Garvie & Co in Milngavie became my 1st stop when I landed in Glasgow, after the long flight and shower and before heading off into the night I needed a proper meal. And I have to say it was love at 1st bite!
Since the 1st meal, I went back quite a few times, each time service was great and friendly, Garvie just has a nice cozy feel to it.
The 1st time I ordered a pint of beer and the Roast Breast of Chicken wrapped in Parma ham on top of truffle mashed potato with sautéed gem lettuce with peas and pancetta and peppercorn sauce, oh man was this dish perfection, and the truffle mashed potato was divine!
Another time at the Garvie again, I ordered a flat white and carrot cake, oh sweet bliss, this was a darker carrot cake then ones I have had before and the frosting was not the cream cheese type nor a buttercream type either, it just was perfectly sweet and complemented the cake perfectly.
Ever since my 1st visit I had been craving the truffle mashed potatoes and knew I had to go back one more time before I left, so my last meal at the Garvie was the Garvie & Co Club, it had chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomato and topped with a fried egg came with a salad and I added a side of the truffle mashed potatoes, this sandwich was perfect, loved the fried egg on it, so good, the truffle mashed potatoes were still just as good at the 1st time.
If you in the area, give the Garvie a try, I bet you won't be disappointed. read more
