He seemed to think that everyone knew that restaurant and he may be right. The place was busy.

Mr. Singh's is a modern take on a classic Indian restaurant. You can tell as soon as you walk into the spacious dining area. The walls are turquoise blue with some old elegant touches in the chandeliers and intricate cornices, but the furniture is modern with huge mirrors on the walls. The waiters, who all look south Asian, speak with Scottish accents, and are wearing kilts.

Our group included some people who had never eaten Indian cuisine. As they were trying to decipher the menu, our waiter came over and suggested that he order for us. Diners next to us, who were regulars, assured us that we were in good hands. They were right. We started with savoury pakoras. Later, I found out there was haggis pakoras, which I would have liked to try. After starters, we got a number of different platters of meats and vegetables and a huge tray of bowls with different sauces ranging from creamy to bitingly hot so that we could experiment with what we liked by mixing and matching. This was different from other Indian meals I have had before, but was a great way for novices to sample what Indian cuisine has to offer. Fragrant bowls of rice and breads accompanied the meal, and Indian and Scottish beers helped cool the heat.

The business is run by a Sikh family and the service makes you feel like family. It's casual but comfortable, and efficient. Reservations are recommended because the place was very busy and apparently popular with celebrities. Near the door are photos of the staff with happy patrons including some famous Scottish actors.

Mr. Singh's was delightful fun and the food was very tasty. We would definitely return for another meal. Close
