So I took a wee trip to Mandors and before I rounded the corner I could smell the most amazing…read morefood. Happily, the mouth watering aroma only grew stronger as I neared the fabric store, and I noticed the newest cafe to set up shop next door. Determining to pop in after I made my purchases, I happily went to pick up my goods. By the time I was entering the cafe I was famished. I scoped the place out and was heartened to see loads of fresh veg for sale, a bookcase full of eclectic choices and a piano in the far back. The lovely waitress was very patient and informative as the daily menu hadn't been put up on the chalkboard wall yet. I decided on a mix of 2 delicious looking salads, carrot and kale quinoa and roast garlic and nut quinoa. I asked for a side portion of the tasty looking hummus and finished with a bottle of cloudy apple juice. I went to sit down and noticed around the back of the kitchen was a pop up trade shop, full of lovely wee bits and pieces. Customers were encouraged to take, swap or donate! The lovely waitress brought over my salad and oh... no words could adequately explain how tasty I found this. For what looked like a small portion I actually struggled to finish it, and I'm a big girl! You know that way you know you're full but it's too awesome to waste? (This might explain my big girlness ;p) the apple juice was fresh tasting and thirst quenching, I could've bought another bottle for the road, but I wanted to leave the change I had for the tip! After eating I checked out Yelp for more reviews and noticed a few people talking about the awesome toilet. Intrigued, I went for a look - worth it is all I'll say! On exiting the loo I ended up chatting with the owner who was adding stock to the swap shop, and I told her the different ways she could use Yelp to promote her business. She too was incredibly nice, and I assured her I would be back soon. All in all I feel I've found a wee pocket oasis deceptively close to the hustle and bustle of Sauchiehall. The fact that it's just next door to Mandors is an added bonus! One star off because I didn't get the chance to see the full menu (it didn't start until after midday), but I'll no doubt update this when I do!

I'd actually visited here once before for a Locavore dinner and remembered it yesterday when I…read moreneeded a working space for a couple of hours (with food, of course). I arrived just after 1pm and I honestly didn't expect it to be nearly full, there was only one table left. Thankfully someone came over to clear it for me. I popped to the counter to order some lunch - the menu has lots of lovely-sounding veggie options so I went for the full plate at £6. For this you get one thing off the specials menu, 3 salads and dips. I went for spanakopita and the rest of the plate was filled with lovely salads like beetroot, carrot, cashew and lentils, as well as two lovely dips in the middle of the plate. It was a really good sized portion which I actually couldn't finish so next time I'd get something a little smaller I think! The cafe has a lovely vibe to it with people working away, playing guitar, catching up with family and generally relaxing. It would make a great spot to work for a few hours as well as it's handy for the top of town. On my way out I spied a great selection of cakes which I'll investigate further next time!

From a small but perfect formed menu we chose a Turkish pide pizza topped with an egg, pork belly breakfast bao buns, and the vegan mushroom bao buns. Perhaps the steamed bao buns served in bamboo steamers are a nod to their street food roots. I don't know what coffee beans they are grinding here but their coffee ranks among the best I have ever tasted. Hats off to the Barista. Open 9 til 4 Tuesday to Sunday I suggest beating as path to their door. The earlier in the day the better. Well done to the staff who were all lovely and kept their cool despite the overwhelming number of customers. Good luck in your new venture and thanks for being the highlight of my Saturday. Vegetarian and vegan friendly.

So, the one thing I loved about this place was that it looks nothing like a stereotypical Indian…read moreRestaurant. It's clear that the focus of the restaurant is that it should still be a fun pub atmosphere that just happens to serve Indian food. So, looking in from the outside, you wouldn't know that it was an Indian restaurant. But when you walk in and smell it, you'll know. Portions were a little small so expect that you'd need to get a few things to get a full meal out of it. But they are appropriately priced for the portion size. They serve food here tapas-style and I believe you are still meant to share them so the idea is that you get a lot of dishes and eat as you drink copious amounts of beer. The one thing that made this place stand out was their service. It was amazing! During my meal, their card machines broke down and, as a result, I didn't have a way to pay for my food. The manager then comes up to me and says, "It's our fault. Don't worry about it." To be clear, this is only something I'd see in small-town America but never in a major city. So I was surprised that in Scotland's largest city, they were so trusting. (Really earning their reputation as the friendliest city in the UK). I was so touched that I promised I'd return to pay for my meal. I even kept my receipt so they'd know what to charge me. I came back the next morning, paid my bill, and, even though it's not required at all in the UK, I left a big tip as a thank you for trusting me and being so accommodating. When I come back to Glasgow, I will definitely come back.

First impressions inside, it's small, with three small tables and a window seat (below a gorgeous stained glass cabbage!) and sparsely decorated but, more importantly, the delicious smell that greeted me promised some tasty foods! I'd already heard good things about their burgers but as this was my first visit I decided to be a little traditional and go for the Bulgogi Brisket Bao. Oh my heavens!! Deliciously rich beef brisket, kimchi and spring onions in a perfectly steamed Taiwanese bun, with a small side of pickled mushrooms plus a portion of Kimchi Cheese fries (because you can't have too much kimchi, right!?) had me salivating from start to finish. Freshly cooked, so close you can hear the sizzling, it was wonderful and given its within walking distance of my where I live, and is a good alternative, to the ubiquitous burgers, I can see me back here very soon (I may be planning a trip tomorrow!!). That said, they do burgers as well but as they come topped with kimchi, I'm hopefully of more good things! So, first day opened (so a slight wait was allowed as they were v.busy from the outset), and my first visit impressions were very good!! I'll definitely be back and, if you are in the area, I'd suggest you swing by as it's well worth a visit!

Have you joined the cult yet? If you have not it is well worth a try…read more Korean food seems to be the new on trend street food flavour. Kimchi Cult has been around for quite a while, but from what I can tell this is their first permanent place in Glasgow. I have been twice now and both times I really enjoyed my meals. Its quite a small place with only about 4 tables and I think a big focus will t be on the take away side of the buisness. First impressions were good, the staff were friendly, the place is pretty basic but does the job and the food is served very fast. The food itself is very tasty. My favourite thing so far is the bulgogi fries, which are chips with chopped beef, spring onions, spicy mayo and various Korean spices over the top. They are very very good and are like a meal in themselves. At £6.50 for fries they probably should be. The other things I have tried are the small pork belly buns and the cult burger. The buns are tasty, but VERY small. I know they are only £3.50, but I got a surprise as to just how tiny they were. The burger was tasty and filling (bacon was super salty) but im not sure I would get it again. I would probably go more for a Korean type dish and leave burgers for the long list of speciality burger places we now have in Glasgow. I will be back as I want to try the rice bowl and the chicken wings. Plus those fries with chopped beef over them are amazing. Nice, new and interesting place. Tasty food and worth visiting, but some dishes seem a bit on the pricy side for what you are getting.

I stumbled across Cherry & Heather while looking for a place to study. When I first walked in, I…read morealmost immediately left because this small cafe has just one table and is clearly more of a take away spot. However, when I saw the amazing list of sandwiches (and wanted basically everything on the menu), I decided to stay after all. I am so glad that I did! My sandwich (cartelized onions and brie) and green tea were delicious (the picture truly doesn't do them justice). The staff was very friendly, and as I sat there for about an hour, I was impressed with the enthusiasm they used to greet each and every customer who came in. The cafe offers a variety of food and pastries, and has a number of gluten free and vegan options. I will definitely be back!

There I thought I was bound by Govan by the choice of eating establishments when Cherry & Heather's is alas is a couple of stops away on the tube. Yay! Took me awhile to find it as it is slighty hidden down a side street but it was worth the hunt in the end. I was so impressed that I even took my mum there one day. I used to go frequently when I worked along at Paisley Road Toll, my company would always order from them when we had clients or directors up for down south. Those gourmet sandwiches were scoffed in no time. I was always partial to the Singapore noodles but I was drooling lots over serveral of their gourmet sandwiches. Yum! Not literally though. I just loved how their served them with a little hand drawn love heart on top of the wrapper incasing the sandwich. It always gave me a wee smile.

Well, that's if I found the place, yup, I made the mistake and thought it was the 78 on St Vincent Street in town. Doh! I didn't double check, my bad?! This 78 is open unlike the one in town and also based in the Finnieston area of the West End. So once Ian M and I eventually made it we checked out their menu, with slightly embarrassed red faces no less. Hehe!! I hadn't realised this place was completely vegan, I thought they did a good selection a vegan/veggie dishes so this was an eye opener for this wee carnivore muncher. I do like to have meat free days so was happy to try and especially off their brunch/breakfast menu. I opted for the Weekend Breakfast with a pot of tea, as it sounded mighty tasty. I had decided to stick with tea unlike the jakies (other Yelpers) starting on a beer for breakfast. OK, so the breakfast, it had vegan sausages, baked beans, scrambled tofu, tattie scones and toast. I asked to have it with a tomato and mushrooms, not my favourite vegetable. Well it was an interesting taste and the tofu was weird and a bit green. I don't mind tofu but I think the texture/scramble and colour was just too weird for me. The sausages were nice but the toast was brick hard. It was massive slices of crusty bread toasted, it was impossible for me to eat so unfortunately I had to abandon. I got a real surprise moment with my tea as it was really sweet and I don't like sweet tea, I had double check if someone had snuck in sugar. I was then reminded we're in a vegan restaurant so no milk, soya only. Ahhhh! So overall it was an interesting experience, and that's not mentioning the banter. I do believe plane lap belt dancing was a topic. Hehe!! I don't know if I'd go back for the food, I really missed my meat and milk. I think if you're vegan and veggie you will love it. I'm glad I got to try and I think that no doubt this place would be good for some evening drinks. Thanks again to Briony for organising and I look forward to trying the next Bruch Club venue. Mmm brunch!
