Essence of Spice

Essence of Spice on Melton Road in Thurmaston is an Indian takeaway occupying the same stretch of the long north Leicester food corridor as several other well-established curry houses. The kitchen produces a broad subcontinental menu in the evening-only format typical of the Thurmaston restaurant cluster, with tandoori starters, balti, biryani, and a range of milder and hotter curry options. It operates alongside Curryworld and other Melton Road restaurants in this suburban stretch of LE4.
