Review on The Sisters Kelvingrove
Having scored a hit with their first restaurant in Jordanhill, the 'sisters' (Jacqueline and Pauline O'Donnell) spread their wings and opened a second venue on the site formerly occupied by Air Organic. This is a bright, airy contemporary place with monochrome decor, just around the corner from the Kelvingrove Art Gallery.
Scottish produce is at the heart of things culinary, and supplies are procured from near and far. Scallops and creel-caught langoustines are delivered daily from Ullapool by Mark ('the fish man'), lamb and beef are from Smitton Farm in Dumfries & Galloway, while organic vegetables are provided by a friend of the family.
The result is a feast of patriotic dishes produced with flair and gusto: Perthshire wood pigeon with Charlie McLeod's black pudding and caramelised apple, chicken breast with Dingwall haggis and whisky mustard cream, fillet of sea bream on chive mash with roast tomatoes and herb dressing, for example. After that, expect flag-waving desserts such as staunchly traditional cranachan or warm rice pudding with fruit compote, plus Scottish cheeses with home-baked oatcakes.
