✍ Cookbook, Glasgow, Food & Drink

Glasgow foodies rejoice. Host Alistair Braidwood joins two of the city’s best-known chefs to discuss their latest mouthwatering guides — one to leading local eateries, and the other to your own kitchen. 

The third edition of Glasgow on a Plate by the legendary Ferrier Richardson features 20 of the best chefs and restaurants in Glasgow. Intelligently written and beautifully illustrated, each page reveals another example of the exciting culinary possibilities available in the city. This book will inspire you to explore the vibrant and creative Glasgow restaurant scene and try out some of the superb recipes from the city’s top chefs.

Meanwhile, restaurateur and Saturday Kitchen favourite Julie Lin celebrates all parts of her identity with Sama Sama: Comfort food from my Malaysian-Scottish kitchen. Encouraging simplicity for maximum joy in the kitchen, Julie teaches us to cook with soul, trust our palates and broaden our ideas of authenticity. Enjoy accessible dishes with explosive flavours, such as Chilli Crisp Puttanesca, Steak au Sichuan Poivre and Kaya Croissant-and-Butter Pudding.
