Cafe India's chefs feel the heat

Looking forward a bit, there is a fun event coming up at Cafe India on Albion Street in Glasgow’s Merchant City.

The chefs have teamed up with the Black Isle Brewery to investigate how well their Indian tapas match with the brewers’ concoctions.

The menu and beers featured will be:-

Poppadoms with Cafe India’s spicy onion pickle and a glass of Yellow Hammer

Kathe mithe king prawn matched to Heather Honey Ale

Chapati wrap matched to Goldeneye

Bhindi bhaji matched to Blonde

Lamb Chops matched to Porter

Indian Ice Cream float using Hibernator Ale

Dishes will be served one at a time, with the chefs sharing an explanation of how each tapa is prepared while the team from Black Isle will introduce each beer, explain how they are created and point out the flavours to look for in each.

It takes place from 7pm on Wednesday 28th March and costs £15 per head. You’ll need to be nippy; tickets are going quickly.

If you don’t get tickets then never fear. 5pm has a wide selection of fine curry purveyors who will be happy to sate any curry cravings.
