When it comes to good old American style grub, I love a hot dog. More specifically I love a chilli…read morecheese dog, and that's where my problems begin. You see, I've found it ridiculously hard to find a chilli cheese dog in Glasgow that has blown me away. The chilli is too hot or not hot enough, the cheese isn't melted or there just isn't enough of it, the hot dog is of a pretty poor quality... the list goes on. Finally my quest is over. Burger7 have been crowned my hot dog knights in shiny tin-foil armour. Burger7 have been on mine and Craig S's "Top 5 to Try" list for a wee while now so when the mood struck us for some USA dining we decided to take a wee drive out. I found a local postcode and placed a justeat collection order so it would be ready for us arriving. (I won't go into the saga that we thought we were ordering from the Coatbridge restaurant and ended up ordering from the Airdrie restaurant by accident!) I had ordered my chilli cheese dog, some gravy fries and a side of mac and cheese (always!!!) and couldn't wait to tuck in when we got home. First, the gravy fries. It is not your average chips and gravy. The gravy was thin, homemade and sweet, with a tomato-y tang to it. It tasted delicious and went well with the perfectly cooked fries. The portion was absolutely huge too so I was quite happy to share when my little one and hubby decided they wanted to try them too. The mac and cheese was really creamy and well seasoned, with a lovely hint of sharpness. I'm crazy about mac and cheese and this was some pretty good mac. The portion size was just about right, but again my wee one had decided that this looked pretty tasty too and helped me eat it. Now, I know you want to hear about that hot dog. As it was foil wrapped for our journey home it was a mess... a beautiful one at that. The bratwurst was juicy and flavoursome without being watery or greasy. It was also huge and outsized it's bun. The chilli wasn't too chunky, had a nice kick of heat to it without being overpowering. And it was just covered in melty sharp cheese. Everything tasted great on its own. Together, it was pure bliss. I've been searching high and low for that hot dog and now I've found it you can guarantee it'll be a regular part of my life now.

Heard about the new place in Wishaw that was doing BBQ style food, and being almost local to me…read more(well, closer than Glasgow, anyway) I swung by to give it a go. I was there just after opening, so there was some things that weren't quite ready yet, no big deal but take note! What was ready, was the smell... the smell wafting over the counter into the shop was astounding. It made me even more hungry than I was. I resisted the burger, as I just wanted to try something different from the seemingly never ending stream of burgers I seem to have been subjected to recently, but did note there was a lot of different options for burgers and fillings. As I said, the pulled pork wasn't quite on yet, or I would have had a pulled pork roll - so I went for a Flaming Dawg. This is a 9 inch hot dog, in a baguette, smothered in a Ghost Chilli Cheese sauce, something I don't remember coming across before. Perhaps foolishly, I was offered extra jalapenos, and I accepted. I also got a can of throwback Pepsi (made with REAL sugar!) to wash it down with. There's a couple of seats in the shop to eat at, but I was heading for a train (bound for nowhere, or Lanark as the locals call it) so I scuttled off with my bag in hand and nostrils full of BBQ smell. I have to say, the cheese sauce was lovely and smooth, and the ghost chilli through did give it some heat. It perhaps wasn't as hot as I was expecting, but there was a definite after glow from it. The dog itself was as nice as I've had in a long time, and I'll definitely be back for another one in the future, but with the standard chilli and cheese topping. I'll give Pappy's a three, more like three and a half, and if the BBQ pork tastes halfway as good as it smells, the rating will go up the next time I visit. It's nice to see something so different opening up outside of Glasgow or Edinburgh too. More of this!

Having spent more time in McDonalds over the past couple of years (with friends and friends who…read morehave children and babysitting a couple of grumpy teenagers now and again, and my other half and 2 teenage children), it has changed from my student days nearly 11 years ago. Before it was something that vaguely resembled meat on a soggy bun and watery coke to wash it down served with fries that were maybe potato in a previous lifetime (one good thing back then about McD's, they let you add the salt yourself rather than Wimpy and Burger King where the salt is added when they are cooked), the staff (rarely spoke and were definitely unhelpful) looked about as grey as the burgers and the decor and the furniture was functional not stylish (think lots of moulded plastic). Now they've done an about turn and realised that if they are going to survive they need to change. How have they changed? Well salads for a start, and I don't mean just a few limp bits of lettuce. The salad bowls are well thought out with good choices, garden salad (greens with tomato, cucumber, onion etc), grilled chicken salad and crispy coated chicken salad and Caeser salad (as well as being excellent portion sizes). With all the salads you are given the dressing in a tub, so its up to you how much you slather on. Also on the menu now are Quorn burgers (though I haven't tried these yet, but they actually look really good), so vegetarians now have a choice apart from the obligatory bean burger (which is hit and miss at the best of times). The deserts have also changed and there is now fresh fruit, fruit salads and I've also seen natural yoghurt served with mixed berries. .........and thats just for the adults. What about the kids? We've all seen the documentaries about how badly the kids (and adults!) of today are eating. You only have to turn on the tv to see Jamie Oliver campaigning about school dinners or the fast food documentary 'Super size me' (was it this that prompted some of McD's changes I wonder?) as well as the scary health programmes that tell us that most of todays kids will not have a very long life span thanks to the junk they eat. ............So that brings me back to what McD's now have on offer to children. Before it was chicken nuggets (and I've never seen chicken look like that) covered in ketchup (which is full of sugar and salt), although these options are still available they now offer chicken grills (mini proper chicken breast fillets grilled, no salt, no coatings), carrot sticks, veggie bites, grapes, apples, corn on the cob and fish bites (like fish fingers and 100% fish fillet). These are only a few of the now 108 items available to children for the new happy meals (prices range between 2.49 and 3.49 depending where you go). They also have a nutrition chart for their most popular products and their childrens basic menu printed on the back of the liners they use for the trays, so you can actually see that things are improving and they really are trying to cut down the amount of sugar, fat and salt in their food. Also available (if you ask a member of staff) is a booklet that contains the nutrition facts for every single product they sell (the information is also available on their website). Add to this mix, special offers on burgers that are only available for certain periods of time or on certain days (their Deli sandwiches which look very like Subway's sandwiches). The decor has changed and looks more Jasper Conran than eastern block with swish leather look stools and block sofas. Unfortunately the new look isn't going to last. Only a month after the furniture was changed I started noticing little tears in the fabric, stains on the wood tables and the children's art work which had been up on my previous visit had been removed to show that they had stuck it up with glue. The dried glue 'blobs' still attached to flaking paint. I'll give McD's their due the whole chain has tried to change but in some locations you aren't going to get people eating rabbit food (salads) or being respectful of the furniture. It is meant to be a high turn over restaurant and I have noticed the staff make a lot of fuss around you if you've been sat for more than 30 minutes (you try being quicker when you have kids in tow) if the restaurant is busy in a hope you'll hurry up and leave and vacate your seat for the next hungry hoard coming in. I don't like being rushed especially when I've paid for the privilege to sit down and eat and I've noticed this branch is worse than most at doing it. The toilets were grim and thats about as polite as I can be about them. I'm sure they were clean but the lack of respect I noticed by customer and also staff left the toilets in a very horrid state, with no proper handbasins only the metal wall mounted ones. I realise this is for space saving but I now make a point of trying not to use the facilities! Overall, I try now and avoid this and other McD's as much as possible their recent

Despite what you might hear about Fat Yankees it's really not all that. Although the menu online…read morelooks amazing for an American-themed fast-food takeaway but in reality the food is not up to much considering the cost. We ordered the pepperoni pizza (a favourite of mine) and it was probably the best part - if a little on the greasy side. I imagine it's hard to get that wrong. The platter was cold and disappointing, it contained spicy tikka wings, nachos with cheese, mozzarella sticks, chicken dippers, potato wedges, thickly sliced chillies and - strangely enough - hash browns. While elements of this were acceptable in terms of taste, the fact it was cold rendered the platter almost inedible. The cheese and bacon burger with chips definitely presents good value for money, a decent sized portion by today's usual standards. The burger is huge, perhaps a little too big with very little in the way of seasoning. My partner felt a little uncomfortable having eaten this particular part of the meal - the burger and bun just seemed to settle in the stomach. The chips were, surprisingly, good but were cold within five minutes of the food arriving and being unpackaged. This is 100% a case of unnecessarily large portion sizes being provided at the expense of good quality food. If you prefer quantity over quality, then this is the right place to eat.

The food was horrid and microwaved, and my glass of wine was almost a fiver! I would never go back here for food. Very overpriced and processed, and the bar isn't much better at all.

A last minute change and my friends said we were going here instead. So, I was very pleasantly surprised when we arrived. We had to get a taxi as there's no easy way to get from Blantyre to Bothwell in the evening, even though we're just over the River Clyde from each other. I hadn't realised as well that this was hotel. It's a very quaint old style building set just off the main road in Bothwell. It was a busy Saturday evening but we had booked so we were taken to our table straight away. We had cocktails to start, a Pornstar Martini for me of course (with a shot of Prosecco on the side), and I found some tasty options on the menu straight away. We ordered and it didn't take long for each course. I had the smoked duck salad with a beetroot and raspberry vinaigrette to start with and then ricotta & beetroot tortellini in a lemon and mascarpone sauce with spinach. My food was pink!!! I loved it! The dishes were so pretty. I didn't get a dessert as I was so full but wished I had taken a photo of my friends. The salted caramel and hazelnut tart looked amazing. She gave me a wee taste and it was as good as it looked. I would definitely go back here and wouldn't mind trying something a little different the next time. If you're out this way I would recommend popping in for a cheeky wee drink and a meal of course.

The place was packed, which is usually a good sign. They did have a table, and after we ordered, we noticed most people were drinking. Not to worry, as it was getting later, and we figured most people were just there for a drink before heading home. One of us had a slow-braised beef, which had a large amount of fat, and mash which was rather tasteless, almost like out of a packet. The other had a pretty good beef dish, but nothing out of this world. The service was lackluster. Give it a miss.
