PURPOSE IN EVERY PLATE WE SERVE. BECAUSE THOUGHTFUL FOOD MEANS EVERYTHING
CHICKEN BIRYANI ARANCINI
A meeting of two classics, our Chicken Biryani Arancini takes the soul of biryani and reimagines it through the lens of Italian arancini.

One of our bestselling dishes for the past four years, loved by locals across Pwllheli, Porthmadog, and Bangor, this favourite begins with carefully diced chicken, gently marinated for tenderness and flavour, then coated in panko breadcrumbs and fried until perfectly golden, creating a light, crisp texture without heaviness. It is then tossed in our house made mango maple sauce, where ripe mango brings brightness and fruitiness, while maple adds a soft, rounded sweetness. As the glaze coats each piece, it creates a balance of sweet, tangy, and gently spiced notes that feel both vibrant and comforting.

ALL ABOUT WINE
Let the Food Guide the Wine
At Nomi Bangor, Nomi Pwllheli and Nomi Porthmadog, we believe wine should be part of the experience, not just an afterthought. A good wine is not only about price or familiarity, it is about balance, character, and how well it suits the dish in front of you. Many guests naturally choose Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, or Malbec, but the world of wine offers far more than a few well known favourites. Indian food is layered, aromatic, and full of contrast, which is exactly why it can pair so beautifully with wine.
Crisp sparkling wines can refresh fried and rich dishes, mineral whites can lift seafood and spinach based sauces, aromatic whites can soften warmth and spice, and soft reds can sit beautifully with slow cooked lamb and deeper masalas. At Nomi, we have spent time tasting wines with our dishes and discussing pairings as a team, so that we can guide guests towards combinations we believe are thoughtful, balanced, and enjoyable. Taste will always be personal, but we hope every guest feels encouraged to explore something beyond the familiar and discover a pairing they truly love.
Chosen to Bring Out the Best
At Nomi, our wine pairings are created with the same care and attention as our food. Our Head Chef, Kartik Bhardwaj, who has completed WSET Level 2, leads the pairing process by tasting wines alongside our dishes and choosing combinations that feel balanced, thoughtful, and true to the way we cook.
Food and wine pairing will always have a personal element, as every guest has their own taste. However, our pairings are never random. We regularly hold wine tasting and food pairing sessions with our team, giving our staff the chance to understand how each wine works with our menu and how the right pairing can enhance flavour, texture, and the overall dining experience.
These sessions are built on genuine tasting, discussion, and shared experience across our restaurants in North Wales. The result is a carefully selected wine pairing experience designed to help our guests enjoy every dish at its best.
