On a day which had been cold then warmer it was unnecessarily hot in the centrally located Bombay Blues in Glasgow's Hope Street. We chose the buffet which does not allow a particularly worthwhile appraisal of the menu and it did not compare favourably with Cafe Tusk. Being at the other end of the country or as I suppose the Scots would argue, in another country, it perhaps does not need to.
They have done a favour in bringing spice to a country which, at the time of my first Scottish Indian restaurant experience in the early 80s, so assiduously avoided it. So the flavours were not in doubt but the selection and rate of replenishment were poor.
I ate what I wanted but the greedy part of me wanted Movenpick ice cream. I celebrated several notable anniversaries whilst waiting for the attention of the waiter and decided not to be greedy but leave.
2/5 for inattentiveness but proper use of chilli.
