Ranjit’s Kitchen is something of an institution in Glasgow’s south side. The head chef is Ranjit herself who creates the authentic taste of the Panjab and brings it to us in an informal and wholesome way. There is always a new daily sabji (curry) and daal to try, accompanied by two rotis (no rice), as this is the tradition for the region. We always choose one of each and Rooting Aboot suggests you order the special pakora because it’s the best in Glasgow. Tell me if I’m wrong.

You can’t book in advance, which is no bad thing. The restaurant has four long wooden tables and you just sit down when space becomes available. As a result, customers don’t hog them or linger too long when it gets really busy. Everyone just eats, enjoys the food and kindly vacates to let others do the same. They don’t sell alcohol, so this place is a bam-free zone.

They updated the menu to clearly show what’s vegan and vegetarian. Oh, and it’s cheap as chips too, which makes Ranjit’s such a winner in my book.
