BrewDog
After waking up to some disappointing referendum results on Friday morning, we decided to visit the Kelvingrove again—this time not so close to closing time—giving us the opportunity to listen to the daily organ concert as well.
Friday was the day the new iPhone 6 launched, so both being Apple fans, we went to the Apple Store to see and feel it.
For dinner we selected another Glasgow classic: The Chippy Doon the Lane. Apparently you can batter and deep fry sausages as well…
After getting changed, we went for an Indian buffet at Bombay Blues. Then we were off to the West End: Byres Road, Tennent’s Bar—not to be confused with the brewery: we had ‘real ales’—the Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery, and of course BrewDog Glasgow. To sober up a bit again, Old Salty’s came to the rescue with calamari and steak pie with loads of chips.
Last day today. That means I had to say goodbye to my fellow travellers, after we visited the farmers’ market—a foodie paradise—and some shops for the very last time.
After an excellent burger at BBL I did some souvenir shopping myself, to end this day at—who could have guessed—BrewDog Edinburgh.
After lunch we climbed up Calton Hill to see the Nelson Monument, the National Monument and the incredible views of the city and sea. Then we discovered the New Town — including 21st Century Kilts—while still working on our tan—or sunburn, whichever applies.
For our final dinner we went for Indian at The Mosque Kitchen. The concept was a bit weird—think VUB restaurant—but it wasn’t bad and plenty.
After some insistence from my part, we ended up at BrewDog Edinburgh again.
BrewDog does some pretty weird stuff to their beer…
