The partner's word

Gunpowder Spitalfields is a London Indian restaurant with branches in Spitalfields, Soho and Tower Bridge. Its menus range from bite-size snacks and chaats to grilled plates, larger sharing dishes and set lunches, and include vegetarian and festive feast menus with vegetarian items clearly marked. Sourcing and ingredients are named on the menu — Algarve seafood, coconut and curry leaves are cited — and the bar offers curated drink lists and bold signature cocktails. The restaurant holds a Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand distinction. The cooking is Indian-focused and presented as small plates and sharing plates, with emphasis on regional specialities from Goa, Kerala, Nagaland, Kashmir and Parsi traditions and on bold fried preparations. The menu philosophy favours modern reinterpretations, exemplified by a contemporary masala dosa and Portuguese/Goan-influenced snacks, and communal family-style dining encourages guests to choose multiple plates; the site recommends two to three plates per person and many menus are to be taken by the whole table. What makes it unique is the combination of small‑plate, tapas-style service with strongly regional recipes and occasional Portuguese/Goan crossovers, creating a shareable, modern approach to Indian flavours. Signatures include Gunpowder Chaat (Norfolk potatoes, tamarind, yoghurt, black chickpeas), CPC Prawn Toast, Karwari Soft Shell Crab (Goan dressing), Tandoori Chicken Chop, Saag with Tandoori Paneer and Old Monk Rum Bread & Butter Pudding.
