Murphy’s Pakora Bar (1293 Argyle St., Glasgow G3 8TL) is back! And it’s located metres from the original premises in the former Green Chilli Cafe. Pakora – is as Scottish as Chicken Tikka Masala, England have their Onion Bhaji, the latter of course is meaningless.
Today, I post the menu. When I eventually visit, time will tell. The 16.00 opening is too late for Hector’s preferred dining model, also closed on Mondays.
If one made a night of it, as a – bar – there’s little that suits Hector’s discerning palate, Budvar may have to do.
In a departure from version #1, Small Portions and Curry have been added to the extended menu. Desi Lamb (£10.00) will have to be sampled. The small print mentions – Curry creations from the people behind the Ashoka Cookschool. One assumes therefore that Pakora Bar remains part of the Harlequin group which is famed for Ashoka. People have been telling me of late of good experiences at various Ashoka. The Ashoka chain may be worth further investigation. Hector is listening.
