Fanny Trollopes Bistro (West End)

• My big sister was down visiting me and we were going to a show at the Hydro
• The location was right and I have been a handful of times before and liked it
• I had not been for a while after having a mediocre meal but every meal before that left with me raving about Fanny&rsquo
• S so this return visit was long overdue
• A bottle of red was ordered but for the life of me I can&rsquo
• The red wines are all priced between £
• I tentatively put some on my fork but it was actually lovely
• D have happily eaten it as a starter with a few more leaves and will keep an eye out for it next time
• Our first starter was smoked salmon kedgeree with crè
• Me fraiche was nice to bring some zingy creaminess into the dish
• I chose spicy mince koftas with a cucumber and mint dressing as my starter
• The cucumber and mint dressing was just like the tzatziki I was eating in Greece earlier in the year and I liked the aromatic koftas
• The honey and mustard on the ham almost melted into the gravy and the ham itself was melt in the mouth
• The weather was rubbish so we stuck with the comfort food theme and ordered sticky toffee pudding
• The sponge was soft and there was lots of sauce to scoop up with each mouthful
• Fanny Trollopes is another place in Glasgow that often flies under the radar and
• The pre theatre menu is remarkably good value for money and they nail the neighbourhood bistro brief
• The chicken and mushroom pie was raved about and unusually presented and the sea trout was a very generous portion
