The restaurant will change its menu every three months

Travel around the world in small plates at a new concept restaurant which prides itself on individuality.

Nomadd, in Palmerston Road, is the brainchild of friends - Ravi Kuru and Sayeed Rahman - who have combined their hospitality experience to establish something wholly unique to the area.

The restaurant, which opened on October 8, dishes up seasonal plates which will change every three months to represent different regions from around the world.

Currently on ‘Chapter One’, Nomadd has started its culinary journey serving up dishes from different Spanish regions, with the menu’s trio of croquetas earning a spot at the top due to customer demand.

Sayeed said: “We wanted to set up one of the best restaurants in Portsmouth. We are going to change the menu every three months and we have very talented chefs in the kitchen working with us. There is nothing nearby like this.

“We got the keys in September and it took us two weeks to get things up and running. We were here day and night to get everything perfect.

“We are getting bookings every week, our social media is growing and every single review is five stars. The food and service is the key. It was a bit scary at the beginning but we have just gone with the flow. Everyday more people have been coming in and some customers have already been back four times.”

During the two week refurbishment, the site, which was previously Casa La Siesta before it closed earlier this year, benefitted from a fresh lick of paint, new lighting and trendy decor that also “keeps the comfort of the customer” in mind.

Ravi continued: “All of the dishes are made for sharing and all come and they are incredible - We have gone for the Spanish region and it is something we have worked really hard on.

“We work on the next menu two months beforehand. We’ve got a rough idea of what we’re doing next but we’re keeping it under wraps.”

The menu consists of 14 plates including red wine and garlic pork belly, and baked camembert and chorizo crumb, as well as sides and sweet treats.

Nomadd, which is open Thursday to Monday, is already in the process of creating its next menu, which is anticipated to be confirmed in the new year.
