More about Spice Avenue Balti Restaurant
An Introduction into the World of Balti
There is a fair amount of mysticism around the origin of Balti. The word Balti means ‘Bucket’ which bears no resemblance to the cooking dish the ‘Korai’ similar to the wok from which the Balti developed.
It is believed that the style of Balti cooking started in the northern region of Pakistan in the state of Kashmir, from where it then spread throughout the Indian subcontinent and the rest of the world (Birmingham UK) and now in Birkdale Australia. The regions close proximity to China the home of the Wok may no doubt have influenced the development of the Balti.
We at the Spice Avenue, Birkdale take pride in our quality and high standards of traditional Balti cooking. We specialise in a variety of Balti dishes cooked in the traditional way using only the finest and freshest of ingredients to ensure your complete satisfaction.

This formula of cooking and presentation has been practiced in our UK branch since 1980.
In comparison to the days when the curry experience was a late night wrestle with a chicken vindaloo, cooled by a liberal amount of chilled lager, the Balti experience is one of subtlety yet spicy where you can taste the flavor of the food rather than the heat of the chilies.
