In a Grade 1 listed former bank, Edinburgh finally has it's own branch of the expanding group.
Nisha Katona’s Liverpool-based operation has two branches in London (Charlotte Street and Westfield Stratford) offering her “very tasty” Indian street food – “with the occasional hint of raw spice”. The Lancashire-born former barrister launched the business in 2014 and now has 28 outlets around the country, whose “enjoyable, authentic food” is “really great for a chain”.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
Gaby Soutar reviewed the newly opened Mowgli, whose UK branches are now well into double figures (including Glasgow), and where “about a third of the seats are strung to the ceiling by rope”.
Edinburgh’s branch inhabits a “listed building and former bank, with its domed ceiling that makes it feel like a giant terrarium filled with fairy lights and a tree”.
There are “many low carbon footprint menu items” and “each dish had a distinct personality”. (16/20)
