Nice Spice Barcelona

Curry on the Mediterranean

Carlos from Barcelona

About me I was born in Caracas, lived most of my life in London, also spent some time in Buenos Aires and Leeds, and finally moved to Barcelona in 2011. My passions are good food, reading, films and filmmaking, family and family history, and Barcelona. Why Barcelona? What I love about Barcelona is that I find new things in it to be amazed by all the time. It's a city that ...
""Nice Spice" Barcelona is the curry restaurant I head to when I get my regular cravings for hot food. I often bump into the cook when I go food shopping!"

Let’s face it, no one comes to Barcelona looking for a good curry. However, if you are like me and you love some spice in your life, then I have a place for you.

On a regular basis, I have the need to eat the type of hot food the Mediterranean diet just does not cater for, so I feel lucky I came across Nice Spice. The menu offers a good range of Indian dishes including favourites like Chicken Jalfrezi, Lamb Vindaloo Peshwari Nan and other mouth-watering dishes always made on the spot and with good ingredients. As they invariably cater for the milder Spanish palate, if you like your food hot, simply mention to the waiter that you mean business and the kitchen will push up the dial on the spice for you.

The venue is cosy but not cramped and they have a few tables outside for when the weather is good. Nice Spice also delivers so you can indulge in that so-British institution of the Indian take-away. Personally I prefer eating there, while I watch Indian music videos on their giant TV as my mouth burns with delight and I quench it with a cool mango lassi.
