Darbar Grill – 140 Allison St. Glasgow G42 8RP
Darbar Grill came into being during the Pandemic Lockdown, a rebranding of Desi Cafe which was once the dining room for Desi – Curry Palace next door.
The saga of trying to eat on the premises at Desi – Curry Palace has been related over the years of Curry-Heute but is told specifically – here. Waris, one of Hector’s favourite Chefs and first encountered at Lasani Grill moved to Desi – Curry Palace, a Takeaway. Alas, Waris again moved on once more, setting himself up at the nearby Deira Lahore, again a Takeaway.
On November 21, 2016, Desi Cafe opened adjacent to Desi – Curry Palace, a new partnership with Qadeer Ahmed, formerly of Sheerin Palace. What was a rundown Snack-Tearoom had been carefully transformed into a Curry Cafe. The decor was simple, modest, effective, the Facilities pristine. In 2018 the partnership was dissolved, an internal wall was built to separate the the premises, we are back to Desi-Curry Palace as a Takeaway only, with Desi Cafe a separate business offering the option for Takeaway or dining in. 2020 saw the re-branding as Darbar Grill, further redecoration and the installation of new seating.
