r/Glasgow Tools

Hahah that's an interesting question ! I have to admit when I was eating out in Glasgow it was mostly nice wee cafes and Paesano and Bucks bar and Bimbimbap etc. So less curries and more everything else haha. But ehm, I've tried Tuk Tuk, Mother India, Curry Pot, Green chilli, Akbar's , Ashoka , Rishi's and a couple of other Indian/Pakistani places in Glasgow.
I've always found the butter chicken to be too sweet for my liking in most places. Other than that, I think, obviously there's less variety of curries in Glasgow than Indian restaurants. In fact a lot of curries like Chasni, Patia were things I was eating for the first time in there, because they're not very common in India.
The curries are quite impressive at most places in Glasgow, but ehm sort of need more complexity in terms of flavour because so many times I've felt like more than one curry tasting similar. Also one thing that is true for Indian cuisine outside India in general is that they only serve a specific type on Indian ( north indian / punjabi ) curries. Each state in India has so many different curries that are not represented globally. For example I'm a Bengali and The only time I could find Bengali food in the UK was when I was down in London. So yeah, guess you get my point !

My go to places were almost always Soba / Paesano / Cafe Strange Brew etc ,and rarely ever a curry house tbh, because I wanted to try new food and also because I cook just cook my own curry at home.

Sorry for the immensely long reply, I'm very passionate about food if you couldn't tell 🤪

I want to be back like NOW 😭😭😭🤗❤ Thanks so much !
