New openings coming to Glasgow soon...

Shoeshine Johnny has been out on his wanderings seeing what's changing in Glasgow so here are a few things in no particular order...

The Chennai on Oswald Street will soon be: Grill Guru!

Hickory Steakhouse will be opening soon in place of the short-lived Agenda 87 (the unit which was Jayz and before that it was Bier Stube for years).

Madha, specialising in both north and south Indian cuisine will be opening at 42 Albion St where Indian Cottage used to be. Let's hope it's as good as the Dhabba and Dakhin.

The Citizen will open in what once was The Trading House to continue the theme of restaurants acquiring the name of the businesses which were once based there, like the Anchor Line next door, as 24 St Vincent Place was the building where the Evening Citizen newspaper was once published. This will continue The DiMaggio Restaurant Group's makeover of St.Vincent Place (they're already turning the Atlantic/Anchor Line next door into a hotel and they own Cafe Andaluz across the street!).

Tribeca did have plans to open in the Merchant City before but now it's finally going to happen on the site of the old Isleña Spanish restaurant, which was Central Market before that.

And last but not least, Julie's Kopitiam, soon to be found at the original location of Cafe Strangebrew (1109 Pollokshaws Rd), has finally been given the go-ahead. Expect more news about that in the coming weeks.

If you know of any new openings, changes or closures yourself please let Johnny know below so that he can pretend he found them first. 😉
