Two Fat Ladies, At The Buttery, Glasgow. April 2011

Review by Kathy:  I found the most Amazing restaurant in Glasgow which I went to with two colleagues whilst at a conference.  There is a small step to get in but most wheelchairs would be able to get up it with no bother.  The front doors are double so both open.  Inside is flat all the way and the toilets are disabled friendly including having handles because one of their employees was disabled so they said this is how it needs to be and it was!  The ‘Ladies’ is a bit tight for chairs but still easily accessible. 

The food is STUNNING.  I had tempura salmon in a honey and sesame seed sauce to start with and ended up with hand made petit fours at the end of the evening and I could not find anything at all to find fault with.  Even when we said we needed 3 separate bills and we were all spread around the table they didn’t bat an eyelid and the whole dining experience was first class.  I wasn’t too good on my feet as I was waiting for my knee op but they couldn’t do enough for me.  service was there when you needed it but never intrusive.  in fact I was so impressed I went back again after conference had finished and they were just as good and just as helpful.  They do get booked up so advance booking is advisable.  Just tell them that you are in a wheelchair and they will be waiting for you to make sure everything runs very smoothly.  Not only that but when I asked how they made the blue cheese ice cream [yes, that's right,  to go with the pears in red wine and port sauce] chef actually gave me the whole recipe! 

They have 2 menus, one lunch and one pre / post theatre which is very inexpensive but still top quality and one a la carte which is not expensive.  Here’s the link http://twofatladiesrestaurant.com/buttery/menus/29

It really is one of the very best places I have ever eaten in and I have eaten in quite a few.  The whole evening from moment of arrival to the leaving at the front door was 5 star and could not be faulted.
