options are also available.
Nico said: “The Chippie was originally created to bring a sense a taste of nostalgia, with each dish a nod to moments we have all experienced growing up, enjoying the classics; fish and chips, sausage suppers. The Chippie is a personally important menu for me as it marks the beginning of my journey with Six by Nico and acts as an ode to my family.”
He added: “For Bristol, I have tweaked the dishes to bring even more nostalgia and to hopefully, spark conversation and moments around the table. I am really excited and feel humbled to be sharing this experience with the people of Bristol and afar, I really cannot wait”
Six by Nico will open in the former home of Carluccio’s and the Castle Fine Art stores in Quakers Friars, Cabot Circus on February 17. The menu is £44 per person.
