Ka Pao
Ka Pao on Vinecombe street has become well-known and loved for its inventive small plates menu and unrivalled cocktail list.
The guide said: "A fun and affordable spot serving tasty, Asian-inspired cooking, Ka Pao is housed in the spacious, industrial-style basement of a former garage, a few streets away from Glasgow’s Botanical Gardens.
"Dishes like crispy duck leg with green papaya & jaew, or roast pork belly with burnt tomato sambal, choy sum & jasmine rice have immense flavour and depth.
"Friendly staff are well-versed in speedy, effective service and the buzz of happy diners is all around."
Celentano's
Newcomers Celentano's exploded onto the foodie scene this year bringing a unique Italian inspired dining experience to the uber-cool Cathedral House hotel.
The guide said: "New to the Glasgow dining scene, this simply decorated, homely-style bistro is situated on the ground floor of a boutique hotel close to the Necropolis.
"There’s an experienced chef at the helm and the modern, Italian-influenced cooking uses the finest Scottish ingredients and comes with plenty of flavour.
"Staff are keen to recommend dishes: choose from such delights as lasagne fritti with porcini and Cora Linn, or beef ragu pappardelle, with Lanark White."
