Kama Sutra, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow.
« on: November 29, 2014, 04:42 PM »
Spent a couple of nights up in Glasgow (primarily to see John Bishop at the Hydro).

The night of the gig, Mrs G and I had the usual debate about what we were going to have to eat before we went out. Along the lines of :

What do you fancy for eating?
I'm not bothered really.
Well, you pick.
I'm not bothered...you decide.
Chinese?
Na....don't fancy that.
Pub grub?
That's all burgers and steak pies and stuff, no thanks.
Well you pick.
No, you pick
Well if I pick tonight, you have to pick tomorrow :)
OK
Curry it is then.....

By this time it was just after five....we had to eat....get back to the hotel and get washed and changed, and order a taxi for seven.

So we ended up in the Kama Sutra in Sauchie. Had a look at the menu in the window and it looked ok.

As we were early, there were only a few other people in. The ambience and d

Mrs G was in the red, Onions.

John Bishop was really good...a naturally funny guy, who doesn't actually tell jokes: just tells stories and makes them amusing.

Thoroughly enjoyed it  :)

Never seen John Bishop but I enjoy his TV stuff.
I have eaten at the Karma Sutra on Sauchiehall St many times and it is possibly its own worst enemy, because they often have a guy outside dressed in Bollywood gear handing out fliers and trying to get people in. And if you're unlucky there will be a stag / hen party in full swing, but you can't blame the restaurant for that.
The food is as you say quite good, but unless you go for the pre-theatre, you need to be hungry: I once ordered a chicken chaat starter followed by chicken jalfrezi, brinjal bhaji, pilau rice and a naan.  The chicken chaat would have been a great "sharing dish." For a rugby team. To finish me off, the naan was the size of a dustbin lid. I had to ask for them to bag it all up, but it did two lunches in the office later that week, so nothing was wasted.
If you're looking for a decent curry in Glasgow, you might want to try one of the following. They are all a bit different and they cater to different tastes, but I have put them in order of preference:

The Wee Curry Shop
Heera (Charing Cross)
Charcoal
Bombay Blues

Not knowing Glasgow too well, we chose it by accident. As you say, there were good sized portions, but our garlic naan was exquisite.

Not planning to visit Glasgow again in the near future, but will keep your recommendations in mind :)
