In this video, I visit Spice of Asia, a tiny, tucked-away spot in the industrial town of Nelson that seriously blew me away. Walking in felt like stepping back into the 70s and 80s—real old-school vibes, from the décor to the atmosphere.
But it’s the food that truly steals the show. The curries were rich, traditional, and packed with flavour, just like how they used to be done. And the service? Absolutely incredible. Friendly, welcoming, and full of character. Hands down, one of the best hidden gems I’ve found in the past year.

I think maybe one clarification. In that a lamb curry cant be made fresh in 10 mins which is what your video suggests. Maybe the correct assesment is the curry is made fresh on the day, and then reheated and respiced for customers in 10 mins! Which is basically what all indiam restaurants do prior to serving.just for those viewers who may not understand!
all the british currys houses are still run like the 1980s. The British pallet has changed but these restraunts still serving the same crap
FYI – Bradford is in Yorkshire
