Emma The Birdy is the word at The Blythswood
One of the best bits of blogging is getting asked along to preview nights and giving constructive feedback on the food/drink and service on offer. The Blythswood Square Hotel are getting ready to open their Bo & Birdy restaurant on Wednesday 15th May and we were invited along last night to see what has changed and sample some new dishes.
Executive Head Chef Gillian Matthews, who originally started as the hotel’s pastry chef and has worked her way up, will take charge of the shiny new Bo & Birdy. The ‘Bo’ in the title being short for ‘bovine’, and a reference to the restaurant’s ‘farm to fabulous’ ethos.
A huge amount of money has been spent on this makeover, and it shows. Gone are the dark velvet seats and red lampshades harking back to a seedier past, and in its place lots of white and earthy colours like green and brown to further emphasise the ‘farm to fabulous’ mentality.
If drinking is more your thing then the cocktail bar couldn’t be easier to find! It’s straight ahead as you come down the small set of stairs into the restaurant.
We thought the new molecular structure lights were pretty swish too!
Here’s the food and drink that we sampled last night.
As it was just a preview night with new staff and new dishes, we will return in a few weeks for a proper sit down meal and full review.
